Evil, Response to
A certain man purchased a paper at a newspaper stand. He greeted the newsman very courteously, but in return received gruff and discourteous p 130 service. Accepting the newspaper, which was rudely shoved in his face, the customer politely smiled and wished the newsman a nice weekend. A friend observed all of this and asked, “Does he always treat you so rudely?”
“Yes, unfortunately he does.”
“And are you always so polite and friendly to him?”
“Yes, I am.”
“Why are you so nice to him when he is so rude to you?”
“Because I don’t want him to decide how I am going to act.”431
