Many of the phrases Father Abraham quotes continue to be familiar today. The essay's advice is based on the themes of work ethic and frugality.

'Have you somewhat to do tomorrow, do it today'
'The eye of a master will do more work than both his hands'
'Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise'
'For want of a nail...'
