I like the man who stands right up <br />And takes his share of praise or blame, <br />And then, unchanged by loss or gain, <br />Treats all his neighbors just the same! <br /> <br />The man, who, if he liked you once, <br />Still likes you, though he's gained success; <br />Who plays a man's part all the time, <br />And blames no friend for his distress.<br /><br />Edgar Albert Guest<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-man-i-like/
