Worm or beetle -- drought or tempest -- on a farmer's land may fall, Each is loaded full o' ruin, but a mortgage beats 'em all. (Quote by - Will Carleton)

Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth; / Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind. (Quote by - Bible)
