Delicacy of Feeling.

The best parts of human qualities are the tenderness and delicacy of feeling in little matters, the desire to soothe and please others, the minutiae of the social virtues. Some ridicule these feminine attributes, which are left out of many men's natures; but I have known the brave, the intellectual, the eloquent to possess these gentle qualities; the braggart, the weak, never! Benevolence and feeling ennoble the most trifling actions.
