APOLOGIES
[ Also see Alibis Bashfulness Blustering Deference Excuses Humility Meekness Modesty Regret Remorse Repentance ]

Apologies only account for the evil which they cannot alter.
      - Benjamin Disraeli, 1st Earl of Beaconsfield

No sensible person ever made an apology.
      - Ralph Waldo Emerson

A very desperate habit; one that is rarely cured. Apology is only egotism wrong side out. Nine times out of ten, the first thing a man's companion knows of his short-comings is from his apology.
      - Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

Apology is only egotism wrong side out.
      - Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.

There are occasions on which all apology is rudeness.
      - Samuel Johnson (a/k/a Dr. Johnson) ("The Great Cham of Literature")
