Who speaks of patience
But does not practice it
Will know nothing but
The greatest frustration
Who speaks of kindness
But does not practice it
Will know nothing but
The greatest cruelty
Who speaks of discipline
But does not practice it
Will know nothing but
The greatest confusion
Who speaks of peace
But does not practice it
Will know nothing but
The greatest discontent
Who speaks
But does not
Practice
Knows nothing
