More From Christopher Morley

Manners are the root, laws only the trunk and branches. manners are the archetypes of laws. manners are laws in their infancy; laws are manners fully grown,--or, manners are children, which, when they grow up, become laws.
Children Growing Up Law
Manners are made up of trivialities of deportment which can be easily learned if one does not happen to know them; manner is personality - the outward manifestation of one's innate character and attitude toward life.... etiquette must, if it is to be of more than trifling use, include ethics as well as manners. certainly what one is, is of far greater importance than what one appears to be.

Pygmalion Heaven Soul
I think we all mistake certain things for happiness. i think we mistake comfort for happiness and we mistake pleasure for happiness, and entertainment for happiness, when really these are just things we use as proxies for our happiness. we use them to cheer us up or try and achieve brief happiness, when really happiness is something much more profound and long lasting and exists within us.

Doe Manners Made
God has created all things for good; all things for their greatest good; everything for its own good. what is the good of one is not the good of another; what makes one man happy would make another unhappy. god has determined, unless i interfere with his plan, that i should reach that which will be my greatest happiness. he looks on me individually, he calls me by my name, he knows what i can do, what i can best be, what is my greatest happiness, and he means to give it me.

If we are prepared to take the life of another being merely in order to satisfy our taste for a particular type of food, then that being is no more than a means to our end.

If you took all of my money away, i would have it right back. i don't really care about money. i mean i do but why worry about it because i can make my own money all the time.
