Your  fences need to be horse-high, pig-tight
And bull-strong.

*Keep  skunks and bankers at a
Distance.

*Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

* A bumble bee is considerably faster than  a
John Deere tractor.

* Words that soak into your ears are  whispered...not yelled.

* Meanness don't jes' happen overnight.

*  Do not corner something that you know is meaner
Than you.

* It  don't take a very big person to carry a
Grudge.

* You cannot unsay a cruel word.

* Every path has a few puddles.

* When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

* The best sermons are lived,  not preached.

* Most of the stuff people worry about ain't never gonna happen anyway.

* Don't judge folks by their relatives.

* Remember that silence is sometimes the best
   Answer.

* Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get
   Older and think back, you'll enjoy it a second time.

* Don't  interfere with somethin' that ain't botherin you none.

* Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a Rain dance.  

* If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop  diggin'.  

* Sometimes you get, and sometimes you get got.

* The biggest troublemaker you'll probably ever
Have to deal with, watches you from The mirror every mornin'.

* Always drink upstream from the herd.

* Good judgment comes from  experience, and a
Lotta that comes from bad judgment.

*  Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot
Easier than puttin' it back  in.

* If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some
Influence,  try orderin' somebody else's dog around.

* Live simply. Love  generously. Care deeply.
Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

*  Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he's too old to fight, he'll just  kill you...
