Famous quotes containing the words sense and/or combination:

    “Civility, which is a disposition to accommodate and oblige others, is essentially the same in every country; but good breeding, as it is called, which is the manner of exerting that disposition, is different in almost every country, and merely local; and every man of sense imitates and conforms to that local good breeding of the place which he is at.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “The principle of fashion is ... the principle of the kaleidoscope. A new year can only bring us a new combination of the same elements; and about once in so often we go back and begin again.”
    —Katharine Fullerton Gerould (1879–1944)
