Excerpt from The Works of Heinrich Heine, Vol. 3 But the Wisdom of daily life enjoins politeness, and forbids a vexed silence or a vexatious reply, even when some chuckle-headed Commercial Councillor or barren brained cheesemonger makes a set at us, beginning a conversation common to all Europe with the words, Fine weather today. No one knows but that we may meet that same Philistine again, when he may wreak bitter vengeance on us for not politely replying, It is very fine weather. Nay, it may even happen, dear reader, that thou mayest, some fine day, come to sit by the Philistine aforesaid in the inn at Cassel, and at the table d'ho'te, even by his left side, when he is exactly the very man who has the dish with a jolly brown carp in it.
