"Makes the Whole World Kin" is a short story written by O. Henry (a pen name for William Sydney Porter), allegedly at Pete's Tavern[1] on Irving Place in New York City.

He carried a .38-calibre revolver in his pocket, and he chewed peppermint gum thoughtfully.Once he finds a respectable house, the thief climbs inside through an open window.

They proceed to exchange words of comfort about the haunting pain, and the young thief asks for tips to dull the swellings.

Gaidai specifically chose actors with a more comedic background to satirize the pain that the thief and the old man have in common.

Sultanov chose actors with a dramatic, method acting approach to display the truthful effect of rheumatic pain.

However, many critics argue that this conformity is one of "common failing" and uneasy love of novelty which all men share.Though this has become a famous speech of Ulysses and often quoted, it is a curious fact, and one on the whole redounding to the credit of humanity, that the line is never quoted in the sense in which Ulysses uses it:[10] He is speaking of the readiness of mankind to forget past benefits, and to prize the glitter of a specious present rather than the true gold of that which has gone by.

Curiously enough, the line is always quoted as exemplifying the sympathy that, once awakened, makes men feel their close relationship to each other.

This unconscious misinterpretation, or rather misapplication, of the great poet's words shows us how innate the conviction is of the fact of our universal brotherhood.
