Be thankful we're
not getting all the government we're paying for.
Never miss a good
chance to shut up.
Life is not about
how fast you run, or how high you climb, but how well you bounce.
Keep skunks,
lawyers, and bankers at a distance.
Life is simpler
when you plough around the stump.
Forgive your
enemies. It messes with their heads.
Don't sell your
mule to buy a plough.
Don't corner
something meaner than you.
It don't take a
very big person to carry a grudge.
When you wallow
with pigs, expect to get dirty.
Most of the stuff
people worry about never happens.
Don't squat with
your spurs on.
Remember that
silence is sometimes the best answer.
Don't interfere
with something that ain't botherin' you none.
Timing has a lot
to do with the outcome of a rain dance.
It's better to be
a has-been than a never-was.
A wink's as good
as a nod to a blind mule.
If you find
yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.
There never was a
horse that couldn't be rode, there never was a rider that couldn't be
throwed.
When in doubt, let
your horse figure it out.
Behind every
successful rancher is a wife who works in town.
He's all hat and
no cattle.
Never hire the
people you drink with.
A man afoot is no
man at all.
When a bad man
dies he either goes to hell or the Pecos.
A good fence
should be pig tight, horse high, and bull strong.
Don't worry about
bitin' off more'n you can chew; your mouth is probably a whole lot
bigger'n you think.
Good judgment
comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment.
If you're ridin'
ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then, to make sure
it's still there with ya.
