Cushing Quotes:

  • Cable Hogue: I always thought you bankers stole for the rich. I didn't know you'd talk to shirttail trash like me.

    Cushing: We don't steal.

    Cable Hogue: Well, lend, borrow, invest and mortgage and repossess. What the hell else do you call it?

  • Cable Hogue: Those silly jackasses over there can laugh at me all they want, but they're in a spot of trouble. Now wouldn't you think a stage line could see that? In all the long, wrought out, back-breakin', kidney-shakin', bladder-bustin' miles from here to Lizard, there's not one spot of wet relief for man or beast! Now, if I could bring comfort to the passengers, rest to the teams, food and drink to the drivers, and water to all, well what would be wrong with that? Now listen, there's a preacher out at my diggings. He'll tell you. And you wouldn't doubt a man of the gospel, would you?

    Cushing: Of course! That's the first man I'd doubt.
