Joseph Golland: Bert

Quotes 

• Cully : Bert?

  Bert : Yeah?

  Cully : [gazing skyward through blind eyes]  Does that big old cedar still have an eagle's nest on top?

  Bert : Yep, she's still there, Cully.

  Cully : What about the mountains?

  Bert : Yeah?

  Cully : Is there still snow on 'em?

  Bert : The mountains are still there. The snow's gone.

  Cully : I guess it's still as beautiful as it ever was.

  Bert : Yep.

  Cully : I wish we still owned it, Bert.

  Bert : Aw, it don't make much difference who owns the land, Cully. It's all on loan from the good Lord anyway, rich or poor.
