Arthur Guiterman (Артур Гитерман)


The Chip on the Shoulder


LEARN this now before you are older:
Don’t go through life with a chip on your shoulder,
Always aggrieved and ever offended,
Fancying wrongs that are not intended.
Let not a sense of humor desert you,
Take it that nobody means to hurt you,
Find no insult in idle chatter,
Pass it over; it doesn’t matter.
Look for the best in everybody,
Value the wool, forget the shoddy;
Get in the habit of liking people.
Love is the spire on every steeple.

  3. Sex
  4. Strictly Germ-proof
  5. Pithecanthropus Erectus
