Quotes
-
Tom Sawyer : [Tom and Sam have been fighting in the mud, both claiming that they were Huck's best friend] Ah, heck! Fighting like this is dumb. Huck was a prince... a king! He could'a had two best friends. He could'a had a dozen.
Sam Davis : Tom, we can't go to school lookin' like this.
[picks up his tomahawk from the ground]
Tom Sawyer : Gee, you're right! We'd get a good hiding.
Sam Davis : What are we gonna do? We haven't time to go home and get cleaned up.
Tom Sawyer : I know what we're gonna do: we're gonna pay one last tribute to Huckleberry Finn.
[starts walking in the other direction]
Sam Davis : We are?
Tom Sawyer : Sure. We're gonna do what he would've done on a hot day like this. In honor of his memory, instead'a goin' to school, we're gonna go to the swimmin' hole.
Sam Davis : You mean play hooky?
Tom Sawyer : Well sure, that what he would'a wanted us to do.

Tom Sawyer : [Sam Davis pretends to attack Tom Sawyer with a tomahawk on the way] Dang you, Sam Davis! That's a fool thing to do! What's the matter with you, anyways?
Sam Davis : I'm an Indian, you're a brave cavalry officer. Yesterday you said I supposed to try and scalp you on the way to school today.
Tom Sawyer : Well, that's yesterday. Things are different today. It's not every day you lose a friend like Huck.
Sam Davis : I keep forgetting it happened. It don't seem possible.
Tom Sawyer : Yeah, I've been walking and thinking about it. Life just don't seem worth living any more. It's like all the fun's gone out of it, along with him.
Sam Davis : I think his Pap killed him, that's what I think.
Tom Sawyer : Judge Thatcher said it could be robbers. But whoever it is, I'm gonna avenge Huck, just like it is in the books, and that's a sacred promise!
