Dakin Matthews: Col. Stonehill

Quotes 

• Col. Stonehill : I do not entertain hypotheticals. The world as it is is vexing enough.

• Mattie Ross : Well I need a pony, and I'll pay you ten dollars for one of them.

  Col. Stonehill : No, that's a lot price, no no... wait a minute... are we trading again?

• Mattie Ross : [Discussing the price of cotton]  We got most of our cotton in early. We got 12 and a half cents a pound in Little Rock.

  Col. Stonehill : Then I suggest you take the rest of your crop to Little Rock to sell.

  Mattie Ross : This being closer, I though I might check on the price in Ft. Smith while I was here.

  Col. Stonehill : Did you come all this way to inform me of the price of cotton in Little Rock?
