10 thoughts to ponder from trippy Twitter account

As I mentioned on Monday, Discovery's new scripted series Klondike premiered on the new HD Discovery Channel on Monday night (30 June) at 21h00.

One of the gems of the series is Sam Shepard, who plays Father Judge.
 
Sam Shepard as is he is. As Father Judge.

As you may or may not know, Sam Shepard is also a renowned American playwright. He won a Pulitzer Prize for his play Buried Child and he's written many other classics including Cowboy Mouth, which he co-wrote with his lover, poet Patti Smith.

Cowboy Mouth has always had a cult following and now it's sparked a Twitter account with trippy quotes.  I found this excellent Twitter account called @CowboyMouthFun - it parodies Sam Shepard, in a good way.

It's by TV writer Nick Amadeus who posts quotes about life in the style of Sam Shepard's writing in Cowboy Mouth, which includes twangy Americana. They're the bomb so I thought I'd share.

These are my Top 10 (+1) faves:

Don't blame th' Cold, it was here long b'fore you.
 

He ain't a brother 'til y' cried with 'em.
 

Sometimes angels 're th' demons that scare ya back onto th' path.
 

It ain't a failure if yer still breathin'.
 

Allies pr'tect who ya are, but Enemies shape who ya become.
 

Your phone is the mistress in your relationship with humanity.
 

Sometimes th' best way t' beat a movin' train is t' step outta th' way.
 

Weddings are when you find out if your friends were faking poverty.
 

There's better things th'n things.
 

All change is painful. Get hurtin'.
 

Ev'ry good story is about a fella headed th' wrong way.
