The title of my post, "the Fatal Conceit", is taken from the title of a book published in 1988 by Friedrich Hayek.(本文的标题，“致命的自负”，取自弗里德里希·哈耶克于1988年出版的一本书的书名。)
He was tingling with life and also top-heavy with conceit.(他十分兴奋，跃跃欲试，又自负得得意忘形。)
He bore the honor gravely and with no untoward conceit, as though it were only his due.(他严肃对待这种荣誉，不骄傲自大，好像这不过是他的本份。)
Modesty helps one to go forward [make progress]; conceit makes one lag behind.(虚心使人进步，骄傲使人落后。)
The conceit and the language skew a little older, so this is a nifty book to read with your kids.(书中巧妙的想象和语言有一点倾向于年龄大点的人，因此这是一本很好的可以和孩子一起读的书。)
The idea of the wind singing is a romantic conceit.(风儿在唱歌这一巧妙的比喻很有浪漫色彩。)
As a simple conceit, let me present a number of versions of a very simple utility that lists files and Numbers them.(作为一个简单的小例子，让我来介绍一个特别简单的工具的多个版本，它可以列出文件并对其进行编号。)
Conceit is associated with stupidity and ignorance.(骄傲的朋友是愚蠢和无知。)
But this is only a conventional literary conceit.(但是这只是一种因袭的文人自负而已。)
