Answer :

'Pride comes/goes before a fall' is a common saying which, according to the Cambridge English Dictionary, means 'said to emphasize that if you are too confident about your abilities, something bad will happen that shows that you are not as good as you think.'

The theme 'pride goes before a fall' has been explored in the following short stories :

1. 'The Storyteller' by Saki
