Of course, it is no easy matter to be polite; in so far, I mean, 
as it requires us to show great respect for everybody, whereas 
most people deserve none at all; and again in so far as it 
demands that we should feign the most lively interest in people, 
when we must be very glad that we have nothing to do with them.
