George Washington's Rules

I have always loved George Washington's Rules for Civility and Decent Behavior, and I have decided to try to post weekly the "Rule for the Week". I will just go through the rules, post them, and translate them into modern language.

The first rule is:

1st Every Action done in Company, ought to be with Some Sign of Respect, to those that are Present.

Which means:

1st Everything you do in a group should be done in a way that shows respect to all those you are with.
