Courtesy
Of Courtesy, it is much less
Than Courage of Heart or Holiness,
Yet in my Walks it seems to me
That the Grace of God is in Courtesy.
On Monks I did in Storrington fall,
They took me straight into their Hall;
I saw Three Pictures on a wall,
And Courtesy was in them all.
The first the Annunciation;
The second the Visitation;
The third the Consolation,
Of God that was Our Lady's Son.
The first was of St. Gabriel;
On Wings a-flame from Heaven he fell;
And as he went upon one knee
He shone with Heavenly Courtesy.
Our Lady out of Nazareth rode -
It was Her month of heavy load;
Yet was her face both great and kind,
For Courtesy was in Her Mind.
The third it was our Little Lord,
Whom all the Kings in arms adored;
He was so small you could not see
His large intent of Courtesy.
Our Lord, that was Our Lady's Son,
Go bless you, People, one by one;
My Rhyme is written, my work is done.

The path of pleasure
To punish pleases us
And to pardon does as well.
To revenge pleases us
And to pity does as well.
To pride pleases us
And to be humble does as well.
If getting pleased is the goal
The wise will chose the second.

Courtesy
I remember years ago
when courtesy was quite normal
amongst most people.
Giving up your seat on a bus
to someone elderly or a mum to be.
Opening the door for a woman
or someone struggling with something.
Being polite to everyone, you met.
Courtesy and respect
then used to hold each other’s hand,
but not anymore, I am afraid.
They have almost vanished
through the passing of time.
Some youngsters swear at you
instead of saying thank you
when you offer to help them out a bit.
The helping hands are hardly ever there
when you need one occasionally.
Instead, they just ignore you
and pass on their way.
I hope someone soon will think
of having a courtesy day.
A day when the whole world
can back on track
with giving a little courtesy every day.

All legislation, all government, all society is founded upon the principle of mutual concession, politeness, comity, courtesy; upon these everything is based...Let him who elevates himself above humanity, above its weaknesses, its infirmities, its wants, its necessities, say, if he pleases, I will never compromise; but let no one who is not above the frailties of our common nature disdain compromises.

And, in the past, it has been all too easy for legislators to load costs onto business in order to meet broader social goals. And costs for business means costs for consumers.

Loose Talk Costs Lives
(b gibb)
Loose talk costs lives
People like to play
Were basically the same
We never lie
Loose talk costs lives
Dont look at me as if you dont remember me at all
There was laughter, there was pain
But I wont make the same mistakes I made
You are too beautiful to me
I hide my tears inside the rain
Am I the soul you cast your spell upon
I had control and now its gone
Or are you someone who controls my heart and mind
And I will never say a word
And I will never say goodbye
Loose talk costs lives
People like to play
Were basically the same
We never lie
Loose talk costs lives
I can see that someone hung a sign around your heart
And it reads do not return
And there is so much trouble I could cause
Someone as beautiful as you
You can feel my candle burn
And I still recall some starry night
We had it all, we held on tight
I promised I would come to you and catch you if you fall
And they will never know about us
For just one moment you were mine
Loose talk costs lives
People like to play
Were basically the same
We never lie
Loose talk costs lives
For just one moment, just one moment, you were mine
Loose talk costs lives
(our moment held in time)
People like to play
Were basically the same
We never lie
Loose talk costs lives
Loose talk costs lives
People like to play
Were basically the same
We never lie
Loose talk costs lives

There is a courtesy of the heart it is allied to love. From it springs the purest courtesy in the outward behavior.

Do I Move You
Nina simone
Do I move you, are you willin
Do I groove you, is it thrillin
Do I soothe you, tell the truth now
Do I move you, are you loose now
The answer better be (yes, yes)
That pleases me
Are you ready for this action
Does it give you satisfaction
Are you hip to what Im sayin
If you are then lets start swayin
The answer better be (yes, yes)
That pleases me
When I touch you do you quiver
Form your head down to your liver
It you like it let me know it
Dont be psychic or youll blow it
The answer better be (yes, yes)
That pleases me

Ride Or Die
Crazy over you
I don't know what to do
I don't understand why I'm crazy
Over you, I don't know what to do
I do
I would give up everything just to feel and be with you (if I had to)
I would pawn the ring you gave to me just to feed you (if I had to)
I would give my very last breath just to help save you (if I had to)
I would tell a lie just because I know you are the truth
[Chorus:]
I'd ryde for you
'Cause you're the truth
I'd die for you
Ooh, 'cause I'm a fool in love with you
And I'll do anything that pleases you
Only you
If I had to
I would throw away my only wish just to prove to you (if I had to)
I would die all alone if living meant without you (if I had to)
I would go through all the pain again just to find you (if I had to)
I'd surrender all my love just because I love you
I don't understand why I'm crazy
over you, I don't know what to do
I don't understand why I'm crazy
over you, I don't know what to do
I'd ryde for you
'Cause you're the truth
I'd die for you
Ooh, 'cause I'm a fool in love with you
And I'll do anything that pleases you
I'd ryde for you
'Cause you're the truth
I'd die for you
Ooh, 'cause I'm a fool in love with you
And I'll do anything that pleases you
I wanna run to you
Breathe as one with you
Absent in time without you
Existing only for you
Every dream is of you
Only turn to you
My baby, my love
Only turn to you, woo, woo
I'd ryde for you
'Cause you're the truth
I'd die for you
Ooh, 'cause I'm a fool in love with you
And I'll do anything that pleases you
I'm gonna run for you
I'd ryde for you
'Cause you're the truth
I'd die for you
Ooh, 'cause I'm a fool in love with you
And I'll do anything that pleases you

It costs something to be a Christian, but it costs more to be a sinner.
I'd like to say from the beginning that the 12 years I've been coming here, I've met unfailing courtesy and cooperation, courtesy from your people and cooperation from the Ministry of Information.

That doesn't mean you have to have the lowest costs in the industry to succeed. But you need to make sure the activities and product attributes that increase your costs above the other guy bring in at least that much more in revenue, and hopefully more.

You Wrote The Book On Love
When I first met you my life turn a page
Chapter one was our true love we speak
You caught me with your kiss
Speaks about the mess I hate
You knew where you came from
and you see
What pleases you and what pleases me
Girl when you touch me
I began to understand
Refrain
You
