A boy doesn't have to go to war to be a hero; he can say he doesn't like pie when he sees there isn't enough to go around. A young man is a theory, an old man is a fact. Abuse a man unjustly, and you will make friends for him. Express a mean opinion of yourself occasionally; it will show your friends that you know how to tell the truth. For every quarrel a man and wife have before others, they have a hundred when alone. It may be a cold, clammy thing to say, but those that treat friendship the same as any other selfishness seem to get the most out of it. Many a man is saved from being a thief by finding everything locked up. No one can help you in holding a good job except Old Man You.The average man's judgment is so poor, he runs a risk every time he uses it. The worst feeling in the world is the homesickness that comes over a man occasionally when he is at home. There is nothing so well known as that we should not expect something for nothing -- but we all do, and call it Hope. When a friend is in trouble, don't annoy him by asking if there is any thing you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it. When a man has no reason to trust himself, he trusts in luck. |
