Playing with fire is bad for those who burn themselves. For the rest of us, it is a very great pleasure.

Childhood is the most beautiful of all life's seasons.

There's two to wash, two to dry; There's two who argue, two who cry; There's two to kiss, two to hug; and best of all, there's two to love!

Don't learn safety by accident.

A gypsy fire is on the hearth, Sign of the carnival of mirth; Through the dun fields and from the glade Flash merry folk in masquerade, For this is Hallowe'en!

If you don't think it's safe, it probably isn't.

A man may smile and bid you hail Yet wish you to the devil; But when a good dog wags his tail, You know he's on the level.
