Rules for Living
Can I follow all these rules?
Like Abe Lincoln, I can follow all the rules some of the time, some of the rules all the time, but never all the rules all the time. Sometimes only one a day.
Do not fight
Do not be greedy
Do not seek
Do not be selfish
Do not pursue personal advantage
Do not lie
