Girl Scout Law:
I will do my best to be: honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.
The new one. As Hill points out, it has been changed over the years. I learned the 1972 one, too.
Which is better: Girl Scout Law or Ape Law? Do Girl Scouts have a Lawgiver?

I should be extremely happy I don't know who is he, right?
(And just today I ran into the understanding that yes, my country is not the same as others. And other people don't have the same worries as the people here. And I was envy of them, for a minute. I was listening to some very folkish-pop music and couldn't help but thinking "wow, is that all they can write about?" - it's not like we're low on folkish-pop-cheap-songs, but there's always the mention or the mood of war/something going on on the background that's there. Sorry, I guess the moving affects me. The sis yelled at me for acting selfish for refusing to move to Ma'ale Adumim - a settlement, and it got to me.)
{{smonster}} families can be hard.
The new version is mostly just rearranging the old version, but it leaves out the "to be cheerful." I think I like that omission. I have no obligation to be cheerful in the same way that I have an obligation to protect and improve the world around me.
t edit: it also adds "courageous and strong." I like that, too. But the rhythm of the new one is all wrong.

He can be entertaining at times. My favorite is the Daily Show episode where they caught him claiming he never called the president a racist 75 seconds after calling the president a racist (not by implication, flat out).
Girl Scout Promises and Laws since 1912.
I, personally, like the one about "A Girl Scout keeps herself pure." [link]
I wonder why the "friend to animals" bit survived through several revisions, but then was abandoned at the same time that they got rid of "thrifty" and "clean in thought, word, and deed." The "Cheerful" bit lasted a good 84 years, though.
