Bad manners make a journalist.
Wilde, Oscar
The test of good manners is to be able to put up pleasantly with bad ones.
Willkie, Wendell L.
To the real artist in humanity, what are called bad manners are often the most picturesque and significant of all.
Whitman, Walt
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
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.
O'Connor, Flannery
Nothing is so great an example of bad manners as flattery. If you flatter all the company, you please none; If you flatter only one or two, you offend the rest.
Swift, Jonathan
I do not much dislike the matter, but the manner of his speech.
Shakespeare, William
No good poetry is ever written in a manner twenty years old, for to write in such a manner shows conclusively that the writer thinks from books, convention and clich?, not from real life.
Pound, Ezra
While one should always study the method of a great artist, one should never imitate his manner. The manner of an artist is essentially individual, the method of an artist is absolutely universal. The first is personality, which no one should copy; the second is perfection, which all should aim at.
Wilde, Oscar
Style is not something applied. It is something that permeates. It is of the nature of that in which it is found, whether the poem, the manner of a god, the bearing of a man. It is not a dress.
Stevens, Wallace
