The conflict represented in the given quote is that of self vs. society.

Explanation:

The novel "The Outsiders" by S. E. Hinton tells the story of Ponyboy Curtis and his struggle to differentiate between what's right and wrong. He also finds it hard to grapple with his own identity where he deemed himself to be an outsider.

In the given quote or dialogue, Ponyboy admits it is hard enough to be labeled an outsider despite trying to ensure his goodness and strength. He criticizes the society's pre-determined classes of who is superior and inferior, in his case, him being a greaser no matter what happens while the Socs will always be the upper, higher class Socs even if they lose the fight. He questions "What kind of world is it where all I have to be proud of is a reputation for being a hood, and greasy hair?", suggesting a conflict of interest in himself and what the society thinks is right.

Thus, the conflict presented here is that of Ponyboy's self versus society.

the answer is something i don't know

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
