Do You Feel Lucky?

More Western Philosophy

"Keep your hand off your pistol-butt unless you're hankerin' for a showdown."

"When you cut cards, the other players should all be about as drunk as you. A lot less drunk, and they'll clean you out. Too much drunker - they'll try to shoot you when you clean them out."

"A one-horse town's no place for a horse thief. Especially if you plan to settle down."

"The thing to keep in mind about the sheriff is, if you shoot him they may find you guilty. But if he shoots you, they will sure find you guilty."

"Gunslinging would be a hell of a lot less risky without the whisky, card games and loose women, because there wouldn't be nobody doin' it."
