Deontology Theoretical Ch. Pride & Vanity

Pride is apt naturally to be conjoined with taciturnity; vanity
with talkativeness. The proud man sits still waiting
for those demonstrations of esteem which, with more or less of expectation
it is his wish to receive: and which would not be
demonstrative indicative of a quantity sufficient to afford him a gratification,
unless they were spontaneous. He is therefore disposed He will not, or at least likes not to call for them:
he is content or at least disposed to wait for them: but to do so effectually, he must
have in a certain degree possess the quality faculty of self-command.
Esteem is the food he hungers for His meal must be a full one: but he is capable of fasting able to fast.
Not so the vain man. His appetite is still b
than that of the proud man. But though no quantity of that
ill food will def satiate it, yet a small quantity may suffices
to gratify it, and for a time to satisfy it. He therefore goes
from door, to door, and at every door calls for the food for
which he has a perpetually self-renewing appetite.
