Western Tales Quotes

“Joey laid his head on his arms and wept. What seemed trivial to others is the pure essence of Hell to the sufferer, and the incubus of realised cowardice is the worst that haunts manhood.

From that orgy of weakness and tears, Joey Donory rose with an iron resolve crystallising in his liquor-muddled brain. He had reached the state in which even the most trivial discomforts loom monstrously and deathly portent. And Joey's troubles were not trivial.”
― Robert E. Howard, Western Tales
