ADDRESS
Bovee, Christian Nestell
Address makes opportunities; the want of it gives them.
Colton, Caleb C.
A man who knows the world will not only make the most of everything he does know, but of many things he does not know; and will gain more credit by his adroit mode of hiding his ignorance, than the pedant by his awkward attempt to exhibit his erudition.
Cowper, William
The tear that is wiped with a little address may be followed, perhaps, by a smile.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Give a boy address and accomplishments and you give him the mastery of palaces and fortunes where he goes. He has not the trouble of earning to own them: they solicit him to enter and possess.
Hugo, Victor
Brahma once asked of Force, "Who is stronger than thou?" She replied, "Address."
Irving, Washington
There is a certain artificial polish and address acquired by mingling in the beau monde, which, in the commerce of the world, supplies the place of natural suavity and good humor; but it is too often purchased at the expense of all original and sterling traits of character.
