Manners

"Manners are the happy way of doing things; each once a stroke of genius or of love- now repeated and hardened into usage. They form at last a rich varnish, with which the routine of life is washed, and its details adorned. If they are superficial, so are the dew drops which give such depth to the morning meadows."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
