Notable quotes

“Texas has four seasons... Drought, flood, blizzard, and twister.”
— Anonymous proverb, as quoted in The Big Apple
“Thermopylae had her messenger of defeat—the Alamo had none.”
— Thomas Jefferson Green, reported in Respectfully Quoted: A Dictionary of Quotations (1989). Green is said to have included the sentence in a speech he helped Edward Burleson prepare. While Burleson has often been credited with originating the sentence as well as using it, he lacked the classical education necessary to have made the allusion. The sentence became popular after it was engraved on the first monument to the Alamo, which is located in Austin, Texas. The 10-foot-high statue, made of stones from the Alamo, was destroyed by fire when the Capitol at Austin burned. Another monument subsequently erected on the Capitol grounds also included the sentence. J. Frank Dobie, "The Alamo’s Immortalization of Words", Southwest Review (Summer 1942), p. 406–10.
“Texas will again lift its head and stand among the nations. it ought to do so, for no country upon the globe can compare with it in natural advantages.”
— Sam Houston, first President of the Republic of Texas. As quoted in the Sam Houston Memorial Museum.
“One objection I have heard voiced to works of this kind—dealing with Texas—is the amount of gore spilled across the pages. It can not be otherwise. In order to write a realistic and true history of any part of the Southwest, one must narrate such things, even at the risk of monotony.”
— Robert E. Howard in a letter to (March 1933).
“Honor the Texas flag; I pledge allegiance to thee, Texas, one state under God, one and indivisible.”
— Pledge of allegiance to the state flag as amended in 2007. Chapter 3100, Sections 3100.101–3100.104 of the Texas Government Code, as reported by Texas State Library and Archives Commission.
“Saskatchewan is much like Texas; except it's more friendly to the United States.”
— Attributed to Adlai Stevenson. This was attributed to Stevenson without reference in 1001 Greatest Things Ever Said About Texas (2006) by Donna Ingham, p. 92. It was also attributed without reference in "Reporters' Notebook", The Buffalo News, September 24, 1992. No closer connection to Stevenson has been found.
