A cowboy knows that the only time you fail is when you don’t get back on the horse. A cowgirl’s spirit is as untamed as the wildflowers that bloom on the open range. Life is too short to ride slow horses, so find yourself a wild stallion and let it run free. A cowboy’s loyalty is as timeless as the prairies he calls home.

The quotes below are from popular cowboys and Western writers of the past: A cowboy is any man with a horse and guts – William James, Western writer Good whiskey in the evening, a soft bed, a glass of buttermilk, or a feisty gentleman like myself – Gus McCrae, Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurtry
