Answer:he said just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.
Explanation: ‘Whenever you feel like criticizing anyone,’ he told me, ‘just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.’”
—Nick Carraway, The Great Gatsby
F is for F. Scott Fitzgerald, author of Gatsby and master of human insight wrapped in poetry. His novel begins here, his narrator Nick Carraway, grappling with his father’s caution of criticism—
“All the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.”
In short, people judge, and Nick tries to refrain because his father said so. I think about Nick’s words and my life. I remember how often my mother would stop herself mid-criticism and say, “I’m not going to say that. It wasn’t very nice.” Then Philippians 4:8 comes to mind about thinking on excellent, praiseworthy things.
Speaking of excellence and praise, what about this one for its sheer lyricism? “It was dawn now on Long Island and we went about opening the rest of the windows downstairs, filling the house with grey turning, gold turning light. The shadow of a tree fell abruptly across the dew and ghostly birds began to sing among the blue leaves. There was a slow pleasant movement in the air, scarcely a wind, promising a cool lovely day.”

In “Lather and Nothing Else,” the barber faces the challenge of shaving the enemy, a cruel captain.
At first, he reflects on all the terrible things the captain has done. Then, he explains his internal conflict over whether to kill the captain when he has a chance.
However, he does not believe in murder.
In addition, he takes great pride in his work.
In the end, he controls his emotions and lets the captain live.
Certainly, overcoming his own emotions is his greatest challenge.
"Lather and Nothing Else" is a story by Hernando Tellez.
The story is about a revolutionary barber who has a customer called captain Torres. Captain Torres killed the barber's fellow revolutionaries in trying to suppress revolutionaries.
When captain Torres went to have a shave from the barber, the barber had an internal conflict of whether to revenge by killing the captain or not for all the terrible things the captain has done. But in the end, the barber controlled his emotions and let the captain live.
