As for your comment "The desire for glory is not a sin":

That which incites a man to do good is apparently not a sin. Now the desire of glory incites men to do good. Glory may also signify a certain clarity, wherefore Augustine says (Tract. lxxxii, c, cxiv in Joan.) that to be "glorified is the same as to be clarified. Therefore the desire for Glory, or "clarification", is not a sin.

However, glory as vanity is another matter. Glory may be called vain in three ways. First, on the part of the thing for which one seeks glory: as when a man seeks glory for that which is unworthy of glory, for instance when he seeks it for something frail and perishable: secondly, on the part of him from whom he seeks glory, for instance a man whose judgment is uncertain: thirdly, on the part of the man himself who seeks glory, for that he does not refer the desire of his own glory to a due end, such as God's honor, or the spiritual welfare of his neighbor.

Much of the above was taken from "Summa Theologica"
