Inventory
by Dorothy ParkerFour be the things I am wiser to know:
Idleness, sorrow, a friend, and a foe.Four be the things I'd been better without:
Love, curiosity, freckles, and doubt.Three be the things I shall never attain:
Envy, content, and sufficient champagne.Three be the things I shall have till I die:
Laughter and hope and a sock in the eye.
