“In truth, politeness is artificial good humor, it covers the natural want of it, and ends by rendering habitual a substitute nearly equivalent to the real virtue. It is the practice of sacrificing to those whom we meet in society, all the little inconveniences and preferences which will gratify them, and deprive us of nothing worth a moment's consideration; it is the giving a pleasing and flattering turn to our expressions, which will conciliate others, and make them pleased with us as well as themselves. How cheap a price for the good will of another!” WantGivingWellsLittlesRealEndsMomentsTurnsNaturalPracticeVirtueSacrificeExpressionConsiderationSubstitutesArtificialPreferenceGood WillPolitenessFlatteringHabitualInconvenienceRenderingGood Humor Author:Thomas Jefferson
“Never for a moment do we lay aside our mistrust of the ideals established by society, and of the convictions which are kept by it in circulation.

“Respectability is a very good thing in its way, but it does not rise superior to all considerations. I would not for a moment venture to hint that it was a matter of taste; but I think I will go as far as this: that if a position is admittedly unkind, uncomfortable, unnecessary, and superfluously useless, although it were as respectableasthe Church of England, the sooner a man is out of it, the better for himself, and all concerned.” IfsThinkingMenWayDoeMatterMomentsChurchPositionTasteConcernedEnglandGood ThingsVery GoodSuperiorsUselessUncomfortableConsiderationUnnecessaryVentureHintsUnkindRespectabilityChurch Of England Author:Robert Louis Stevenson
“Any proposals for the future, while they should use to the full the experience gathered in the past, should not be restricted by consideration of sectional interests established in the obtaining of that experience. Now, when the war is abolishing landmarks of every kind, is the opportunity for using experience in a clear field. A revolutionary moment in the world's history is a time for revolutions, not for patching.” WorldShouldKindWarMomentsUsePastOpportunityInterestClearFieldsRevolutionRevolutionaryConsiderationProposalObtainingLandmarks Author:William Beveridge
