Secondary virtues growing out of this branch of
Deontology, are the virtues of good breeding – which correspond and
pretty nearly to that class which the French call la Petite Morale.
Good breeding is that deportment on occasions of trivial inferior – & when
separately taken of trivial inferior importance – by which those acts are
abstained from which give annoyance to others. Where on similar occasions the acts are
done which give pleasure to others, they belong to the positive
or active, – not the negative or abstential branch. But it is to
the latter that most of the Laws of good breeding must be referred,
to and here its operation is the demand for its exercise is constant – & the
field of its action wide. In the The most ordinary and
indispensable personal prudence operates as a bridle upon rudeness
& bad-manners. The disposition to contribute in all unforbidden
shapes to the gratification of others is true politeness and to refrain
from all that can annoy them is true politeness.
