But the West of the old times, with its strong characters, its stern battles and its tremendous stretches of loneliness, can never be blotted from my mind.

My restless, roaming spirit would not allow me to remain at home very long.

Every Indian outbreak that I have ever known has resulted from broken promises and broken treaties by the government.

I could never resist the call of the trail.

The cholera had broken out at the post, and five or six men were dying daily.

The Indians said the bones were those of a race of people ... three times the size of a man.

As a good horse is not very apt to jump over a bank, if left to guide himself, I let mine pick his own way.

I felt only as a man can feel who is roaming over the prairies of the far West, well armed, and mounted on a fleet and gallant steed.

The Indians kept increasing in numbers until it was estimated that we were fighting from 800 to 1,000 of them.

My debut upon the world's stage occurred on February 26th, 1845.

The Indians were well mounted and felt proud and elated because they had been made United States soldiers.

All we have is now, this moment. If you live in the future, you’ll miss things, right here, right now, and you’ll regret it later.

Don't try to fix the past, try to build the future.

All I want to do now is look at life. You may come and look at it with me, if you care to.

My Destiny is sealed but the journey is my choice

You can't really judge characters, because that's when it gets really hard to play them.

Man is a beautiful machine that works very badly. He is like a watch of which the most that can be said is that its cosmetic effect is good.

Thirty years people have been asking for a lawful system of immigration to end this lawlessness, and government on both parties have refused to give it to them.

The challenge and the energy running requires may be a selfish one, but it actually motivates me to be stronger in my relationships.

I think religion might throw up a kind of resistance, but I think if one talks about conditioning we can all kind of understand that.

Educate yourself on what's going on around the world where children are dying. Educate yourself on what's going on in Africa.
