Galateo
Or, a Treatise on Politeness and Delicacy of Manners (Classic Reprint)
Description:... Excerpt from Galateo: Or, a Treatise on Politeness and Delicacy of Manners These are little indelicacies, which only convince us, that the fair creatures who are guilty of them are not entirely exempted from the frailties of humanity.
But there are many habits which people contract in their youth, and which, trifling as they may appear, often lead them into considerable inconveniencies. They are, perhaps, of such a nature, as their parents or preceptors are too indolent to correct, or too tender to shock them with or perhaps, may think them too trifling to be made the object of admonition and such as strangers.
