How to make it appear that you are running: 10 bad advice

The main business of your life

Anyone can become a trifle.

It is only necessary to believe firmly,

What is more important is not the case.

And then does not hurt

You neither cold nor hot,

Choking with delight,

Engage in nonsense.

Grigory Oster
