The World Changes (1933) Poster

Henry O'Neill: Orin Nordholm Sr.

Quotes 

  • Buffalo Bill Cody : You heard right, mister. They're drownin' in beef down in Texas. I've seen a million head roamin' about wild - yours for the takin'.

    Orin Nordholm Jr. : Well, why don't they drive 'em up north, and sell 'em?

    Buffalo Bill Cody : 'Cause they got better sense, that's why.

    Orin Nordholm Jr. : Well, they could drive 'em up over the Texas Trail, or the Chisholm Trail, on through to the new railroad at Sioux City or Abilene.

    Buffalo Bill Cody : Ha ha, it ain't quite that easy, son. I've been up and down that trail, and there's 2,000 miles of bad country. It's all a man can do to get through himself, without draggin' a herd of steers after him, ha ha.

    Orin Nordholm Jr. : Still, a man could make himself a heap of money if he could do it...

    Buffalo Bill Cody : Now, mind you, I ain't sayin' it can't be done. But drivin' steers ain't like drivin' cows to pasture. Texas longhorns are ornery critters!

    Orin Nordholm Sr. : Well, only a fool'd try it.

    Orin Nordholm Jr. : Can't never tell. That's what you said folks called you when you left for Dakota 20 years ago.

    Orin Nordholm Sr. : Hmm, maybe they did, son, but that was different.

    Orin Nordholm Jr. : Not to my way of thinkin'.

    Anna Nordholm : Yes, that was different, Orin. We come out here to get land, and build a home, for us. For you and your children after you where, God willing, we could all live... with no selfish seekin' after money.

    Buffalo Bill Cody : Ha ha, your ma's got you there, son!
