call me awful, but i never actually finished "The book theif" (i was borrowing it from a friend and she moved away to college when i was part of the way through, taking it with her).

this, however, was one of those lines that stood out to me. like black on white. no, like blood on white.

“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.” <br /> ― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
