Hair-splitting pettifoggery
I used to share your love of hair-splitting pettifoggery; but now is displeases me.
Control yourself
A man should sooner insult his friend than a stranger.
Pluck me out
If I offend Thee, pluck me out, oh Lord.

"Metropolitan Life" ← !
Her prevailing mode is High Sardonic Low Brow-Beating.
But this quote is pure love:
"I think humor is warmer, and wit is colder. Wit is judgment, whereas humor invites some sort of response."
(Not sure that quote is from Metropolitan Life. Mostly I remember the High Sardonic Low Brow-Beating material.)
