"The Quick and The Dead" By Louis L'amour

Not much to say about this book. L'amour is a master at writing westerns and I don't think I've yet to read a book by him and not like it. It's an easy, fun, quick read.

I really like this quote that is in the L'amour books (about L'amour):

“I think of myself in the oral tradition— as a troubadour, a village tale-teller, the man in the shadows of the campfire. That’s the way I’d like to be remembered as a storyteller. A good storyteller.” – Louis L'amour

Here are a few good quotes from the book:

"You never learn anything when you’re talkin’, boy, only when you’re listenin’.” – Louis L'amour in "The Quick and The Dead"

"I’ve learned something, he told himself. I’ve learned that it is better to move than just to sit. One has to act." – Louis L'amour in "The Quick and The Dead"

“No, ma’am, but you have to fight for most of the things worth havin’…or somebody does.” – Louis L'amour in "The Quick and The Dead"
