Charles Portis Quote

I would not put a thief in my mouth to steal my brains.


Chapter 3, p. 59 : 'Mattie Ross,' refusing 'Rooster Cogburn's' offer of a drink of whiskey - True Grit (1968)


I would not put a thief in my mouth to steal my brains.

I would not put a thief in my mouth to steal my brains.

I would not put a thief in my mouth to steal my brains.

I would not put a thief in my mouth to steal my brains.
