- Tom Sawyer: Suppose we find a brass pot, filled with a hundred dollars, rusty but fine. Or a rotten old chest, filled with diamonds! How 'bout that?
- Huckleberry Finn: Now that sounds bully, just bully! Just you give me the hundred dollars, and... I don't want no diamond.
- Tom Sawyer: All right, but I'm not gonna throw away any diamonds, well some of them is worth twenty dollars a piece. And there ain't but none of 'em that's worth six bits or a dollar!
- Huckleberry Finn: [flabbergasted] Nah!
- Tom Sawyer: Gospel truth! Well the kings and queens have slathers of 'em!
- Huckleberry Finn: Oh, never mind the kings, let's find a slather for us!
- Huckleberry Finn: [Tom and Huck are digging for treasure without any luck] Aw, Tom, we must be doin' something wrong...
- Tom Sawyer: It is kinda curious... maybe the witches are interfering?
- Huckleberry Finn: Aw, shucks, witches got no power in the day time.
- Tom Sawyer: That's so. I just wasn't thinking about that.
- Tom Sawyer: Of all the rotten luck. We were that close to having them burry the treasure right where we could dig it up for ourselves.
- Huckleberry Finn: Yeah,,, and we were that close to getting our throats cut. I call that good luck.
- Tom Sawyer: Doggone it, Huck, we're down four feet, there ain't no treasure here.
- Huckleberry Finn: Aw Tom, there's gotta be. I had that shadow marked there exactly!
- Tom Sawyer: Yeah, but we was only guessing it about the time. I guess we plain missed it.
