Quotes

A good Christian does not flinch with difficulty.
- Zachariah Coop
He doesn't court them by drinking either.
- Holly Smith
Are you really a trickster?
- Jason Smith
Oh, I think most people are at a certain level. But remember this: you can't trick a man unless he's aiming to trick you.
- Zachariah Coop
How come?
- Jason Smith
Well, because people in general like the idea of getting something for nothing. And the trickster affords him that opportunity.
- Zachariah Coop
I'm going to give up gambling until I get you there.
- Zachariah Coop
I don't believe it.
- Holly Smith
Well, I'd be willing to bet ya.
- Zachariah Coop
How come you can speak Indian?
- Jason Smith
Well, my mother was the daughter of a Cherokee chief.
- Zachariah Coop
Really?
- Jason Smith
Yeah.
- Zachariah Coop
What was she like?
- Jason Smith
I don't really remember because she died two years before I was born.
- Zachariah Coop
