The whole thing simple, full of modesty: Nine rooms - no, but ten! A roof garden where the oaks stand on it, Radio, central heating, vacuum, a servant, well drawn and dumb, a sweet woman full of race and verve - (and one for the weekend, to the reserve) - a library and around it Loneliness and bumblebee. In the stable: Two ponies, four thoroughbred stallions, Eight cars, motorcycle - everything you steer Of course, that would be laughed! And in between you go on big game hunting. Yes, and I completely forgot that: Great kitchen - first food - old wines from beautiful cup - and always you stay as thin as an eel. And money. And jewelry a real helping. And another million and another million. And travel. And happy life. And great kids. And eternal health. Yes, you want that! But, how is that here below: sometimes it seems like it is granted only gradually, earthly happiness. There is always something missing you. If you have money, then you do not have Kate; do you have the wife, then you are missing monetas - if you have the geisha, then the fan bothers you: Soon we will miss the wine, soon we will miss the cup. Something is always. Console yourself. Every luck has a little trick. We want so much: Having. Being. And applying. That one has everything: that is rare.
