[Judith Martin] is an extremely useful philosopher, and I consult her frequently, in order to behave better., In the almost twenty years I've owned it, Miss Manners' Guide to Excruciatingly Correct Behavior--an 800-plus page brick of good sense--has rarely rested on the shelf....When I read Martin, I feel understood. And not understood merely as I am (impatient, exhausted, distracted by that one last text I need to send), but understood as I would like to be.
