Habit Quotes

Because of the many problems hogs create, we want to see the sportsmen in Alabama take as many hogs as they possibly can, whenever they can. I know we have some hunters who really enjoy hunting hogs and who have some well-trained dogs that can find, chase, bay, catch and hold hogs. But we really want to see the number of hogs statewide reduced drastically because they do so much destruction to the habitat.

How shall I a habit break? As you did that habit make. As you gathered, you must lose; As you yielded, now refuse. Thread by thread the strands we twist Till they bind us, neck and wrist. Thread by thread the patient hand Must untwine, ere free we stand. As we builded, stone by stoene, We must toil, unhelped, alone, Till the wall is overthrown.
John Boyle O'Reilly
