Quotation from Princess Puck by U.L. Silberrad
Mr. Dare's definition of a lady – one … who considers others whomever by words or deed causes unnecessary pain, who listens sympathetically, talks pleasantly, never says a great deal even when she feels much or knows more.
One who does her mental & moral washing in private, but is not afraid to do her duty in public; who respects the secrets of others, the honour of her family, & her own self more than all.
One who speaks with tact, acts with discretion, & places God before fashion without needlessly advertising the fact to the annoyance of the rest of the world.
