The Code of the West
Ask no more and give no less than honesty, courage, loyalty, generosity, and fairness
Don't never interfere with something that ain't botherin' you none
Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance
Never take to sawin' on a branch that's supportin' you, unless you're being hung from it
There's more ways to skin a cat than stickin' his head in a boot jack and jerkin' on his tail
After weeks of beans and taters, even a change to taters and beans is good
Never kick a fresh turd on a hot day
After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him.
The moral: when you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.
If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'
Never smack a man who's chewin' tobacco
Never follow good whiskey with water, unless you're out of good whiskey
The biggest liar you'll ever have to deal with probably watches you shave his face in the mirror every morning
If you get to thinkin' you're a person of some influence, try orderin' somebody else's dog around
Don't worry about bittin' off more than you can chew. Your mouth is probably a whole lot bigger'n you think
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment
Always drink upstream from the herd
Never drop your gun to hug a grizzly
Trust everybody in the game, but always cut the cards
If you're ridin' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there
No matter where you ride to, that's where you are
Some things just ain't funny
There's two theories to arguin' with a woman. Neither one works.
Don't squat with yer spurs on
Only a buzzard feeds on his friends
The only way to drive cattle fast is slowly
Always take a good look at what you're eatin'. It's not so important to know what it is, but it's critical to know what it was
The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and stick it in your pocket
Never miss a good chance to shut up
No tree is too big for a short dog to lift his leg on
When you get to where you're goin', the first thing to do is take care of the horse you rode in on
Never joke with mules or cooks as they have no sense of humor
