Mark Twain once asked a neighbor if he might borrow a set of his 

 books. The neighbor replied ungraciously that he was welcome to 

 read them in his library, but he had a rule never to let his books 

 leave his house. Some weeks later the same neighbor sent over to 

 ask for the loan of Mark Twain's lawn-mower. 



"Certainly," said Mark, "but since I make it a rule never to let it 

 leave my lawn you will be obliged to use it there." — Ladies' Home
