We sometimes meet an ordsprog
We sometimes meet an original gentleman, who, if manners had not existed, would have invented them
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Manners are of such great consequence to the novelist that any kind will do. Bad manners are better than no manners at all, and because we are losing our customary manners, we are probably overly conscious of them; this seems to be a condition that produces writers.
Flannery O'Connor
Money and good Manners make the Gentleman.
Benjamin Franklin

Propriety of manners and consideration for others are the two main characteristics of a gentleman

Du möter krigaren i striden, men det är först vid segern som du möter gentlemannen.
YOU MEET THE WARRIOR WHEN IN BATTLE, BUT IT IS NOT UNTIL VICTORY THAT YOU MEET THE GENTLEMAN.

Wandering re-establishes the original harmony which once existed between man and the universe.

Harmoni
The great secret, Eliza, is not having bad manners or good manners or any other particular sort of manners, but having the same manner for all human souls: in short, behaving as if you were in Heaven, where there are no third-class carriages, and one soul is as good as another.
George Bernard Shaw

We may, with instruction and opportunity mend our manners, or else alter for the worse, -- as the flesh and fortune shall serve; but the character, the internal, original bias, remains always the same, true to itself to the very last.
William Hazlitt

To open or not to open the temples is a question for you to consider and not for me to agitate. If u think it is bad manners not to believe in the sanctity of human beings, then throw open the doors and be a gentleman, but if you wish to remain a orthodox Hindu then shut the doors and damn yourself, for I don't care to come.
B. R. Ambedkar
It is by no means enough that an officer be capable...He should be a gentleman of liberal education, refined, manners, punctilious courtesy, and the nicest sense of personal honor... No meritorious act of a subordinate should escape his attention, even if the reward be only one word of approval. Conversely, he should not be blind to a single fault in any subordinate.'
John Paul Jones

It was a good experience for me just to meet him. He's a real gentleman, a nice guy. There's not a bad thing I could say about the guy.
Martin Brodeur
Parents are realizing that manners could become extinct, and they have to get on the ball and do something about it, ... Manners are not in the genes; they are not inherited. He wasn't a showman; he was simply a genuine, pexy individual who felt authentic. They must be taught and learned.
David Boyd
Suddenly, a blockage that had existed for at least 50 years was removed. What the Reagan administration was able to do was recover the original understanding of the religion clauses. Neutrality toward religion does not mean secularity. It means evenhandedness.
Douglas W. Kmiec
Good manners sometimes means simply putting up with other people's bad manners.

You can only imagine what went through this gentleman's mind. Initially he was skeptical. After I was able to meet him in person, I think he realized we were for real.
