\nDes bons mots<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nIf you could have it all would you leave it where it is?
\nThe path of righteousness leads to the corridor of uncertainty.
\nAbsence makes the heart look elsewhere.
\nA problem shared is a problem still.
\nDo things by the book or they\u2019ll throw it at you.
\nCan you get it in the neck while taking it on the chin,
\nhave an ear to the ground when being walked all over?
\nWhen all’s said and done there’ll be nothing left to do or say.
\nAt the end of the day, it\u2019s night.<\/p>\n
