"[Pada 1889] bidang besar terakhir dari tanah India dinyatakan terbuka untuk pemukiman, di Oklahoma. Pengadu dan spekulan menaiki kuda-kuda mereka dan berbaris seperti trotters menunggu senjata start. Orang-orang yang gatal melompat pistol dan kemudian dikenal sebagai Sooners-dan Oklahoma kemudian disebut Negara Cepat."

--- Alistair Cooke

Versi Bahasa Inggris

[In 1889] the last big tract of Indian land was declared open for settlement, in Oklahoma. The claimants and the speculators mounted their horses and lined up like trotters waiting for a starting gun. The itchy ones jumped the gun and were ever after known as Sooners-and Oklahoma was thereafter called the Sooner State.
