When decorum is repression, the only dignity free men have is to speak out.
Abbie Hoffman
Oftentimes, if you're talking to a seasoned interviewer who asks you a question, they may do a follow-up if they didn't quite get it. It's rare that they'll do a third or fourth or fifth or sixth follow-up, because there's an implicit, agreed-upon decorum that they move on. Kids don't necessarily move on if they don't get it.

Elizabeth Flock
The middle of 'America's Women' is about the Civil War, and how women, black and white, confronted slavery and abolition. As in every other period of crisis, the rules of sexual decorum were suspended due to emergency.

Georg C. Lichtenberg
I believe in choosing your words very carefully. It's funny: I'll get comments like, 'Oh I love you. You don't care; you have no filter.' On the contrary, I absolutely have a filter, because I understand decorum, and my objective is not to upset people.

I have no limits, no filter, no class, no poise. No decorum. Just fun.
Kathy Griffin
There's a difference between being a drag queen on TV where the masses can tune in and watch, and then at a nightclub where you have to be a certain age to get in. There's a different decorum. We're all trying to push boundaries, but also trying to stay in our lane.
Manila Luzon
Presidents should do whatever possible and practical to encourage an environment of cooperation and bipartisanship. And they should maintain a certain level of decorum, diplomacy and decency. But, at the end of the day, presidents get elected to enact change.
Mark McKinnon
Observe decorum, and it will open a path to morality.
Mason Cooley
This country deserves a statesman who can represent the people with proper decorum, respect, and knowledge of what's happening in the world, and I don't believe that Donald Trump represents any of that.
Michael Kelly
It is important that the decorum and dignity of the House is upheld at all times. The image of Parliament in the public mind should be one where proceedings, debates and discussions take place with a view to resolve issues through a constructive and co-operative approach.
Pratibha Patil
Let them cant about decorum, Who have characters to lose!
Robert Burns
At the point when continuity was interrupted by the first nuclear explosion, it would have been too easy to recover the formal sediment which linked us with an age of poetic decorum, of a preoccupation with poetic sounds.
Salvatore Quasimodo
I don't want to worry about maintaining an air of decorum that's not natural to me.
Taron Egerton
Necessity dispenseth with decorum.
Thomas Carlyle
