Do not talk of display oratory.
Do not try to lead in conversation looking around to enforce silence.
Lay aside affected, silly etiquette for the natural dictates of the heart.
Direct the conversation where others can join with you and impart to you useful information.
Avoid oddity. Eccentricity is shallow vanity.
Be modest.
Be what you wish to seem.
Avoid repeating a brilliant or clever saying.
