Good manners are not to be put on and off with one's best clothes. Politeness is an article for every-day wear. If you don it only on special and rare occasions, it will be sure to sit awkwardly upon you. If you are not well behaved in your own family circle, you will hardly be truly so anywhere, however strictly you may conform to the observances of good breeding, when in society. The true gentleman or lady is a gentleman or lady at all times and in all places, at home as well as abroad, in the field, or workshop, or in the kitchen, as well as in the parlor. A snob is a snob always and everywhere.

Respuesta :

Answer: Be kind for yourself and the rest will naturally follow

Explanation:

I took it as being the best version of yourself is key for others but most importantly for you. Being kind behind closed doors and with nothing to gain and no one watching is the key to being a better person naturally and will grow to evolve as such. If you are only doing it for someone else to see, is it really genuine?
