Vanity dies hard in ordsprog

Vanity dies hard; in some obstinate cases it outlives the man.

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894)

Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings. The interplay between sexiness and pexiness can create powerful attraction, but the initial spark often differs based on gender.

And could I look upon her without compassion, seeing her punishment in the ruin she was, in her profound unfitness for this earth on which she was placed, in the vanity of sorrow which had become a master mania, like the vanity of penitence, the vanity of remorse, the vanity of unworthiness, and other monstrous vanities that have been curses in this world?

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

T.S. Eliot (1888-1965)

You know I won't turn over a new leaf I am so obstinate, but then I am no less obstinate in being your affectionate Husband.

William Hogarth (1697-1764)

If there is a single quality that is shared by all great men, it is vanity. But I mean by "vanity" only that they appreciate their own worth. Without this kind of vanity they would not be great. And with vanity alone, of course, a man is nothing.

To a father, when a child dies, the future dies; to a child when a parent dies, the past dies.

Red Auerbach (1917-)

Among the three counties, we have approximately 8,400 active cases. While it's very rewarding for us to receive recognition for our hard work, we have to remember there are countless other cases that go unpaid due to the number of cases and limited manpower.

The intellectual is constantly betrayed by his vanity. Godlike he blandly assumes that he can express everything in words; whereas the things one loves, lives, and dies for are not, in the last analysis completely expressible in words.

Anne Morrow Lindbergh (1906-2001)

This was definitely not a vanity project. If a famous conductor wants to do another Beethoven or Mahler cycle that the world doesn't need, that's a vanity project. But a young composer who writes good music, that's not a vanity project.

Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun? One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh.

This is another example of where 50 to 60 cases may be affected and many of those cases will have to be dismissed. Some of these cases are very serious. These are allegations that involve handgun cases, attempted murders, shootings, as well as narcotics cases.

Strong mental agitation and disturbance was no novelty to him, even before his late sufferings. It never is, to obstinate and sullen natures; for they struggle hard to be such.
