“I’ll Gum It Till I Go Home…”

Whatever you may think of the old-time evangelist, Billy Sunday, you’ve got to love this quote about fighting sin:

“I’m against sin. I’ll kick it as long as I’ve got a foot, and I’ll fight it as long as I’ve got a fist. I’ll butt it as long as I’ve got a head. I’ll bite it as long as I’ve got a tooth. And when I’m old and fistless and footless and tootheless, I’ll gum it till I go home to Glory and it goes home to perdition!”
