The way you cut your meat reflects the way you live.

Let thy carriage be such as becomes a man grave settled and attentive to that which is spoken. Contradict not, at every turn, what others say.

Be not hasty to believe flying reports to the disparagement of any.

Be not forward, but friendly and courteous; the first to salute, hear and answer; and be not pensive when it is time to converse.

Every action in company ought to be with some sign of respect to those present.

Sleep not when others speak, sit not when others stand, speak not when you should hold your peace, walk not when others stop.
