In this excerpt from Jack London’s short story “To Build a Fire,” which sentences best show that the protagonist could be seen as prideful in his abilities rather than ignorant of his surroundings?
He was feeding it with twigs the size of his finger. Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. Any man who was a man could travel alone. Lifeless they were, for he could scarcely make them move together to grip a twig, and they seemed remote from his body and from him.

What sentence seems prideful to you? I know which one seems prideful to me. It's towards the middle of the excerpt. If that doesn't give you your answer tag me and I'll try to make it more clear.
