  Helen Paige : And did you ever stop to add up the cost? Mother was 31 when she died and Dad was 44.

  Virgil Paige : What is it that you want to do instead?

  Helen Paige : I want to sell out! Don't tell me you never thought about it.

  Virgil Paige : Helen, we had three generations of people give up their lives for this ranch, not so we could sell out.

  Helen Paige : When we found Homer he was just sitting there next to Overjack. And Overjack was dead. Homer knew it, but he just sat there because he promised not to leave. Promises don't belong to the dead, Virg - they're for the living.
