An Old Farmer's Advice
Your fences need to be horse-high,
pig-tight and bull-strong
Keep skunks and bankers
and lawyers 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
Forgive your enemies
It messes up their heads
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
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
AND LEAVE THE REST
TO GOD!
