About This Quote

The phrase “Let us be more simple and less vain” is a short but powerful way of saying, “We should not strive so hard to be better than other people, as it only makes us look vain.” The message is that we should not be so boastful of our own abilities or try to prove ourselves to others. Instead of trying to be better than others, we should work harder to reach the same level as them.
