“There are only two kinds of men in this world: Honest men and dishonest men. ...Any man who says the world owes him a living is dishonest. The same God that made you and me made this earth. And He planned it so that it would yield every single thing that the people on it need. But He was careful to plan it so that it would only yield up its wealth in exchange for the labor of man. Any man who tries to share in that wealth without contributing the work of his brain or his hands is dishonest.”

“Always remember, Son, the best boss is the one who bosses the least. Whether it's cattle, or horses, or men; the least government is the best government. ”

There are jewels and gems all through this book. I love the weight carried by the words his father speaks. I think he was one of the few that meant every word he said. I want to be like that...especially as a parent. No empty threats. No venting. Just well thought out speech filled with truth, grace, and discernment for the moment. How 'bout you?
