"She thanked me for the good opinion I entertained of her, and promised to receive G M 's offers in a way that should prevent a repetition of them. 'No, said I, 'you must not irritate him by incivility: he has it in his power to injure us.
Shaw spun out his story, so that Hugh quite recovered himself, and laughed as much as anybody at his uncle having formed a bad opinion of Bruin in the early twilight, for his incivility in not bowing to the passenger who left the coach. After dinner, Phil thought it time to be off to Crofton.
Hence, too, some excuse for the common incivility of our friends when they say to us, "Well, old man, I read your notice on the ; tell me, is it worth going to see?"
For if once a man indulges himself in murder, very soon he comes to think little of robbing; and from robbing he comes next to drinking and Sabbath-breaking, and from that to incivility and procrastination. Once begin upon this downward path, you never know where you are to stop. Many a man has dated his ruin from some murder or other that perhaps he thought little of at the time.
Lord Bacon drops below the proper level of his genius in affirming that "none deny there is a God, but those for whom it maketh that there were no God."

The Henkyl Hunters were no "chuffs", no conundrums, with the strange riddle of incivility up a sleeve. "'Invite them to the picnic and don't forget the cocoa!" Tanpa laughed. "Just like them! We did promise to lay in a fresh supply of sundries, as we pass through the town to-night if there's still a store left open. And that reminds me, girlies, that it's getting late.
All this was done with an air of importance sufficiently ludicrous, when contrasted with the object; but we met with no incivility, and had nothing to complain of but a little additional fatigue, and the delay of our dinner. We stopped to change horses at Bernay, and I soon perceived our landlady was a very ardent patriot.
