A drop of honey catches more flies than a hogshead of vinegar.
One catches more flies with a spoonful of honey than with twenty casks of vinegar.
When the conduct of men is designed to be influenced, persuasion, kind unassuming persuasion, should ever be adopted. It is an old and true maxim that 'a drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall.' So with men. If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of honey that catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the great highroad to his reason, and which, once gained, you will find but little trouble in convincing him of the justice of your cause, if indeed that cause is really a good one.

More flies are caught with honey than with vinegar.
You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.
More flies are taken with a drop of honey than a tun of vinegar.
Flies are easier caught with honey than with vinegar.
A spoonful of honey will catch more flies than a gallon of vinegar.
More flies are caught with a drop of honey than with a barrel of vinegar.
You will catch more flies with a spoonful of honey than with a gallon of vinegar.
You catch more flies with a spoonful of honey than a barrel full of vinegar.

Nkwocha
His love is always around you but,
Try to think deeper to understand his ways;
For flies are easier caught with honey than vinegar.
Somebody is raped in a church and,
The congregation claim to worship their God!
For they've covered up the case and told this girl not to talk,
But Nkwocha is around to feed us back with more news from this church.
To bath in the lake of love and to be nailed to the stake!
But this story is now noted by the villagers around;
Because something isn't right over here! !

Saigon
You got everything that a girl should grow
Im so afraid to kiss you I might lose control
You can hold me tighter but turn loose of my gun
Its a sentimental present all the way from saigon
Honey, honey, honey, please call me
You dont need no money we can do it for free
I got a friend in phoenix with a two-way radio
All the static in my attic getting ready to blow
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
All the static in my attic getting ready to blow
I was talking to the mailman late last week
He had a letter in his sweater from stuttering don
He said things are getting better in sa, sa, sa, sa, sa
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Things are getting better back in saigon
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Things are getting better back in saigon
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Things are getting better back in saigon
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Saigon, honey, honey, honey
Things are getting better back in saigon

Honors
When the column of light on the waters is glassed,
As blent in one glow seem the shine and the stream;
But wave after wave through the glory has passed,
Just catches, and flies as it catches, the beam
So honors but mirror on mortals their light;
Not the man but the place that he passes is bright.
