How to use courtesy in a sentence?

  1. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe:

    There is a courtesy of the heart; it is allied to love. From its springs the purest courtesy in the outward behavior.

  2. Athena Athena:

    A tree is known by its fruit. A man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost, he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.

  3. Jake Basden:

    Out of courtesy, I personally texted Taylor at 9:06 p.m, June 29 to inform her prior to the story breaking on the morning of June 30 so she could hear it directly from me, i truly doubt that she' woke up to the news when everyone else did.

  4. Stacey Abrams:

    The stiffest of stiff arms came courtesy of Stacey Abrams, who refused to appear at Biden's voting rights speech in Atlanta last month. That's her big issue, by the way, and we never did find out what Abrams's scheduling conflict was, the truth is, Biden is human kryptonite for anyone hoping to win politically. Even the dullest of Democrat knives in the drawer know that Biden is clueless on stopping the biggest issue facing us now, which is inflation.

  5. Mathew Rosengart:

    Today was about the issue concerning security, the only thing I'm going to add to what I said last week in court and outside is: First, I once again want to thank Britney Spears for her courage and for her strength. I want to thank Judge Penny for her courtesy and welcoming my firm and I into this case, and I also want to thank Britney Spears' fans and supporters. The outreach and support for my firm, myself and most importantly Britney has truly been overwhelming – coast to coast and literally throughout the world.
