1 " Personal emotions should be carefully monitored. Emotional ties are to be exploited but never felt. "
― Matt Kindt , MIND MGMT, Volume Three: The Home Maker
2 " One reason that the task of inventing manners is so difficult is that etiquette is folk custom, and people have emotional ties to the forms of their youth.
