When the conduct of men is designed to be
influenced, persuasion, kind unassuming persuasion,
should ever be adopted.
It is an old and true maxim
that 'a drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall.'
So with men.
If you would win a man to your cause,
first convince him that you are his sincere friend.
Therein is a drop of honey that catches his heart,
which, say what he will, is the great highroad to his reason,
and which, once gained, you will find but little trouble in convincing him of
the justice of your cause,
if indeed that cause is really a good one.
