Quotes

Written on the Wind

Edit
  • Marylee Hadley: I'm allergic to politeness.
  • Marylee Hadley: That was no lady. That was your wife.
  • Kyle Hadley: Where are they going?
  • Marylee Hadley: I don't know. Where would you take your best friends wife?
  • Kyle Hadley: You're a real sweet kid.
  • Marylee Hadley: Now, be nice to me brother. One morning, we'll wake up and be all alone together.
  • Kyle Hadley: You're a filthy liar.
  • Marylee Hadley: I'm filthy - period!
  • Marylee Hadley: But you don't have to take my word for anything. Just try keeping your head clear and your eyes open.
  • Kyle Hadley: Why should you care? You've never cared about me.
  • Marylee Hadley: ...Or your wife.
  • Kyle Hadley: Why are you putting your two cents in?
  • Marylee Hadley: Only because of Mitch. Because I've never had him. And your wife has.
  • [Kyle slaps her]
  • Kyle Hadley: To beauty, to truth which is anything but beautiful.
  • Kyle Hadley: I'll kill him!
  • Marylee Hadley: A whiskey bottle's about all you'd kill.
  • Mitch Wayne: Are you looking for laughs? Or are you soul-searching?
  • Jasper Hadley: Welcome to Hadley. The town and the family.
  • Hoak Wayne: What was the matter with you today, son? You were supposed to be hunting, not brooding.
  • Mitch Wayne: I'm sorry, dad.
  • Hoak Wayne: Anything we can talk about?
  • Mitch Wayne: Did you ever hear of Iran?
  • Hoak Wayne: Africa? Asia? Asia I guess. What about it?
  • Mitch Wayne: I'm thinking of going there.
  • Hoak Wayne: For Hadley, son?
  • Mitch Wayne: No. Trans American Oil.
  • Hoak Wayne: Got a bellyfull of the Hadleys? I sometimes wonder if I did right by you, putting you with Jasper and his kids. Meant it all for the best, wanted you to have the chance I had and didn't take.
  • Mitch Wayne: I better level with you, dad, about why I'm leaving. I'm in love with a woman that happens to be Kyle's wife.
  • Hoak Wayne: Is she in love with you?
  • Mitch Wayne: No. Strictly one-sided.
  • Kyle Hadley: Kyle, what's the matter? Come on, dance with me.
  • Kyle Hadley: Can't. Somebody just stole my magic dancing slippers
