Haughtiness \Haugh"ti*ness\, n. [For hauteinness. See
{Haughty}.]
The quality of being haughty; disdain; arrogance.
Syn: Arrogance; disdain; contemptuousness; superciliousness;
loftiness.
Usage: {Haughtiness}, {Arrogance}, {Disdain}. Haughtiness
denotes the expression of conscious and proud
superiority; arrogance is a disposition to claim for
one's self more than is justly due, and enforce it to
the utmost; disdain in the exact reverse of
condescension toward inferiors, since it expresses and
desires others to feel how far below ourselves we
consider them. A person is haughty in disposition and
demeanor; arrogant in his claims of homage and
deference; disdainful even in accepting the deference
which his haughtiness leads him arrogantly to exact.
