Anthony Trollope
No man thinks there is much ado about nothing when the ado is about himself.

Benjamin Franklin
Most people dislike vanity in others, whatever share they have of it themselves; but I give it fair quarter, wherever I meet with it, being persuaded that it is often productive of good to the possessor, and to others who are within his sphere of action: and therefore, in many cases, it would not be altogether absurd if a man were to thank God for his vanity among the other comforts of life.

Estee Lauder
Never "just run out for a few minutes" without looking your best. This is not vanity -- it's self-liking. Your face is always on display.
