There is nothing so cheap az politeness. It iz as cheap and az kind, too, aE giving a man a ooal from yure fire to lite hiz'n with. The man who kan say "Yes" and " No " at the right time haz the greatest command of language. Suckeess iz not aUwuets the true kriterion to judge things by, but it is a dredphufi hard thing to argy against. I hey often seen men whoze precepts didn't agree with their praoktiss (i am afrade i am one of this kind myself), and yet they waz more honest m this one than they waz wicked m the other. A wize man iz the same the world over but phools vary ackording to lati tude and longitude. Kuriosity iz common to all. The man who haz no kuriosity haz no brains, but thare is a cheap of idle kuriosity, which is anxious to kno things, simply because others kno them. I hay thought, between the two it waz best to tell a solid lie than to tell haff the truth. — Josh Billing s.
