Book of Etiquette/Volume 1/Part 2

by Lillian Eichler

 

PART II

"Politeness itself is always the same. The rules of etiquette which are merely the forms in which it finds expression, vary with time and place. A sincere regard for the rights of others, in the smallest matters as well as the largest; genuine kindness of heart; good taste and self command, which are the foundations of good manners, are never out of fashion."

—Samuel R. Wells.
