[Eve] Arnold photographed Aimée, who talked about her role as the character Justine. Justine was also Jewish. Arnold recalls one of their talks: I am still haunted by two things she quoted. They seemed to say more about her than anything else I experienced with her during the three weeks I knew her on the film: Quote from Treblinka: "The Jews are prone to anguish but seldom given to despair." And a quote by an anonymous Jewish poet to his wife when the Nazis came to get them: "Till now we have lived with fear, now we can know hope." Arnold, Eve. Film Journal, Bloomsbury Publishing (2002) pp. 193-194

Think Like a Horse-Cowboy Wisdom-Rick Gore Horsemanship

A smooth sea never made a skillful sailor, a perfect horse never made a horseman.

Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco.

Just cause trouble comes visiting doesn't mean you have to offer it a place to sit down.

Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear, or a fool from any direction.

Nothing keeps you honest more that witnesses.

There are three kinds of men: the ones that learn by reading; the few who learn by observation; the rest of them have to pee on the electric fence.

If there is a hole in your story or your fence, something you rather did not get out, will.

Just because you are traveling a well marked trail, doesn't mean whoever made it knew where they was going.

Whether the glass is half-full or half empty, depends on whether you are drinking or pouring.

Firewood warms you twice, when you cut it and when you burn it.

The difference between young liars and old thieves is just a matter of time.

Money may buy you a dog, but only love can make him wag his tail.
