Quotes of Movie: "Maverick" [1957]
|
Did your Pappy have something funny to say about money? Bret: No, he spoke very highly of it. I admit I'm not too good with a gun, but I like to think the next man is worse. As my old pappy used to say, work is fine for killin' time, but it's a shaky way to make a living. As my old pappy used to say, a man does what he has to do - if he can't get out of it. | |

Waco, I've never seen a man do so many things wrong. Have you ever been in a gulf hurricane? Waco Williams: Nope. Bret: Well, it's the big pine trees and the thick oak trees that get uprooted first. The palm trees are smart - they give with the wind. Waco Williams: That sounds like pretty good advice for trees. Bret: They live a long time. My Pappy always said, "A coward dies a thousand deaths, a hero dies but one." A thousand to one is pretty good odds. As my old pappy used to say, if at first you don't succeed, try something else. A man does what he has to do - if he can't get out of it. Never cry over spilt milk. It could've been whiskey. As my old pappy used to say, "Son, stay clear of weddings because one of them is liable to be your own." Son, hard work never hurt anyone - who didn't do it. As my old pappy used to say, it would be a pitiful thing if you had to work for a living. Son, use your wits; the Good Lord didn't give you brains. Jed, only one man in a hundred plays poker by the odds. Luck's only important when you sit down with men who play as tight as you do. When I find that out I quit. It's *gambling*. Cole, as my old pappy always taught me, the only time you ever quit when you're winnin' is after you've won it all. As my pappy used to say, "Son, the best time to get lucky is when the other man's dealin'." Son, as my old pappy used to say, if you're ever served a rare steak that is intended for someone else, don't bother with ethical details - eat as much as you can before the mistake is discovered. As my old pappy used to say, a fox isn't sly; he just can't think any slower. | |
