I beat you forever.

Johnny: I'm ready for your worst.

Senator Roark: Boy, you don't even want to dream about my worst.

Senator Roark: Power don't come from a badge or a gun. Power comes from lying. Lying big, and gettin' the whole damn world to play along with you. Once you got everybody agreeing with what they know in their hearts ain't true, you've got 'em by the balls.

Senator Roark: Tell anybody the truth and they're dead!
