    C.P. Ballinger, Banker:
    Forty-six years ago, I started lending money in Larry Bingham's back room. My first customer was a drover named Penny. He wanted two dollars on a Brindle cow at six percent interest. He said she gave six quarts of milk a day. You know what I made him do? I made him move that cow into my back yard for a whole week. And I watched him milk her every day. Sure enough, she gave an average of six and a half quarts a day, so I gave him the money at six and half percent interest. Not only that, I kept the 60 pounds of manure she left behind. When you show me collateral, madam, you better make sure it's good collateral. For forty-six years, I've been lending money on good, old-fashioned principles. I stand here now to tell you one and all that I've never been offered a better piece of collateral that I hold in my hand now!

  • Benson Tropp:
    Any man who gets himself married is automatically stupid.

  • Henry Drummond:
    Let's play cards.

  • Harry Tate:
    [referring to Tropp] Don't he give a damn what people think, him ridin' around the country in a hearse?



    Doc Joseph Scully:
    If you're the richest undertaker in Texas, you're entitled to a fancy rig, but if you spend your days and nights trying to keep people alive, you ride around in the likes of this.


    [he shakes the reins of his carriage]



    Doc Joseph Scully:
    Giddy-up!
