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

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.

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.

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

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

My parents were horrified when I told them I wanted to be an author.

An artist's job is to articulate what might otherwise be incoherent.

Basic problem is that all models are wrong - not got enough middle and low level clouds.

Give your best to the challenges. And what you get will be even better.
