Be friendly and helpful. If you would have friends, be a friend.
Be cordial; speak and act as if everything you do is a genuine pleasure.
Be genuinely interested in people. You can like almost anybody if you try.
Be generous with praise, cautious with criticism.
~ "The Ten Commandments of Human Relations" by Beatrice Fox Auerbach.
