To Thine Own Self Be True

If everyone practiced this idealogy the world would be a better place!

And these few precepts in thy memory
See thou character. Give thy thoughts no tounge,
Nor any unproportioned thought his act.,
Be thou familiar, but by no means vulgar:
The friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,
Grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel;
But do not dull thy palm with entertainment
Of each new-hatched, unfledged courage. Beware
Of entrance to a quarrel; but, being in,
Bear 't that the opposed may beware of thee.
Giuve every man thine eear, but few thy voice;
Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgement.
Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy,]
But not expressed in fancy; rich, not gaudy:
For the apparel oft proclaims the man;
And they in France of the best rank and station
Are most select and generous in that.
Neither a borrower, nor a lender be;
]For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This above all, -to thine own self be true;
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou canst not then be false to any man.
Farewll; my blessing season this in thee!
--Hamlett Act 1 Scene 3
