If we think we regulate printing, thereby to rectify manners, we must regulate all regulations and pastimes, all that is delightful to man (Manners Quotes)
The weekly cartoons, as were my plays, came from a sense of criticism, criticism of the times, critical of the culture, of our manners and attitudes towards each other. The children’s books come from the reverse. They’re more supportive, since we’re living in a time where we talk more about kids and do less, we talk about balancing the budget and we do it by cutting education (Manners Quotes)
The mother must set the example in holding out the shrine as the heart of the house hold! She must enforce discipline over the children in personal cleanliness in humility and hospitality, in good manners and acts of service (Manners Quotes)
Grandeur of effect is produced by two different ways which seem entirely opposed to each other. One is by reducing the colors to little more than chiaroscuro... and the other, by making the colors very distinct and forcible... but still, the presiding principle of both those manners is simplicity (Manners Quotes)
It is an agreeable and yet a painful sense of novelty to stand for the first time in the midst of a people whose language and manners are different from one’s own (Manners Quotes)
The large and rapid fortunes by which vulgar and ignorant people become possessed of splendid houses, splendidly furnished, do not of course, give them the feelings and manners of gentle folks (Manners Quotes)
A good many causes tend to make good masters and mistresses quite as rare as good servants... The large and rapid fortunes by which vulgar and ignorant people become possessed of splendid houses, splendidly furnished, do not, of course, give them the feelings and manners of gentle folks, or in any way really raise them above the servants they employ, who are quite aware of this fact, and that the possession of wealth is literally the only superiority their employers have over them (Manners Quotes)
Your manners will depend very much upon the quality of what you frequently think on; for the soul is as it were tinged with the colour and complexion of thought (Manners Quotes)
A man of variable mind is not one man, but several men in one; he multiplies himself as often as he changes his taste and manners; he is not this minute what he was the last, and will not be the next what he is now; he is his own successor (Manners Quotes)
The finest and most beautiful ideas on morals and manners have been swept away before our times, and nothing is left for us but to glean after the ancients and the ablest amongst the moderns (Manners Quotes)
If we would succeed in works of the imagination, we must offer a mild morality in the midst of rigid manners; but where the manners are corrupt, we must consistently hold up to view an austere morality (Manners Quotes)
The essence of good manners consists in making it clear that one has no wish to hurt. When it is clearly necessary to hurt, it must be done in such a way as to make it evident that the necessity is felt to be regrettable (Manners Quotes)
Laws ought to be fashioned unto the manners and conditions of the people whom they are meant to benefit, and not imposed upon them according to the simple rule of right (Manners Quotes)
Manners are a way of getting what you want without appearing to be an absolute swine (Manners Quotes)
What we need in the world is manners... I think that if, instead of preaching brotherly love, we preached good manners, we might get a little further. It sounds less righteous and more practical (Manners Quotes)
Eating is aggressive by nature, and the implements required for it could quickly become weapons; table manners are, most basically, a system of taboos designed to ensure that violence remains out of the question (Manners Quotes)
Any change in customs... takes generations to accomplish, and must come about by general consent. Even a superficial study of sociology shows the futility of past efforts to make a lasting change in manners by an act of will or authority (Manners Quotes)
Country manners. Even if somebody phones up to tell you your house is burning down, they ask first how you are (Manners Quotes)
My dear father always said that when everybody had a telephone nobody would have any manners, because there wouldn’t be time for them. And of course he was perfectly right (Manners Quotes)
Custom governs the world; it is the tyrant of our feelings and our manners and rules the world with the hand of a despot (Manners Quotes)
I don’t like it when people don’t hold the door. I don’t know, that really bugs me... I guess I like manners (Manners Quotes)
I don’t do plays without jokes anymore. I’ve retired from those plays. I think it’s bad manners to invite people to sit in the dark for two and a half hours and not tell them the joke (Manners Quotes)
It’s interesting to observe that almost all truly worthy men have simple manners, and that simple manners are almost always taken as a sign of little worth (Manners Quotes)
To be always thinking about your manners is not the way to make them good; the very perfection of manners is not to think about yourself (Manners Quotes)
To the real artist in humanity, what are called bad manners are often the most picturesque and significant of all (Manners Quotes)
When words and manners leave you no space for yourself make very personal very clear and your obstructions will join you or disappear (Manners Quotes)
History is a voice forever sounding across the centuries the laws of right and wrong. Opinions alter, manners change, creeds rise and fall, but the moral law is written on the tablets of eternity (Manners Quotes)
Their virtues lived in their children. The family changed its persons but not its manners, and they continued a blessing to the world from generation to generation (Manners Quotes)
Music is a discipline, and a mistress of order and good manners, she makes the people milder and gentler, more moral and more reasonable (Manners Quotes)
In the ordinary course of things, how many succeed in society merely by virtue of their manners, while others, however meritorious, fail through lack of them? After all, it’s only barbarians who wear uncut precious stones (Manners Quotes)
