Floyd used the following Edgar A. Guest poem often in his speeches: "I'd like to think when life is done that I have filled a needed post that here and there I have paid my fare with more than idle talk and boast that I have taken gifts divine The bread of life and manhood fine And tried to use them now and then In service to my fellowman."
