JOHN LOCKE. To show external deference to our superiors is proper ; to seem to yield to them in opinion is meanness. SAMUEL JOHNSON. Dr. Johnson insisted that politeness was of great consequence in society. It is, said he, fictitious benevolence. Depend upon it the want of it never fails to pro- duce something disagreeable to one or other. LIFE OF SAMUEL JOHNSON. The manners of the Eastern warrior were grave, graceful, and decorous Both were courteous ; but the courtesy of the Christian seemed ...to flow rather from a good-humoured sense of what was due to others ; that of the Moslem, from a high feeling of what was to be expected from himself. SIR WALTER SCOTT. 86 MANNERS. The glory of the farmer is that in this division of labours it is his part to create. Nature never hurries. The lesson one learns in fishing, yachting, hunting or planting, is the manners of Nature : patience with the delays of wind and sun, delays of the season, bad weather, excess or lack of water. The farmer stands well on the world.
