"Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind."

"I keep six honest serving men, They taught me all I knew, Their names are What and Why and When, And How and Where and Who."

"If I were hanged on the highest hill, Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine! I know whose love would follow me still Mother o' mine, O mother o' mine!"

"The heart of a man to the heart of a maid - Light of my tents, be fleet - Morning awaits at the end of the world, And the world is all at our feet."

"Most amusements only mean trying to win another person's money." - Plain Tales from the Hills

"Oh, Adam was a gardener, and God who made him sees
That half a proper gardener's work is done upon his knees."
- The Glory of the Garden
