NEGRO PHILOSOPHY.
•— — — — ; o ; De watennillion dat is greenest m de rind may hab de reddest heart. De biggest shoutaJi ain't allers de man what sees de contribushun plattah. When de 'possum thinks he's slyest lie's closest to de fryin' pan. Cole pertajters from yo' own patch is bettah dan chicken from yo 1 neighbor's coop. Ef yo' don't pull up de weeds yo J won't dig up a crap. De longah de face de longah de mis'ry. De higliah de white collali de blackah de oollahed pusson looks. De man what's alleprs gibin? away ginerally has to go a-borrowin' to de man what keeps what he gits.
