Famous quotes containing the words texas, state and/or highway:
“Worn down by the hoofs of millions of half-wild Texas cattle driven along it to the railheads in Kansas, the trail was a bare, brown, dusty strip hundreds of miles long, lined with the bleaching bones of longhorns and cow ponies. Here and there a broken-down chuck wagon or a small mound marking the grave of some cowhand buried by his partners “on the lone prairie” gave evidence to the hardships of the journey.”

—For the State of California, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“The highway leads to Heaven, but each finds his own way.”
