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

Keep skunks, bankers, and lawyers at a distance.

Forgive your enemies. it messes up their heads.

Do not corner something that you know is meaner than you.

Every path has a few puddles.

When you wallow with pigs, expect to get dirty.

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

Always drink upstream from the herd.

Lettin’ the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin’ it back in.

Life is simpler when you plow around the stump.

Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a second time.
