Wild West Discussion – October 2009

Discussions  | one comment  | Print This Post  | Email This Post

Western screenplays put all sorts of interesting words in the mouths of fictional and historic characters. But actual Western frontier figures have produced their fair share of memorable (and perhaps even true) quotes. For instance, newspaperman William Forbes’ reason for investing in a saloon: “Of 20 men, 19 patronize the saloon and one the newspaper. I’m going with the crowd.” What’s the best quote you’ve heard from the real Wild West?
