Yuppie Wisdom

--The good things in life are those that feel like self-indulgence. --Don't give yourself to anything or anybody: You may not get yourself back. --Self-sacrifice is another word for manipulation. --If you don't have something you want it's because you haven't wanted it enough. --Fucking up is an educational opportunity. --Once you've learned how to own your own problems you've learned how to get everyone else's off your back. --Only if you love yourself will you have the confidence to love anyone else. --"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Sure. You wouldn't want any condescending bullshit, either. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use.
