A clear and sound conscience
is the treasure I desire;
I ask for nothing and expect nothing
for tomorrow.
I neither pursue glory,
nor does foolish ambition trouble me;
And upon being born each morning,
I ask only of God
a clean house to shelter me,
fresh bread to eat,
a book to read,
and a Christ to pray to;
for he who strives and toils
finds nothing that fulfills him,
and he who needs the least
has more than he who has the most.
José María Pemán
