From the Condensed Fourth Edition of the Greenhorns' Guide for Beginning Farmers (2011):

"Final words, from some of our farmer elders:

In it for the long haul? Slow down.
Don't breathe dust,
practice tractor safety,
consider long term effects,
save your back,
keep poise under pressure,
maintain graciousness,
call your mother for a pep talk,
don't swear loudly from the front porch."
