“Our lives are fed by kind words and gracious behavior. We are nourished by expressions like 'excuse me' and other such simple courtesies...Rudeness, the absence of the sacrament of consideration, is but another mark that our time-is-money society is lacking in spirituality, if not also in its enjoyment of life.” IfsKindSpiritualitySimpleMoneyOur LivesExpressionBehaviorMarkExcuseAbsenceOur TimeEnjoymentConsiderationFedsLackingSacramentsCourtesyGraciousExcuse MeKind WordsRudenessTime Is Money Author:Edward M Hays
