Civility
|
It's something of a paradox. Civility gives incivility its power. Without the restraints imposed by civility, the things that would be shocking become inert and harmless. So in a sense civility creates incivility. I'm sure there's a Taoist lesson in there somewhere, but I'm not up to it tonight. When you allow words to hurt you, then people will hurt you with words.
