But, yes, it's right.

"Pride goeth before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall" is the actual proverb, but it usually gets truncated, innaccurately to "Price goes before a fall".

I didn't ask!

I just sort of mumbled 'pride goes before .... hmm, I wonder' and got the answer :disturbd:

The Spartans didn't fight at Marathon because they were celebrating a religious festival, however when they turned up at Athens and found that the Athenians had beaten the Persians, they marched to Marathon to see for themselves!
