Quotes 

• Rowdy Yates : [Ellie and Rowdy are listening to the telegraph pole]  Talkin' wires, they call them. Listen, you can hear 'em again. Hear the dot dashes.

  Ellie Kurtz : Wonder what they say.

  Rowdy Yates : Yeah, probably takin' about some General's bunions, I suppose.

• Ellie Kurtz : We're just lucky, I guess.

  Hap Johnson : How's that?

  Ellie Kurtz : Well, we haven't come across any dishonest men, like I thought you was when I first saw you. But you're nice, almost as nice as Rowdy.

  [But Hap is not] 

• Hap Johnson : O, that Rowdy fella was surely right about you.

  Ellie Kurtz : What'd he say?

  Hap Johnson : Why, just that you were the prettiest thing west of New York.

  Ellie Kurtz : Honest?

  Hap Johnson : You betcha. And I'd put it a little further my own self. Maybe even Paris or France or somewhere's like that.

• Hap Johnson : Dreaming's all right. Just so's you don't use it to run away with. You always got to remember what's real. And what's important. Why, you got to appreciate what you got.

  Ellie Kurtz : What I got?

  Hap Johnson : Why, you got life. Ain't no use to be worrying about dying. Not now, not never. There's time enough for that when it happens.
