  1. A quotation from Bertrand Russell

    I think the gist of the matter is that a saint can live without politeness, and indeed that politeness is incompatible with a saintly character. But the man who is always to be sincere must be free from spite and envy and malice and pettiness. Most of us have a dose of these vices in our composition and therefore have to excerise tact to avoid giving offence. We cannot all be saints, and if saintliness is impossible, we may at least try not to be too disagreeable.

    Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
    Essay (1933-02-01) “On Tact,” New York American

  5. Being honest and honest in critiquing others may seem like a good idea, but without tact, it will simply come across as rude, ignorant, and unnecessary. Don't put others in a defensive mode by being too blunt. Use some tact. #tact #blunt #honest #critique #opinion

  8. A quotation from Joseph Addison

    Though a man has all other perfections, and wants discretion, he will be of no great consequence in the world; but if he has this single talent in perfection, and but a common share of others, he may do what he pleases in his station of life.

    Joseph Addison (1672-1719) English essayist, poet, statesman
    Essay (1711-11-17), The Spectator, No. 225

  10. A quotation from Joseph Addison

    My friend Sir Roger heard them both upon a round trot; and after having paused some time, told them with an air of a man who would not give his judgment rashly, that “much might be said on both sides.”

    Joseph Addison (1672-1719) English essayist, poet, statesman
    Essay (1711-07-20), The Spectator, No. 122

  18. According to an excellent explanation from #TACT the wave of mystery pneumonias follows in time and space any wave of #pirola aka the #BA286 family.
    In particular the most infectious variant to date, #JN1 "with extreme immune evasion and suppression". In other words, this is the variant most likely to induce #immunodeficiency.
    Anything that can cause "secondary" pneumonia is on the list, particularly in children and the elderly whose immune systems are already weakened.
    ⚠️ At the end of the article, there is a warning that adults will be the next to be affected, in the coming weeks.

  29. A quotation from Wilder, Laura Ingalls:

    «««««
    Tact does for life just what lubricating oil does for machinery. It makes the wheels run smoothly, and without it there is a great deal of friction and the possibility of a breakdown.

  34. A quotation from Randall, J. G.:

    «««««
    Tact is not one thing only. It is a number of qualities working together: insight into the nature of men, sympathy, self control, a knack of inducing self control in others, avoidance of human blundering, readiness to give the immediate situation an understanding mind and a second thought. Tact is not only kindness, but kin…
