W'hen the other fellow is set in his ways, he's obstinate; when you are, it is just firmness. When the other fellow does not like your friends he's prejudiced; when you do not like his, you are simply showing that you are a good judge of human Tiature. When the other fellow tries to treat somebody specially well, he's toadying: when you try the same game you are using tact. When the other picks flaws in things he is cranky; when you do, you are dis- criminating. When the other fellow says what he thinks, he's spiteful; when you do, you are frank. â€" Eupux Paris.
