All men have an instinct for conflict at least, all healthy men.
From quiet homes and first beginning, Out to the undiscovered ends, There's nothing worth the wear of winning, But laughter and the love of friends.
I'm tired of Love I'm still more tired of Rhyme. But Money gives me pleasure all the time.
The moment a man talks to his fellows he begins to lie.
When I am dead, I hope it is said, 'His sins were scarlet, but his books were read'.
