Starting from the primary schools, there must be compulsory 'Cosmos' classes throughout the education period. If a man thinks about and understands the universe, he will have wider horizons; he will be much less conceited and much more realistic. — Mehmet Murat Ildan
![Conceited Man Quotes By Owen Feltham Conceited Man Quotes By Owen Feltham](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-owen-feltham-734255.jpg)
Of all trees , I observe God hath chosen the vine, a low plant that creeps upon the helpful wall; of all beasts, the soft and patient lamb; of all fowls, the mild and guileless dove . Christ is the rose of the field, and the lily of the valley. When God appeared to Moses , it was not in the lofty cedar nor the sturdy oak nor the spreading palm; but in a bush, a humble, slender, abject shrub; as if He would, by these elections, check the conceited arrogance of man. — Owen Feltham

If there is one thing that will make a man peculiarly and insufferable self-conceited, it is to have his stomach behave itself, the first day at sea, when nearly all his comrades are seasick. — Mark Twain

But the conceited man did not hear him. Conceited people never hear anything but praise. — Antoine De Saint-Exupery
![Conceited Man Quotes By E.F. Benson Conceited Man Quotes By E.F. Benson](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-e-f-benson-1344481.jpg)
The functions of the human frame are, broadly speaking, known. They are a country, anyhow, that has been charted and mapped out. But outside that lie huge tracts of undiscovered country, which certainly exist, and the real pioneers of knowledge are those who, at the cost of being derided as credulous and superstitious, want to push on into
those misty and probably perilous places. I felt that I could be of more use by setting out without compass or knapsack into the mists than by sitting in a cage like a canary and chirping about what was known. Besides, teaching is very very bad for a man who knows himself only to be a learner: you only need to be a self-conceited ass to teach. — E.F. Benson
![Conceited Man Quotes By John Boyle O'Reilly Conceited Man Quotes By John Boyle O'Reilly](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-john-boyle-oreilly-1092377.jpg)
Social equity is based on justice; politics change on the opinion of the time. The black man's skin will be a mark of social inferiority so long as white men are conceited, ignorant, unjust, and prejudiced. You cannot legislate these qualities out of the white - you must steal them out by teaching, illustration, and example. — John Boyle O'Reilly
![Conceited Man Quotes By Epictetus Conceited Man Quotes By Epictetus](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-epictetus-768525.jpg)
Does a man reproach thee for being proud or ill-natured, envious or conceited, ignorant or detracting? Consider with thyself whether his reproaches are true. If they are not, consider that thou art not the person whom he reproaches, but that he reviles an imaginary being, and perhaps loves what thou really art, though he hates what thou appearest to be. — Epictetus
![Conceited Man Quotes By Sarah Silverman Conceited Man Quotes By Sarah Silverman](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-sarah-silverman-507177.jpg)
I buy water at the liquor store across the street from where I live. So I'm walking into the door, and standing, loitering, outside the door is a man. And I walk by him to go in, and he says, I want pussy! Now, I don't want to seem conceited or anything, but he was talking about me! — Sarah Silverman
![Conceited Man Quotes By Andre Malraux Conceited Man Quotes By Andre Malraux](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-andre-malraux-2051296.jpg)
His [Francisco Goya's] debt to the Christianity of the eighteenth century is contained in the idea that politics was just adopting from the Gospels: the conviction that man has a right to justice. Such a statement would seem utterly conceited to a Roman, who would doubtless have looked upon the Disasters as we look upon photographs of the amphitheatre ... But if Goya thought that man has not come onto the earth to be cut to pieces he thought that he must have come here for something. Is it to live in joy and honour? Not only that; it is to come to terms with the world. And the message he never ceased to preach, a message underlined by war, is that man only comes to terms with the world by blinding himself with childishness. — Andre Malraux
![Conceited Man Quotes By Margaret Mitchell Conceited Man Quotes By Margaret Mitchell](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-margaret-mitchell-1693614.jpg)
Rhett, do you really
is it to protect me that you
"
"Yes, my dear, it is my much advertised chivalry that makes me protect you." The mocking light began to dance in his black eyes and all signs of earnestness fled from his face. "And why? Because of my deep love for you, Mrs. Kennedy. Yes, I have silently hungered and thirsted for you and worshipped you from afar; but being an honorable man, like Mr. Ashley Wilkes, I have concealed it from you. You are, alas, Frank's wife and honor has forbidden my telling this to you. But even as Mr. Wilkes' honor cracks occasionally, so mine is cracking now and I reveal my secret passion and my
"
"Oh, for God's sake, hush!" interrupted Scarlett, annoyed as usual when he made her look like a conceited fool, and not caring to have Ashley and his honor become the subject of further conversation. "What was the other thing you wanted to tell me?"
"What! You change the subject when I am baring a loving but lacerated heart? — Margaret Mitchell
![Conceited Man Quotes By Tsunetomo Yamamoto Conceited Man Quotes By Tsunetomo Yamamoto](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-tsunetomo-yamamoto-1729287.jpg)
A man who can reason over trifles will become conceited, and will take pleasure in being described as 'odd'. He will start boasting that he was born with a personality that doesn't fit well with contemporary society, and be convinced that nobody else is above him. He will surely meet with divine retribution. Regardless of what abilities a man may possess, he will be of little use if rejected by others. People don't slight those who are eager to help and serve well, and who readily exhibit humility to their associates. — Tsunetomo Yamamoto
![Conceited Man Quotes By Laurence J. Peter Conceited Man Quotes By Laurence J. Peter](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-laurence-j-peter-1944068.jpg)
The more conceited members of the race think in terms of an endless ascent - or promotion ad infinitum. I would point out that, sooner or later, man must reach his level of life-incompetence. — Laurence J. Peter
![Conceited Man Quotes By C.S. Lewis Conceited Man Quotes By C.S. Lewis](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-c-s-lewis-2004554.jpg)
If a man thinks he is not conceited, he is very conceited indeed. — C.S. Lewis
![Conceited Man Quotes By Ralph Waldo Emerson Conceited Man Quotes By Ralph Waldo Emerson](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-ralph-waldo-emerson-2015075.jpg)
For what are they all in their high conceit, When man in the bush with God may meet? — Ralph Waldo Emerson
![Conceited Man Quotes By Loretta Chase Conceited Man Quotes By Loretta Chase](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-loretta-chase-1469233.jpg)
That man," she said in low but still audible tones, "is an idiot."
"Yes, madam, but he's all we've got."
"I may be stupid," Rupert said, "but I'm irresistibly attractive."
"Good grief, conceited too," she muttered.
"And being a great, dumb ox," he went on, "I'm wonderfully easy to manage."
She paused and turned to Beechey. "Are you sure there's no one else? — Loretta Chase
![Conceited Man Quotes By Jane Austen Conceited Man Quotes By Jane Austen](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-jane-austen-2140608.jpg)
Mr. Collins is a conceited, pompous, narrow-minded, silly man; you know he is, as well as I do; and you must feel, as well as I do, that the woman who married him cannot have a proper way of thinking. — Jane Austen
![Conceited Man Quotes By Anne Fortier Conceited Man Quotes By Anne Fortier](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-anne-fortier-2179984.jpg)
To me, there is only one God. An unnamed presence we'll never understand. Everything else is human politics. It was human beings who wrote the holy books, and human beings who made all the rules and rituals. In other words, it is human beings who turn life into hell. So yes'
he picked up his wine glass
'I try to live by the spirit of God, but not by the rules, because rules are made by man, and man is nothing but a fatally conceited flea on the mammoth of Creation. — Anne Fortier
![Conceited Man Quotes By Agatha Christie Conceited Man Quotes By Agatha Christie](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-agatha-christie-2188105.jpg)
Never worry about what you say to a man. They're so conceited that they never believe you mean it if it's unflattering. — Agatha Christie
![Conceited Man Quotes By Paul Goodman Conceited Man Quotes By Paul Goodman](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-paul-goodman-2252221.jpg)
Now shame is the only direct attack on conceit, the defensive image of oneself. Conceit is the common denominator of the Organization man, the hipster, and the juvenile delinquent-this is why I have been lumping them together. The conceited image of the self is usually not quite conscious, but it is instantly woundable; and people protect it with a conformity to their peers (oneself is superior). But the conceited groups differ in their methods of confirming and enhancing conceit: the juvenile delinquent by surly and mischievous destructiveness of the insulting privileged outgroup; the hipster by making fools of them with token performances; the Organization Man by status and salary. To his inner idol, they sacrifice the ingenuous exhibition and self-expression that could make them great, effective, or loved in the world; but that can also be shamed if it is mistaken, out of place, or disproportionate. — Paul Goodman
![Conceited Man Quotes By James Fenimore Cooper Conceited Man Quotes By James Fenimore Cooper](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-james-fenimore-cooper-320724.jpg)
So much the better - so much the better; for I have always found that a conceited man never knows content. All things prove it. Why have we not the wings of the pigeon, the eyes of the eagle, and the legs of the moose, if it had been intended that man should be equal to all his wishes? — James Fenimore Cooper
![Conceited Man Quotes By Brad Pitt Conceited Man Quotes By Brad Pitt](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-brad-pitt-1597636.jpg)
So I swear to God, I took one year where I just said, This year, I'm just going to cop to it and say to people, 'Okay, where did we meet?' But it just got worse. People were more offended. Every now and then, someone will give me context, and I'll say, 'Thank you for helping me.' But I piss more people off. You get this thing, like, 'You're being egotistical. You're being conceited.' But it's a mystery to me, man. I can't grasp a face and yet I come from such a design/aesthetic point of view. I am going to get it tested. — Brad Pitt
![Conceited Man Quotes By W.C. Fields Conceited Man Quotes By W.C. Fields](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-w-c-fields-1542514.jpg)
A man who overindulges lives in a dream. He becomes conceited. He thinks the whole world revolves around him; and it usually does. — W.C. Fields
![Conceited Man Quotes By Charles Haddon Spurgeon Conceited Man Quotes By Charles Haddon Spurgeon](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-charles-haddon-spurgeon-432386.jpg)
If I were a blind man and were told by you that you possess a faculty called sight, I should be unreasonable if I railed at you as a conceited enthusiast. — Charles Haddon Spurgeon
![Conceited Man Quotes By Mark Twain Conceited Man Quotes By Mark Twain](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-mark-twain-1309489.jpg)
It liberates the vandal to travel-you never saw a bigoted, opinionated, stubborn, narrow-minded, self-conceited, almighty mean man in your life but he had stuck in one place since he was born and thought God made the world and dyspepsia and bile for his especial comfort and satisfaction. — Mark Twain
![Conceited Man Quotes By Joyce Cary Conceited Man Quotes By Joyce Cary](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-joyce-cary-1249147.jpg)
A perfect God is the creation of a conceited man — Joyce Cary
![Conceited Man Quotes By George Eliot Conceited Man Quotes By George Eliot](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-george-eliot-968696.jpg)
You want to find out a mode of renunciation that will be an escape from pain. I tell you again, there is no such escape possible except by perverting or mutilating one's nature. What would become of me, if I tried to escape pain? Scorn and cynicism would be my only opium; unless I could fall into some kind of conceited madness, and fancy myself a favourite of Heaven because I am not a favourite with men. — George Eliot
![Conceited Man Quotes By Kenneth Grahame Conceited Man Quotes By Kenneth Grahame](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-kenneth-grahame-907531.jpg)
The world has held great Heroes,
As history-books have showed;
But never a name to go down to fame
Compared with that of Toad!
The clever men at Oxford
Know all that there is to be knowed.
But they none of them know one half as much
As intelligent Mr. Toad!
The animals sat in the Ark and cried,
Their tears in torrents flowed.
Who was it said, 'There's land ahead?'
Encouraging Mr. Toad!
The army all saluted
As they marched along the road.
Was it the King? Or Kitchener?
No. It was Mr. Toad.
The Queen and her Ladies-in-waiting
Sat at the window and sewed.
She cried, 'Look! who's that handsome man?'
They answered, 'Mr. Toad.'
There was a great deal more of the same sort, but too dreadfully conceited to be written down. These are some of the milder verses. — Kenneth Grahame
![Conceited Man Quotes By Mark Twain Conceited Man Quotes By Mark Twain](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-mark-twain-831100.jpg)
An oyster has hardly any more reasoning power than a scientist has; and so it it is reasonably certain that this one jumped to the conclusion that the nineteen million years was a preparation for him; but that would be just like an oyster, which is the most conceited animal there is, except man. And anyway, this one could not know, at that early date, that he was only an incident in a scheme, and that there was some more in the scheme yet. — Mark Twain
![Conceited Man Quotes By Katie MacAlister Conceited Man Quotes By Katie MacAlister](https://quotessayings.net/pics/conceited-man-quote-by-katie-macalister-765286.jpg)
You think I am very cute, you think me sexy, as well. I can read your thoughts, remember.
I hoisted myself up and slid across his body. You are conceited, arrogant, and domineering, everything I dislike in a man.
And you are independent, stubborn, and heedless, everything I dislike in a women.
I slid my hands under his back and kissed his dampened lips. So why is it that I love you so much?
He smiled a smug, masculine little smile and captured my legs with his.
Because I love you, and to be loved by a Dark One is enough for any woman.
I pinched him in a particularly vulnerable spot and allowed him to kiss me with all the sexy arrogance he had. — Katie MacAlister

There are three things you need to know about me before we go any farther. I'm the heiress to the Fitzsimmons' Vidalia onion empire and as southern as the day is long. (Now, you get the name, right?) I'll be thirty in less than two months, my curves have curves, I'm in love with the man of my dreams, and I have great hair (not conceited, just honest. Put away the claws.). And... I'm a vampire. (Not the biting kind. The cursed kind.) Any questions? — Julia Mills

It's about time you saw how fortunate you are. You have ... the most virile man in the world." He grinned, and in his eyes, black as sin, she saw the devil inside him laughing. But he was her devil, and she loved him madly.
"The most conceited, you mean," she said.
He bent his head until his great Usignuolo nose loomed as inch from hers, "The most virile, " he repeated firmly. "You are pathetically slow if you haven't learned that by now. Fortunately for you, I am the most patient of tutors. I shall prove it to you."
"You patience?" she asked.
"My virility. Both. Repeatedly." His black eyes glinted. "I will teach you a lesson you'll never forget. "
She tangled her fingers in his hair and brought his mouth to hers. "My wicked darling," she whispered. "I should like to see you try. — Loretta Chase
