No one will admire you for clever speech — you just don't have that gift. Fine. But there are many other good qualities you can't blame on lack of natural ability. Show the ones that depend entirely on you: honesty, seriousness, hard work, ignoring pleasures. Don't complain. Be happy with little. Be kind. Be generous. Avoid excess and empty talk. Be great-hearted.
No man can admire thee for thy sharp acute language, such is thy natural disability that way. Be it so: yet there be many other good things, for the want of which thou canst not plead the want or natural ability. Let them be seen in thee, which depend wholly from thee; sincerity, gravity, laboriousness, contempt of pleasures; be not querulous, be Content with little, be kind, be free; avoid all superfluity, all vain prattling; be magnanimous.
