Additional quotes by Louis L'Amour

It didn't seem fair, but then, a lot of things aren't. We take them as they come.

After a few days, I mused, I would have no trouble. Whoever heard of a revolution of fat men?

The way I see it, every time a man gets up in the morning he starts his life over, Sure, the bills are there to pay, and the job is there to do, but you don't have to stay in a pattern. You can always start over, saddle a fresh horse and take another trail. ~Kearney McRaven
