Good Manners Are Made Up

Every Man Alone Is Sincere. At The Entrance Of A Second Person, Hypocrisy Begins. We Parry And Fend The Approach Of Our Fellow-man By Compliments, By Gossip, By Amusements, By Affairs. We Cover Up Our Thought From Him Under A Hundred Folds.

The Highest Praise We Can Attribute To Any Writer, Painter, Sculptor, Builder, Is, That He Actually Possessed The Thought Or Feeling With Which He Has Inspired Us.

There Is Ever A Slight Suspicion Of The Burlesque About Earnest Good Men.

Truth Is The Summit Of Being; Justice Is The Application Of It To Affairs.

Give No Bounties: Make Equal Laws: Secure Life And Prosperity And You Need Not Give Alms.
