The Bible even talks about Manners.  This is from Proverbs 15:1-10

.1 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. 
.
2 The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness. 

.3 The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. 
.
4 A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit. 

.5 A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent.

 6 In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. 

 7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so. 

.8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight. 

 9 The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness. 

 10  Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die.
