Wise, Rich And Mighty Poem by gary polonsky

Wise, Rich And Mighty

Rating: ★5.0


Who are wise? They who learn from everyone.
Who are rich? They who rejoice in their portion.
Who are mighty? They who subdue their passions.
I did not say this. Not smart enough.‎
Nor Aristotle although he was.
Spaketh Ben Zoma, two millenia whence.
