"Faint heart never filled a flush."

"Man is the only animal you can skin more than once."

"Hell has no fury like a man who loses with a four of a kind."

"Love your fellow man, and stay out of his troubles if you can."

"Marriage is the only game of chance I know of where both people can lose."

"He who plays and runs away lives to run another day."

"Work is fine for killing time, but it's a shaky way to make a living."

"Never play in a rigged game, unless you rig it yourself."

"If you haven't got something nice to say about a man, it's time to change the subject."

"Never cry over spilled milk... it could've been whiskey."

"Early to bed and early to rise, is the curse of the working class.”

"A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. A thousand to one... that's a pretty good advantage."

"If the Lord had more respect for money, He would have given it to a higher class of people."
