Go west young man, go west.
"Go west young man..... and grow up with the country"
John B.L. Soule
Horace Greeley is often credited with a famous quote actually made by John B. L. Soule. The quote first appeared as the title to the 1851, Terre Haute Express editorial written by Mr. Soule. Along with being wrongly credited to Mr. Greeley, it has also often been misquoted. It was originally written as:
"Go West, young man, and grow up with the country."
