‎"There's a whole lot of people in trouble tonight from the disease of conceit
Whole lot of people seeing double tonight from the disease of conceit
Give you delusions of grandeur and evil eye
Give you the idea that you're too good to die
Then ...they bury you from your head to your feet
From the disease of conceit."

Bob Dylan
