must look into other people as well as at them. Lord

friendship; and he who plants kindness gathers love.
Basil
A
man's own good breeding is the best security against
other people's ill manners.

to your own lot: to mitigate another's grief, is to
alleviate or dispel your own.

are far more liable to catch the vices than the virtues
of our associates.

to be treated by others
as you have treated others.

less people speak of their greatness,

who sedulously attends, pointedly asks, calmly speaks,
coolly answers and ceases when he has no more to say
is in possession of some of the best requisites of man.

good word is an easy obligation; but not to speak ill
requires only our silence; which costs us nothing.
