If I Was A Nightingale I Would

If You See Anybody Wail And Complain, Call Him A Slave, Though He Be Clad In Purple.

No Matter Where You Find Yourself, Comport Yourself As If You Were A Distinguished Person.

If Thy Brother Wrongs Thee, Remember Not So Much His Wrong-doing, But More Than Ever That He Is Thy Brother.

He Is Free Who Lives As He Wishes To Live; Who Is Neither Subject To Compulsion Nor To Hindrance, Nor To Force; Whose Movements To Action Are Not Impeded, Whose Desires Attain Their Purpose, And Who Does Not Fall Into That Which He Would Avoid.

Some Of Their Faults Men Readily Admit, But Others Not So Readily.
