Quotes 

• Jonathan Damon : When men work as hard as these men work, I try to see it that they don't turn into subhuman wrecks. I told them to take the day off and enjoy themselves.

  Goodgate : What about the guards? The men I advanced the money for? Where are they?

  Jonathan Damon : The railway guards. Aw, they're with the men. They gone swimming. That promotes brotherhood.

  Goodgate : Then everything's all right?

  Jonathan Damon : Perfect. Perfect. Best medicine in the world is a little laughter in the sunshine.

• Jonathan Damon : Goldie, I asked these men to bed down on our land, let us throw a little party for 'em.

  Goldie Rogers : And?

  Goldie Rogers : Oohhh. Please.

  Gil Favor : Well, all right. They really can be a pretty rank bunch. You're sure you can handle them?

  Jonathan Damon : Well, I can sure try.
