"Courtesy. This is Love in society, Love in relation to etiquette. 'Love doth not behave itself unseemly.' Politeness has been defined as love in trifles. Courtesy is said to be love in little things. And the one secret of politeness is to love. Love cannot behave itself unseemly."
The Greatest Thing in the World, Henry Drummond.
"The nearer you come into relation with a person, the more necessary do tact and courtesy become."
O. W. Holmes.
"Kindness is the principle of tact, and respect for others the condition of 'savoir-vivre.'"
Amiel's Journal.
"Life is not so short but that there is always time enough for courtesy."
