“I was tired of an outlaw's life. I have been hunted for twenty-one years. I have literally lived in the saddle. I have never known a day of perfect peace. It was one long, anxious, inexorable, eternal vigil. When I slept it was literally in the midst of an arsenal. If I heard dogs bark more fiercely than usual, or the feet of horses in a greater volume of sound than usual, I stood to arms. Have you any idea of what a man must endure who leads such a life? No, you cannot. No one can unless he lives it for himself.” IfsMenYearsLongHas BeensIdeasSoundPerfectKnownGreaterHeardFeetDogArmsEternalHorseTwentiesTiredEndureMidstAnxiousUsualVolumeBarkTwenty OneArsenalOutlawHuntedInexorableSaddlesPerfect Peace Author:Frank James

“In the large sense the primary cause of the Great Depression was the war of 1914-1918. Without the war there would have been no depression of such dimensions.
