The verses below reportedly were engraved on the wall of Mother Teresa's home for children in Calcutta, and are widely attributed to her. However, according to The New York Times, the verses actually were written by 19-year-old Kent Keith in a motivation booklet for high school counselors published while he was a student at Harvard in 1968. In 2002 Dr. Keith was communications director at the Honolulu YMCA
Anyway
People are often unreasonable, illogical,
and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, People may accuse you
of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some
false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
당신의 성공으로 그릇된 친구도 얻을 것이고 진정한 적수도 얻을 것이지만 어쨌든 성공하십시오.
If you are honest and frank,
people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
당신의 정직함과 솔직함을 이용하여 사람들이 당신을 속인다 할지라도 어쨌거나 정직하고 솔직하십시오.
What you spend years building, someone
could destroy overnight.
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness,
they may be jealous;

The good you do today,
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
당신이 오늘 베푼 선함을 사람들이 내일 잊는다 할지라도

and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
당신이 가진 최선을 이 세상에 내어 주어도 세상은 여전히 부족할 뿐이라 할지라도 어쨌거나 당신의 최선을 세상에 내어주십시오.

그대여,
결국 마지막에 따져보면 문제는 당신과 하나님 사이이니
어쨌거나 당신과 그들 사이는 문제가 아님을 기억해 두십시오.
