The vanity of the sciences. Physical science will not console me for the ignorance of morality in the time of affliction. But the science of ethics will always console me for the ignorance of the physical sciences.
Blaise Pascal
Too much tail. All that jewelry weighs it down. Like vanity. Can`t nobody fly with all that shit. Wanna fly, you got to give up the shit that weighs you down.
Toni Morrison
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.
Jane Austen

Jane Austen
Men always want to be a woman`s first love. That is their clumsy vanity. We woman have a more subtle instinct about things. What we like is to be a man`s last romance.
Oscar Wilde
All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possibl...
T.E. Lawrence
I [showed] my tits and teeth. I`m useless at it. About 40 per cent of success as an actor is now based on whether you`re good at being interviewed and how you conduct yourself. And I`m really bad at that. On the Vanity Fair premiere
Romola Garai
I like work. If it`s not hard enough, I try to make it harder. I like the process of being daunted by it, tackling it, and knowing I can do it. (Vanity Fair - September 2004 - "Regally Blonde" by Leslie Bennetts)
Reese Witherspoon
We actors have to be conscious of ourselves; there`s vanity involved. There`s a competitiveness. There`s something that`s not appealing to me about myself that I try to get away from. I`m constantly trying. To see that in others, that doesn`t feel like ho...
Crystal Bernard
I`m having a wonderful time producing. There are good producers and bad producers. I`ve learned the hard way what not to do. The ultimate aim is to produce things I`m not actually in. I`m not looking for vehicles for myself. It`s not a vanity company.
Sigourney Weaver
As a famous person you think how you`re gonna end it, get away and have a normal life. I imagine my children are going to save me from my vanity and be my passion and fill whatever fears I have of the amazing time I`m having right now being gone. I don`t ...
Gwen Stefani
It was exciting, but for a while being typecast as Lois made my vanity and narcissism scream. Hadn`t people seen my other work? But now my grandkids watch it, and think I was Superman`s friend, so that`s a thrill.
Margot Kidder
[to Jay Leno regarding his topless Vanity Fair cover shoot] I don`t drink but I had a beer that night and they only did one setup like that. I`m a cheap date. What can I say?
Tom Cruise
I imagine having children will save me from my vanity and fill whatever fears I have. [on easing up on her career to consider a family, in Rolling Stone]
Gwen Stefani
[On relocating to Los Angeles, California and moving in with Raven-Symoné]: "We met recently at the Vanity Fair shoot and got along. Our apartment complex has chef and maid services."
Lindsay Lohan
Last year I went to the Vanity Fair party after the Oscars and I stood in the corner and had a lot of champagne. It`s very, very scary.
Keira Knightley
About riding: "Happily, when I`m working, I often seem to get jobs that give me the opportunity to ride - in Vanity Fair, Hamlet and Far from the Madding Crowd, for example. It is rather nice to do something I like and get paid for it. I have a quarter of...
Nathaniel Parker
An actor is an interpreter of other men`s words, often a soul which wishes to reveal itself to the world but dare not, a craftsman, a bag of tricks, a vanity bag, a cool observer of mankind, a child and at his best a kind of unfrocked priest who, for an h...
Alec Guinness
I don`t want to be a babe. I don`t want vanity to ever get in the way, because I think to maintain that, you have to be aware of yourself all the time, and that gets in the way of acting. My job`s not to be the beautiful person. My job is to be the best a...
Zooey Deschanel
I`m wary of what goal I set, because then I`ll have to accomplish it. (Vanity Fair - September 2004 - "Regally Blonde" by Leslie Bennetts)
Reese Witherspoon
The truest characters of ignorance are vanity, and pride and arrogance.
Samuel Butler
