Quote by Louis L'Amour (1908-1988)

• There are, in the affairs of men and nations, inexorable tides from which they cannot remain aloof.

• A mind, like a home, is furnished by its owner, so if one's life is cold and bare he can blame none but himself.

• Only the weak blame parents, their race, their times, their lack of good fortunes or the quirks of fate. Everyone has within them the power to say, "This I am today, that I shall become tomorrow." The wish, however, must be implemented by deeds.

• Nobody got anywhere in the world by simply being content.

• The trail is the thing, not the end of the trail. Travel too fast and you miss all you are traveling for.
