A Smart Girl's Guide to Manners Quotes

“A girl who chooses to use good manners is telling the world she believes that other people matter as much as she does. She's saying that life isn't about what one person does for herself but about what people can do together for the common good.”
― Nancy Holyoke, A Smart Girl's Guide to Manners

“...manners are not so much a set of rules as they are a language you use to tell other people what they can expect from you.
...
Are you trustworthy?
Do you think only of yourself?
Would you make a good friend or a poor one?”
― Nancy Holyoke, A Smart Girl's Guide to Manners
