...on Second Thought!

Snippets, in 3 lines ...

"Hell is other folks!"

French philosopher, Sartre

said, in a tantrum.

.  .  .

"Life would be simpler

If you'd just do as I say,

and do as I do!

.  .  .

... but on second thought,

if all of you thought my way,

 I'd have zip to say!"

______

In traditional Senryu/Haiku format

John Paul Sartre wrote, "Hell is other people," 

...and the rest I just kinda made up :)
