Philip Henry SheridanIf I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell
About This Quote
The saying, “If I owned Texas and Hell, I would rent out Texas and live in Hell” is a humorous way of saying that it is good to be rich. The rich have the resources to go where they want to. They don’t have to live in a place that doesn’t suit their fancy. Perhaps the person who said this was not happy with his own lot in life, so he chose to live in Hell rather than Texas.
