I got here by closely observing these five basic rules for self-expression: 1. Love yourself above all . others. 2. Take all you can and give as little as you can. 3. Eat. drink, and be merry. 4. Disregard laws and signs, created for timid and feeble folk. 5. Forget God and never read the Bible. These were my commandments and I followed them rigidly. You can have the cell next to me, or a cell of your very own in some other penitentiary (if you should fail to acquire quiet, secluded grave), by following these simple commandments. Time will take care of the fulfillment. You need not follow these rules perfectly, as no one is perfect Just make a practice of following your natural inclinations. Soon no deed will be too difficult. If you are stronger than God, more cunning than all men, these commandments are for you. Be lieve me, no matter what they say about crowded prisons, there is always room for another "smart guy."
