Never Joke About Appearances Or Taste


A lively wit and a humorous disposition are essential for a good courtier, and there are times when vulgarity is appropriate and engaging.

But avoid any kind of joke about appearance or taste, two highly sensitive areas, especially with those above you.

Do not even try it when you are away from them.

You will dig your own grave.
