"Careful with fire," is good advice, we know:
"Careful with words," is ten times doubly so.
Thoughts unexpressed may sometimes fall back dead;
But God himself can't kill them when they're said.

But I have learned a thing or two; I know as sure as fate,
When we lock up our lives for wealth, the gold key comes too late.

I've watched my duty, straight an' true,
An' tried to do it well;
Part of the time kept heaven in view,
An' part steered clear of hell.

If there's a heaven upon the earth, a fellow knows it when
He's been away from home a week, and then gets back again.

If we who have sailed together
Flit out of each other's view,
The world will sail on, I think,
Just as it used to do.

Over all our happy country -- over all our Nation spread,
Is a band of noble heroes -- is our Army of the Dead.

So I have talked with Betsey and Betsey has talked with me, And we have agreed together that we can't never agree

Speech

Things at home are crossways, and Betsy and I are out.

To appreciate heaven well, it's good for a person to have some fifteen minutes of hell.

Underneath an apple-tree
Sat a maiden and her lover;
And the thoughts within her he
Yearned, in silence, to discover.
Round them danced the sunbeams bright,
Green the grass-lawn stretched before them
While the apple blossoms white
Hung in rich profusion o'er them.

We arg'ed the thing at breakfast, we arg'ed the thing at tea, And the more we arg'ed the question, the more we didn't agree

Worm or beetle -- drought or tempest -- on a farmer's land may fall,
Each is loaded full o' ruin, but a mortgage beats 'em all.
