I have a different idea of elegance. I don't dress like a fop, it's true, but my moral grooming is impeccable. Furthermore, I never appear in public with a soiled conscience, a tarnished honor, threadbare scruples, or an insult that I haven't washed away. Furthermore, I'm always immaculately clean, adorned with independence and frankness. Furthermore, I may not cut a stylish figure, but I hold my soul erect. Furthermore, I wear my deeds as ribbons, my wit is sharper then the finest mustache, and when I walk among men I make truths ring like spurs.
