I have this Morrissey-song in my head that says "To give and to Get" or something similar and I can't find it anywhere. Maybe he sings something else but I'm quite sure it should be in Ringleader of the Tormentors but it is not.
To get something you have to give. Not pretend to give but actually sacrifice small pieces of yourself, your pride (I do prefer "orgoglio" in italian that sounds less gay as word) your experience, your patience. The only way to move ahead with people.
