Ian Tracey: Huckleberry Finn

Quotes 

• Huckleberry Finn : Ah, heck, before I got rich and the widow was civilizin' me all the time, you were just about the only grown up who didn't turn your nose up on me.

  Jim : Yeah, that's 'cause I knows enough to know I don't know enough to judge anybody.

• Huckleberry Finn : Heck, Jim, I can't be a criminal, I'm dead, remember?

  Jim : Now that don't make no nevermind. Now you know what's right for white folks and what's wrong. You was brought up to turn me in, now just, just go and on and tell 'em where I am. You'll get the reward!

  Huckleberry Finn : But Jim, don't you see, I can't turn anybody in without lettin' everybody see I'm still alive.

  Jim : Yeah... . that's so... But in your heart you'll still be a criminal and you'll know it.

  Huckleberry Finn : Ah, shucks, that don't make no difference. Tom Sawyer and me figured on bein' highwaymen when we grow up, anyway.

• Huckleberry Finn : [narrating]  I tell ya, there's no better way to sleep than the way we was meant to: out in the woods and free. Except the body gets powerful hungry, and I didn't dare light a fire in the daytime. The smoke might be seen on the Missouri shore.
