Quotes
-
Les Hunt : That's 50 miles from here.
Michob : Correction, sir, it's 3 days, a dozen mountains, and one good pair of boots from here.
Gil Favor : You walked the ways?
Michob : Only since that great beady-eyed monster I called good friend horse decided to part company with me and my wagon and there on the open side of a cliff. Phew, aside from my neck, this was all I could salvage.
-
Michob : He who is hungry never finds the bread hard.
-
Michob : It's true that I've lost my stock, but, you see, to a man of commerce, adversity is where to gain fortune. Turn of the wheel, so to speak. Today disaster, tomorrow the end of the rainbow.
Gil Favor : Maybe in St Louis or even in Homeville, but not Sloan's Crossing. That's an open grave. Both you and I know the only commerce a town like that understands begins and ends with a pack of cards and a stock of six-bit reservation fire water.
-
Michob : No man could ever run away from trouble, any more than he can cut off his shadow and bury it.
-
Michob : Mountains are and they're crooked, and they're flat, but they're still mountains. And water is green and blue and white, and it's still water. And I am still a man. Just like you. I bring you no bad luck. I bring no disaster, and I certainly did not bring myth to life. That no man can do.
-
Michob : A man's last hours cannot be measured by the clock.
