"For more than forty years, Judith Martin has inspired the world with advice on etiquette excellence, proper behavior, and codes of conduct through her critically acclaimed newspaper column, "Miss Manners.

It is crucial to be vigilant and socially aware enough that you can read people's cues to know when to pull back and contain yourself."
