Belle Starr's Race Mare

“Sometimes,” Belle Starr reflects, “you got to use your brains. Sometimes you got to go for the dream and never mind what anybody thinks or says. Life's pretty short. If I don't break my neck on a green horse, or get hanged, or shot, I'll sit on my porch when I'm old and remember the good times, all of 'em, and how every once in a while I found glory.”
