From my quote journal. Words to live by and which we would all do well to remember. Now, if only I could remember them when those dogs are barking!
"Pay no attention, Bud. You've no call to take up anything if you don't notice it. There will always be folks who will talk, and the better you do in the world the more bad things they will say of you. Back there in the settlement you remember how the dogs used to run out and bark at our wagon?"
"Yes, Ma."
"Did the wagon stop?"
"No, Ma."
"Remember that, son. The dogs bark, but the wagons go on their way, and if you're going someplace you haven't time to bother with barking dogs."
