    “It takes a heap o’ livin’ in a house t’ make it home,
    A heap o’ sun an’ shadder, an’ ye sometimes have t’ roam

    An’ hunger fer ‘em somehow, with ‘em allus on yer mind.”
    —Edgar Albert Guest (1881–1959)

    “Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.”
    —Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919)
