Quotes

I don't believe you know anything about a man like me or a country like this. It takes rough men, Miss Fair, to tame a rough country; rough men, but good men. Your father is in that class. As for you, I don't think you'd measure up, and you'll do well to leave it. You're a hothouse flower, very soft, very appealing and very useless...In the world you are going to, men want pretty useless women. They want toys for their lighte moments, and we have those women out here, too, only we have... Louis L'Amour
When at the typewriter I am no longer where I site but am away across the mountains, in ancient cities or on the Great Plains among the buffalo. Often I think of what pitiful fools are those who use mind-altering drugs to seek feelings they do not have, each drug taking a little more from what they have of mind, leaving them a little less. Give the brain encouragement from study, from thinking, from visualizing, and no drugs are needed. Louis L'Amour
Louis L'Amour quote: "We do not at present educate people to think but, rather, to..."
We do not at present educate people to think but, rather, to have opinions, and that is something altogether different. Louis L'Amour
Louis L'Amour quote: "A book is less important for what it says than for what it..."
A book is less important for what it says than for what it makes you think. Louis L'Amour
I do not think much of ages. People are people. What does it matter how old or young they are? It is a category, and I do not like categories. It is a sort of pigeonhole or a label. Louis L'Amour
