Monkey see, monkey do

Mulla Nasrudin went to a mosque and sat down. His shirt was rather short and the man behind him pulled it lower, thinking it looked unseemly. Nasrudin immediately pulled the shirt of the man in front of him.

What are you doing? asked the man in front.

Don't ask me. Ask the man behind - he started it, said Nasrudin.

Do not imitate anyone, do not follow anyone, otherwise you will be just a pseudo existence - and that is worse than suicide. BE YOURSELF - and only then can you be responsible and authentic and real. But ordinarily everyone is just secondhand and borrowed, and that makes everything ugly.
