  • Who Said "Remember the Alamo"?

    “Remember the Alamo!” It’s a quote familiar to any good Texan and a classic line from American history, but where did it originate?

    No one knows for certain who first said, “Remember the Alamo.” The last stand of the Texian and Tejano soldiers at the Alamo mission - that is, American and Mexican settlers who fought together for an independent Texas - became the rallying cry for Texas independence. By the Battle of San Jacinto, only a month or so later, it was a common enough phrase that General Sam Houston -- who would become one of Texas’s first senators and after whom the city of Houston is named -- referenced it when he rallied his troops.

  • Famous Davy Crockett Quotes That Remain Unforgettable

    When you think of Davy Crockett, you probably think of either a coonskin cap, a buckskin jacket or the bear he killed when he was only three. The famous frontiersman did probably wear some coonskin and buckskin growing up in the backwoods of Tennessee (where he probably didn’t kill that bear as a toddler). However, the legacy of Davy Crockett reaches far beyond a Hollywood costume and a catchy song.
