User Manual for Being Human
The best things in life aren’t things
Never pass on an opportunity to keep your mouth closed
If you can’t spot the sucker at a poker table, you’re probably it
If everyone agrees with you, it’s likely that you’re wrong
It’s better to build your own library than to be given one
You don’t ask, you don’t get
If you see a gun in a movie, it’s going to get used
Be prepared to lose once in awhile
If you have to borrow something more than twice, you need one of your own
Always give a serious answer when a child asks “why?”
Forgive your enemies. You’ll feel good and it annoys them
Try not to confuse vested interests with moral truisms
Choose being wrong over being ridiculous
If you want to be interesting, be interested
Share the credit
Do something every day that you don’t want to do
Bring something to a bar besides your elbows
If there’s no wind, paddle
Don’t mistake caffeine for enthusiasm
Never watch the eleven o’clock news
Kindness is everything. Say thank-you
