Text Quotes
Taste is more to do with manners than appearances. Taste is both myth and reality; it is not a style  (Manners Quotes) That survival instinct, that will to live, that need to get back to life again, is more powerful than any consideration of taste, decency, politeness, manners, civility. Anything. It’s such a powerful force  (Manners Quotes) I loathe hecklers. I haven’t got a good syllable to say. When you come out of the club circuit and into the concert hall, they should be gone. There’s an element of manners that should tell you that the ticket is dear and it’s a different venue  (Manners Quotes) I think sometimes people project things on you, but I’m trying to handle everything that’s happened to me with a certain amount of grace, dignity and good manners. You just can’t necessarily win all the time  (Manners Quotes) The transition state of manners and language cannot be too often insisted upon: for this affected the process at both ends, giving the artist in fictitious life an uncertain model to copy and unstable materials to work in  (Manners Quotes) Promptitude is not only a duty, but is also a part of good manners; it is favorable to fortune, reputation, influence, and usefulness; a little attention and energy will form the habit, so as to make it easy and delightful  (Manners Quotes) You can get through life with bad manners, but it’s easier with good manners  (Manners Quotes) Command that no one be received, or kept to be of your household indoors or without, if one has not reasonable belief of them that they are faithful, discreet, and painstaking in the office for which they are received, and withal honest and of good manners  (Manners Quotes) Persian social manners are well known, and there is no other society that can compete with them  (Manners Quotes) Good manners have much to do with the emotions. To make them ring true, one must feel them, not merely exhibit them  (Manners Quotes) The test of good manners is to be able to put up pleasantly with bad ones  (Manners Quotes) To have some account of my thoughts, manners, acquaintance and actions, when the hour arrives in which time is more nimble than memory, is the reason which induces me to keep a journal: a journal in which I must confess my every thought, must open my whole heart!  (Manners Quotes) When every benefit received is a right, there is no place for good manners, let alone for gratitude  (Manners Quotes) The dinner table is the center for the teaching and practicing not just of table manners but of conversation, consideration, tolerance, family feeling, and just about all the other accomplishments of polite society except the minuet  (Manners Quotes) The talent of a meat packer, the morals of a money changer, and the manners of an undertaker  (Manners Quotes) Our children will not survive our habits of thinking, our failures of the spirit, our wreck of the universe into which we bring new life as blithely as we do. Mostly, our children will resemble our own misery and spite and anger, because we give them no choice about it. In the name of motherhood and fatherhood and education and good manners, we threaten and suffocate and bind and ensnare and bribe and trick children into wholesale emulation of our ways  (Manners Quotes) What we need to question is bricks, concrete, glass, our table manners, our utensils, our tools, the way we spend our time, our rhythms. To question that which seems to have ceased forever to astonish us. We live, true, we breathe, true; we walk, we go downstairs, we sit at a table in order to eat, we lie down on a bed on order to sleep. How? Where? When? Why? Describe your street. Describe another. Compare  (Manners Quotes) Have compassion for everyone you meet, even if they don’t want it.

You do not know what wars are going on down there where the spirit meets the bone  (Manners Quotes) It was good, too, to remember how hard a lot of people had to work to keep a kingdom running well, and that it was simply good manners to let them know, from time to time, how valued they were  (Manners Quotes) The most elementary of good manners... at a social gathering one does not bring up the subject of personalities, sad topics or unfortunate facts, religion, or politics  (Manners Quotes) The line between the public life and the private life has been erased, due to the rapid decline of manners and courtesy. There is a certain crudeness and crassness that has suddenly become accepted behavior, even desirable  (Manners Quotes) In his opinion, working was vastly overrated. Particularly as a way to build character, for everyone who engaged in it was far too snappish and fussy, and seemed to have no manners at all  (Manners Quotes) Here was an occasion, she thought, for indulging in that deliberate rudeness which only persons with habitually good manners have the right to commit  (Manners Quotes) The problem is that it has become politically awkward to draw attention to absolutes of bad and good. In place of manners, we now have doctrines of political correctness, against which one offends at one’s peril: by means of a considerable circular logic, such offences mark you as reactionary and therefore a bad person. Therefore if you say people are bad, you are bad  (Manners Quotes) In his heart, he knew that there was no reason to be impolite to someone, even if they did work for you.

Full bellies breed gentle manners. The pinch of famine makes monsters  (Manners Quotes) Faithfulness to the truth of history involves far more than a research, however patient and scrupulous, into special facts. Such facts may be detailed with the most minute exactness, and yet the narrative, taken as a whole, may be unmeaning or untrue. The narrator must seek to imbue himself with the life and spirit of the time. He must study events in their bearings near and remote; in the character, habits, and manners of those who took part in them. He must himself be, as it were, a sharer or a spectator of the action he describes  (Manners Quotes) ... Virtue, morality, and religion.
