âYouâre the only one I can rely on to stay strong right now.â
âWe got fire and shelterâ thatâs a start.â
âI never thought Iâd be so pleased to see your face.â
âKnew a fellerâ got bit by a dog; died an hour later.â
âThanks for coming for me.â
âYâknow, weâre gonna need to come up with a better story for that scar.â
âSo, freezing, bleeding, starving, damn near getting eaten to death, ainât good enough for you?â
âYou always said revenge is a luxury we canât afford.â
âYou know I got your back.â
âIs that any way to greet an old friend?â
âYouâre always one with the jokes, arenât you?â
âI just donât want anymore people to die.â
âSounds like he has more than enough to share.â
âGet to work, but stay out of trouble.â
âIâve seen shit with more common sense than you!â
âYouâre my favorite parasite. NoâŚringwormâs my favorite parasiteâ youâre my second favorite parasite. I lied⌠Ringworm, then rats with the plague, then you.â
âIâve got an unfortunate face.â
âYou won the fight alreadyâ surely thatâs enough?â
âI could do with a break from this place.â
âI fear you donât know how to help anyone excepting yourself.â
âOnly the feeblest of men take jobs in the government.â
âPlease send him my worst regards.â
â[Name] wouldnât know sadness if it died in is bed.â
âItâs about time that you started to earn you keep.â
âWhy do you have to speak so much? ItâsâŚincessant.â
âLooks like Iâve turned into the goddamn errand boy.â
âYou ainât as tough and dense as all that.â
âThatâs not how you are.â
âWell, maybe you donât know me as well as you think you do.â
âHow did someone even come up with them words?â
âI ainât chopping vegetables for a living.â
âIâm sorry, [Name], was there insufficient feathers in your pillow?â
âI ainât afraid of dying.â
âI ainât here to rob you, though that seems easy enough.â
âThink of it as payback for [Name].â
âI ainât in the revenge business, [Name].â
âI swear he talked the whole way and never actually said a damn thing.â
âHe somehow manages to be both lucky and unlucky at the same time.â
âYou shouldâve taken the money.â
âYou know me; I like to make friends in low places.â
âYou mess upâ itâs just one of them things; I mess upâ Iâm the prize idiot.â
âYou are a man of profoundly limited intelligence.â
âWell, of course, itâs probably a trapâŚbut whatâve we got to lose finding out?â
âOkay, just keep calm until I give you a reason not to.â
âOh, my dear and trusted friend, with you watching over, I would walk into hell itself.â
âI dream too big; I care too muchâ thatâs my problem.â
âAll you do is complain when things donât work outâ except when itâs your goddamn fault.â
âIf you ainât gonna be civilized about thisâŚâ
âI donât expect you to understand this, but I have never been more proud of you than I am right now.â
âThis place ainât no such thing as civilizedâ Itâs man so in love with greed he has forgotten himself and found only appetites.â
âHe makes my skin crawl⌠Some swarthy cocksucker⌠You know what I mean, friend?â
âIf youâre a girl without means in this world, life is very scaryâŚâ
âShe didnât love enough, I guess⌠Or I wouldnât change.â
âIn these books, life seems so simple, but, in reality, I⌠I canât make head nor tail of it.â
âOh, I see that kindly face of yours and I know, for the right inducements, a gentleman such as yourself could be mighty kind.â
âOh now, you keep saying that, but you donât mean nothing by it.â
âShe is driven by forces I scarcely understandâŚâ
âThatâs what love has done to her, I guess.â
âWe each gotâŚ.fifteen dollars. Oh, and a quarter⌠Donât forget the quarter.â
âIf thereâs a problem, for me.â
âI thought you wasnât getting involved.â
âWe are gonna be harvesting mangoes in Tahiti.â
âYou better be right about this oneâŚâ
âHave some goddamn faith.â
âI am bending over backwards to make a future for us!â
âThere simply isnât a reality in which we do nothing, and get everything.â
âI think heâll be okayâ if he donât get a fever.â
âWell, he definitely lacks a certain charm.â
âDonât you ever leave love aside, [Name], itâs all we got.â
âI possess things you will never understand.â
âEvery plan is a good plan if we execute it properly.â
âIâm just trying to stay real about all this.â
âThat is one of the most beautiful acts I ever saw.â
âAn insect bit you or something? âCause you gone, friend.â
âI will do whatever it takes for us to survive.â
âI still ainât sure what youâre saying, [Name].â
âThis feller is really beginning to try my patience.â
âNobody knows who you areâ not even your goddamn father.â
:Weâll find each other eventually. We always do.â
âMy fair heart jumps for joy when I set eyes on you, [Name].â
âYou can see why he has such a high opinion of himself.â
âIâll wipe that goddamn smirk clean off your face.â
âYou couldâve cleaned yourself up a bit.â
âI didnât realize I was here to impress anyone.â
âStrangeness, I can handleâ Itâs the normal business of life I canât seem to get a grip on.â
âYouâre an idiot, but youâll always be my friend.â
âWell, of course Iâm your friend, butâŚyou ainât always fair with me.â
âIf I was fair with you and a good person, Iâd have had you hanged a long time ago.â
âSo, shut up, and act like a gentleman⌠or at least try to for once in your brainless life.â
âItâs sort of beautiful, in a gaudy, and tasteless wayâŚâ
âQuite ridiculous, but somehow very amusing.â
âYou can see why folks donât wanna come around hereâ Ainât exactly a welcoming place.â
âI donât owe you nothing!â
âI loved you, you goddamn bastard!â
"She knew the rules, [Name]â What the hell is wrong with you?â
âYou think I wanted to shoot her?!â
âI donât know anymore⌠Iâm not sure if I even care.â
âWell, the best thing is rest and getting somewhere warm and dry, and taking it easy.â
âWe canât change whatâs done; we can only move on.â
âHe didnât have a choice, He was good and he did good.â
âI understand if you donât wanna help me, but⌠but⌠I think of you often.â
âHeâs quite the character; I think youâll like him.â
âYâknow⌠Iâm impressed. Youâve really stepped things up, ainât you?â
âHey, we didnât know if you was even coming back.â
âYou have a real habit of stating the obvious, [Name].â
âWhat the hell is wrong with you? I only left you an hour ago. You canât stay out of trouble for one goddamn hour?â
âYou got that poor bastard killed for his troublesâ I kind of liked him!â
âInsist all you like; ainât happening!â
âWell, I ainât the crying sort, but, Iâm real grateful!â
âThis better not be no stupid revenge mission, [Name].â
âItâs just a simple social call.â
âSo, what are we gonna say to him, that needs to be said?â
âThis ainât making a lot of sense, [Name].â
âBusiness doesnât give two figs about feelings, sir. Not two figs.â
âYour impudence will be our undoing, sir.â
âDonât play dumb and superior at the same time, [Name].â
âFeels like the whole worldâs closing in on us.â
âDo you know who youâre talking to?â
âI think itâs a real bad idea.â
âSee, Iâm starting to think that youâve gone soft, [Name].â
âSo I was thinking, you go play dead, and Iâll take care of âem.â
âYou play dead and Iâll cover you.â
âNice shooting back there!â
âI could use a drink after that.â
âListen⌠I know we ainât always seen eye to eye, andâŚyou find me irritating and a threatâŚand I like to annoy youâŚbut right now I need better from you, [Name].â
âI ainât the bad guy you think I am, [Name].â
âThereâs a big picture here, [Name].â
âI feel like you should take your woman and child and get lost.â
âitâs that orâŚwell, I donât see no way outta this.â
âWhen the time comes, you gotta run and donât look back.â
âThat just ainât how I wanna die.â
âYou rally think thatâll draw attention away from us?â
âYâknow, all that ever mattered to me was loyalty. It was all I knewâ It was all I ever believed in.â
âIâm seeing things a lot more clearly now.â
âI wish things were different⌠But it werenât us who changed.â
âYou donât seem yourself somehowâŚâ
âSurely this can be done without killing anyone?â
âWe shoot fellers as need shooting, we save fellers as need saving, feed them as need feeding.â
âItâs been quite a while since we helped anyone, but ourselves, and even you know that.â
âI have a plan, you just have to trust me.â
âThis is exactly the distraction we need.â
âHey. Heyâ you know I wasnât gonna let it come to that.â
âI guess I donât know what I know no more.â
âMay God, in his infinite wisdom, have mercy upon your soul.â
âMy whole life, I have tried to fight change.â
âYâknow, you and me⌠Weâre more ghosts than people.â
âI miss him every day⌠every moment.â
âThey turned me into a monster.â
âYouâre the best man Iâve known.â
âI think I need to be alone for a bit.â
âSometimes the correct path, the bravest pathâŚis the least obvious, and also the gentlest.â
âMy whole life I have tried to bring peace.â
We can talk if you want to, but donât feel like you have to.â
âI should not have let you do this for me.â
âI hope you can find peace within yourself.â
âHeâs a man who, not so long ago, I would have found weak and pathetic. Now I see as wise and thoughtful, and sensible.â
âWe must act with due caution.â
âA failed man is often the most dangerous.â
âHey, show some goddamn respect!â
âYouâll know when I ainât showing respect.â
âI had a plan⌠I still have a plan!â
âI am tired of this constant dissent, long tired of it.â
âIâm gonna try and save him.â
âYouâre quite the hero, ainât you?â
âCome on⌠Donât doubt me no more.â
âYou saved my life more than once⌠To give mine for yoursâŚitâs as it should be.â
âEverything is coming together exactly as I planned.â
âIâm afraid I have to insist.â
âOf course, pal⌠Whatever you think is best.â
âHe insists upon it⌠InsistsâŚâ
âDonât talk to me you son of a bitch.â
âDo it my way, honey. Itâs for the best.â
âIâm gonna get you outta this bullshit if itâs the last goddamn thing I do.â
âIt would mean a lot to me⌠PleaseâŚâ
âYou donât know how much Iâve longed to do this.â
âAll there isâ winningâŚand losingâŚâ
âIn the end, despite my best efforts to the contrary, it turns out Iâve won.â
âI gave you all I had⌠I did.â
âI tried in the end⌠I did.â
âI ainât too proud to do nothing.â
âI love you. Donât you forget thatâ not ever now.â
âYou stop acting like a goddamn storybook hero, will you?â
âI guess I was dreaming a little. At least give me that.â
âI did what I had to do to protect you.â
âI thought you was dead.â
âYou know, speaking in monosyllables donât make you seem interesting, it makes you seem stupid.â
âI never thought she was a smart woman, but this makes me think maybe I was wrong.â
âNo, youâre stuck with me; seems Iâm stuck with you.â
âLetâs just hope things donât turn out like last time.â
âNow, you used to be decent company, but now, youâre worse than a snake with a toothache.â
âGet some self-respect you miserable sack of shit.â
âI just need a bit of peace and quiet from your incessant yapping.â
âThatâs kindâ unlikely to be taken up, but kind.â
âYou always did have that fine way with words.â
âDo you wish I was more like you?â
âThereâs a lot of ugly in this world, but there sure as hell is a lot of beauty.â
âAinât you just the leading authority on everything?â
âSometimes, you just donât know how things are gonna turn out.â
âI think Iâm gonna ask her to, uh, marry me.â
âI never took you for a romantic.â
âItâs been ages since we spent any time together.â
âI hate to break it to you, but you ainât that much to look at.â
âWhy you being so courteous?â
âYouâre acting kindaâŚfunny.â
âYou know, youâre not very nice to me.â
âOh, Iâm nicer than you deserve.â
âWhatâre you doing with that arm?â
âI thought you might be cold.â
âYouâre acting real strangeâŚâ
âShut up, you silly man, and kiss me!â
âYouâre bleeding pretty bad.â
âI donât like itâŚI love it. Itâs home.â
