Ty Ty Walden : You boys don't seem to catch on. Its not important that I get money out of God's little acre. The fact that I can walk on it, stand on it, feel God is there.
Buck Walden : What's all this got to do with me and Griselda?
Ty Ty Walden : All you boys seem to think about are the things you can see and touch. Well, that ain't livin'. It's the things you feel down inside ya. That's what livin's fer. If you felt more on how Griselda feels inside her, no other man could touch her.

Darlin' Jill : You ought to be ashamed of yourself, Buck.
Buck Walden : You shut up. You don't look ashamed for anything. You're both a lyin'. A pair of loose fillies.
