GALLANTRY [ Also see Compliments Coquette Court Courtiers Courtship Deference Devotion Flattery Kisses Vows ] Gallantry to women (the sure road to their favor) is nothing but the appearance, of extreme devotion to all their wants and wishes, a delight in their satisfaction, and a confidence in yourself as being able to contribute towards it. The slightest indifference with regard to them, or distrust of yourself is equally fatal.       - William Hazlitt (1) Love is the smallest part of gallantry.       - Francois Duc de la Rochefoucauld The gallantry of the mind consists in agreeable flattery.       - Francois Duc de la Rochefoucauld Gallantry thrives most in the atmosphere of the court.       - Madame Suzanne Curchod Necker A gallant man is above ill words.       - John Selden Last Revised: 2008 April 9 Copyright © 1999-2008 John C.
