Samuel Smiles: An appointment is a contract, express or implied, and he who does not keep it…

An appointment is a contract, express or implied, and he who does not keep it breaks faith, as well as dishonestly uses other people's time, and thus inevitably loses character.

In today’s wordsAn appointment is a promise, stated or implied, and whoever doesn't keep it breaks faith, wastes other people's time, and inevitably loses character.
