Marie-Hélène de Boismonfrais: May God preserve us from that!

George A. Custer: God and the Seventh Cavalry!

George A. Custer: Why did you abandon your houses?

Sitting Bull: Because you destroyed them. Sometimes there were still people inside them.

George A. Custer: [as his command is being wiped out] Damned Indians! They don't know how to fight wars!
