vanity

I like John Grisham's writings. He has this very distinct style of writing, its quite powerful. But I never wanted to read his book "The Devil's Advocate" - may be because of the subject, which seem so super-natural and religious, uh actually, Christian.

But I did watch that movie yesterday. Al Pacino is perfect in doing the devil in the movie!!! My favorite quote from the movie is, when the devil says...

Vanity is one of my favorite sins.

By the way, I really didn't know the meaning of Vanity, until I looked it up in dictionary. 'Vanity' means excessive pride in oneself and/or one's accomplishments.

The movie has a really interesting theme - the devil, trying to establish his foothold in the society, using the law. The Law as the back door for the devil!!! Its an interesting attempt, and I think, it worked OK for the movie.
