Public Domain Poetry And Stories - The Rule Of Life. by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
If thou wouldst live unruffled by care,
Let not the past torment thee e'er;
As little as possible be thou annoy'd,
And let the present be ever enjoy'd;
Ne'er let thy breast with hate be supplied,
And to God the future confide.
