On Love:
Marrying for love may be a bit risky, but it is so honest that God can’t help but smile on it.
Love is said to be blind, but I know some fellows in love who can see twice as much in their sweethearts as I do.
On Life:
The man whose only pleasure in life is making money, weighs less on the moral scale than an angleworm.
Life is short, but it’s long enough to ruin any man who wants to be ruined.
The happiest time in a man’s life is when he is in the red hot pursuit of a dollar with a reasonable prospect of overtaking it.
On Honesty:
Honesty is the rarest wealth anyone can possess, and yet all the honesty in the world ain’t lawful tender for a loaf of bread.
On Learning:
Wisdom has never made a bigot, but learning has.
On Knowledge:
Knowledge is like money: the more he gets, the more he craves.
Knowledge is like money the more one gets, the more one craves.
