Generosity And Gratitude Are Inseparably Linked.

The Etiquette Business Has Its Emergencies, Heaven Knows, But It Is In The Nature Of Etiquette Emergencies That Once One Realizes What One Has Done, It Is Too Late. One Might As Well Get A Good Night's Sleep And Send Flowers With An Apology In The Morning.

When Someone Has Tried To Please You, It Is Rude, As Well As Disheartening, To Respond By Announcing That The Effort Was A Failure.

Do You Have A Kinder, More Adaptable Friend In The Food World Than Soup? Who Soothes You When You Are Ill? Who Refuses To Leave You When You Are Impoverished And Stretches Its Resources To Give A Hearty Sustenance And Cheer? Who Warms You In The Winter And Cools You In The Summer? Yet Who Also Is Capable Of Doing Honor To Your Richest Table And Impressing Your Most Demanding Guests? Soup Does Its Loyal Best, No Matter What Undignified Conditions Are Imposed Upon It. You Don't Catch Steak Hanging Around When You're Poor And Sick, Do You?

Miss Manners Herself, While Never Rude, Is Given To Pulling A Fast Pinch In The Way Of A Handshake On Those Who Believe In Kissing On, Not Even The First Date, But The First Sighting.
