If you treat with courtesy your equal, who is privileged to resent an impertinence, how much more cautious should you be to your dependents, from whom you demand a respectful demeanor.
Robert Chambers
In many people it is already an impertinence to say 'I'.
Theodor Adorno
It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.
Mark Twain
May I make a suggestion, hoping it is not an impertinence? Write it down: write down what you feel. It is sometimes a wonderful help in misery.
Robertson Davies
When a thought takes one's breath away, a grammar lesson seems an impertinence.
Thomas W. Higginson
