*A quote

"Good manners will open doors that the best education cannot."
Clarence Thomas

What does this quote mean to me?
Well, I'm not exactly a quote-y kind of person........but, oh well.

I guess it means that no matter how smart you are, if you are rude to people, they won't listen to you or be nice to you.

So if you're all smarty-pants, but you're completely stuck up and rude and proud, people won't like you.

Being polite can warm peoples hearts, and can make people your friends. So.......erm.......you know. Have good manners.:)
