You did a fantastic and fun job on these quotes. While others may have dug deep for lofty quotes from our most learned scholars and statesmen, you picked "An ugly green puppet." You also choose a fictional TV character and frontiersman.
Very clever and creative.
Good luck in the contest.
Mary

Great quotes you got there, partner. :) I like Yoda'. You either do it or not. If you do it, fantastic, if you don't do it why then, "Get out of Dodge." :) This is a good entry for the Quotes by Others Interpreted. Thank you for sharing.

Dang Earl, I am glad I came here to check what others were doing with this prompt, because you nailed it with my favorite saying ever, "Get out of Dodge."
There is a gunsmoke episode on at least six times a day in my house. I just never change the channel from the Western one. Trivia ? for you. What were Matt's most used two words? Lol, I normally don't quiz people in reviews.
Cute, fun and so true are your quotes and interpretations my friend. Great Job!

I think my favorite quote is the one by Davy Crockett. That man had gumption. You did a terrific job with your poetry. I loved Matt Dillon. I watched him every chance I got. Have a great evening. Until next time. Shirley

Earl great entry! Masterful in presentation and as always you were spot on with your love of the wester themes - I was equally drawn to: "The Man who says he can, and the man who says he cannot, are both correct"
-- Confucius

You should compete well in this contest!

Earl, LOL, I love it. I don't know which one I like best. I have an autographed photo of Matt Dillion, aka James Arness, in my office, watching me write this review. And I am a fifth-generation Texan dating back to 1836. My Great-Great-Great-Grandmother came to Texas on the Crockett-led wagon train from Tennessee. When they reached the Red River, Davy left early and went to the Alamo. Excellent work. Terry.

This contest has taught me one thing for sure, and that is the entries are filled with humor, far surpassing what I review daily on FS. Thanks for partaking Earl, and best of luck.

Your four quotations were totally different and you did a great job re-interpreting them.

My favorite:

Get out of Dodge"
-- Marshall Matt Dillon

Best of luck in the contest,
Cheers. John

I think Kat Hite is the one who wrote most of the Gunsmoke series. I could always tell her scripts versus others. She would always bring Kitty into play in some way or the other. Thanks for the memories.

I enjoyed your fun contest entry, Earl. I liked the way
you formatted the lines with the bold print for the quotes
and the use of rhymes. All of the quotes made sense,
but your interpretations were funny and great. I can't
pick just one, because I liked them all.
Thanks for sharing and best wishes in the contest, Jan
