Is Josh Groban a good Sweeney Todd?
Sep 30– From “Manners” by Ralph Waldo Emerson (1844)
Summary: Gentlemen are not gentle!
Commentary: After complaining about the lack of pairings last night, I thought this might be a little etiquette guide that would kind of go with the Confucius. It's more of an essay on class philosophy. Gentleman=upper/ruling class=power. Not uninteresting, just unexpected.
"to talk of happiness among people who live in sepulchres, among the corpses and rags of an ancient nation which they know nothing of." There's the next T5FSOB RPG sourcebook epigraph.
I think this is also the origin of, "how the other half lives"
