A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson

A child should always say what’s true
   And speak when he is spoken to,
And behave mannerly at table;
   At least as far as he is able.

Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet
Poem (1885), “Whole Duty of Children,” A Child’s Garden of Verses
