Kural 991<\/p>\n
They say if a man is easily accessible to everyone,
\nthe virtue of courtesy will be easily accessible to him.
\nKural 992<\/p>\n
Loving kindness and birth in a good family–
\nthese two are said to confer on one a gracious manner.
\nKural 993<\/p>\n
Resemblance among humans is not that their bodies look alike.
\nReal similarities come from similar traits of courtesy.
\nKural 994<\/p>\n
The world commends the civility of those
\nwho combine fruitful effort and kindly benevolence.
\nKural 995<\/p>\n
Disparaging words are painful even when uttered in jest.
\nHence, knowers of human nature are courteous even to enemies.
\nKural 996<\/p>\n
The world exists because civilized men exist.
\nWithout them, it would collapse into mere dust.
\nKural 997<\/p>\n
Though their minds are as sharp as a wood rasp,
\nmen without human decency are as wooden as a tree.
\nKural 998<\/p>\n
It is disgraceful to be discourteous towards others,
\neven to unfriendly fellows who treat you unjustly.
\nKural 999<\/p>\n
To those who cannot smile in joy, this wide world
\nlies engulfed in darkness, even in broad daylight.
\nKural 1000<\/p>\n
Great wealth amassed by men who lack sweet courtesy
\nis like good milk turned sour in an unclean vessel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
