 It was the forty-fathom slumber that clears the soul and eye and heart, and sends you to breakfast ravening.

 It's clever, but is it Art?

 It's Tommy this, and Tommy that, and 'chuck 'im out, the brute,' But it's 'Savior of his Country,' When the guns begin to shoot!

 Keep ye the Law - be swift in all obedience -/ Clear the land of evil, drive the road and bridge the ford.

 King Solomon drew merchantmen, / Because of his desire / For peacocks, apes and ivory, / From Tarshish unto Tyre.

 Like many other unfortunate young people, Harvey had never in all his life received a direct order - never, at least, without long, and sometimes tearful, explanations of the advantages of obedience and the reasons for the request.

 More men are killed by overwork than the importance of the world justifies.

 Most amusements only mean trying to win another person's money

 Never look backwards or you'll fall down the stairs.

 Never praise a sister to a sister in the hope of your compliments reaching the proper ears

 No doubt but ye are the People - your throne is above the King's. / Whoso speaks in your presence must say acceptable things.

 Now this is the Law of the Jungle - as old and as true as the sky.

 Of all the liars in the world, sometimes the worst are your own fears

 Of all the trees that grow so fair, / Old England to adorn, / Greater are none beneath the Sun, / Than Oak and Ash and Thorn.
