Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.
虚荣与骄傲是截然不同的两件事,尽管字面上常常当做同义词用。一个人可以骄傲而不虚荣。骄傲多半不外乎我们对我们自己的估价,虚荣却牵涉到我们希望别人对我们的看法。

最爱的书之一,再次翻阅,还是很有感触。
