If a fool is about, p'raps it's you! </div><div style="margin:10px 0">Beware of the critic who tells you the handicap's absolute rot, <br>For this is chucked in, and that's hopeless, and somebody ought to be shot. <br>How is it he can't make a fortune himself when he knows such a lot? </div><div style="margin:10px 0">From tipsters, and jockeys, and trials, and gallops, the glory has gone, <br>For this is the wisdom of Hafiz that sages have pondered upon, <br>"The very best tip in the world is to see the commission go on!"</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Andrew+Barton+Paterson">Andrew Barton Paterson</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=344197" data-title="Wisdom of Hafiz: the Philosopher Takes to Racing de Andrew Barton Paterson" data-description="My son, if you go to the races to battle with Ikey and Mo, Remember, it's seldom the pigeon can pick out the eye of the crow; Remember, they live by the business; remember, my son, and go slow.
