"Now, I know what you thinking. 'This family is from the ghetto. How they gonna pay old me?' Well, don't you worry about that. We're not here to rob ya. We here to make you rich."

"You just scared. Scared you will fail. Scared that the world will look at you and see another dumb nigga. And you know what? You think they might be right. I have never, never thought that about you."

"Tony Goldwyn as Paul Cohen"

"The most strongest, the most powerful, the most dangerous creature on this whole earth is a woman who knows how to think. Ain't nothing she can't do."

"Open stance!"

"When I was a little boy, I grew up in Shreveport. One day, my father took me to town. He give me this money to pay this White man for something. Back in them days, Black folks weren't allowed to touch White peoples. So I went to give the man this money, and I accidently touched his hand. And he start beating on me. He knocked me down, his friends come over, they all start stomping on me and beating on me. And I look up and I see my father in the crowd, and he took off running. Left me there with these grown men beating on me. Now, I haven't been no great daddy... but I've never done nothing but try to protect you. This next step you about to take, it would... It would be hard for anybody. But for you, you not gonna just be representing you, you gonna be representing every little Black girl on Earth. And you gonna be the one gotta go through that gate. And I just never wanted you to look up... and see your daddy running away."

"Thing about breaking a horse is don't run him out of time, 'cause if you're gonna just keep on running your horse, you're gonna break his spirit. Anything that runs wild got something bad in him. You want to leave some of that in there, 'cause they need it to survive out here."

"Remember, you gotta always protect yourself. Remember if somebody small, your size, you can probably beat 'em up or whatever, but if it's somebody bigger than you, then I don't know what you're gonna do, you'd better run."

"Where we live, the Plains, the Badlands, things usually look the same. People are always related. They got the same old worries all the time. It gets really hot sometimes. You get tired of it, but... there's just things you always gotta do. [...] It's always a hard place to leave. 'Cause that's all you got growing up. My sister Jashaun, she's got a thing about this place. She sees things I don't. She's a good one. Whenever the storms are comin', the old timers would teach us to watch the cloud. And when the wind is too strong, we all know to lean into it so it don't blow us away."

"A tree was a friend if you let it alone. But the second the blade bit in, you had yourself a war and the tree was a killer."

"That's where all those myths come from, you know? All those flood stories. All those different religions all over the world. It's just the same story, different slants."

"Not too many folks I cross paths with more than once in this life. I see it is a blessing when they're brought back around."

"You just go through what you go through."

"My family is everywhere there's a smiling face. Never been somewhere I didn't have some family there."

"Seeing Kate again felt as real as anything else in his life, even as he wondered if it really happened to him. He spent many days and evenings wandering the forests and fields of the region, looking for any sign of her. Though he found none, he spent the rest of his days waiting, so he would be there if she ever came back."

"When Robert Grainier died in his sleep sometime in November of 1968, his life ended as quietly as it had begun. He'd never purchased a firearm or spoken into a telephone. He had no idea who his parents might have been, and he left no heirs behind him. But on that spring day, as he misplaced all sense of up and down, he felt, at last, connected to it all."

"Newness of the experience."

"The world is intricately stitched together, boys. Every thread we pull, we will not know how it affects the design of things."

"In the forest, every least thing's important. It's all threaded together. So you can't tell where one thing ends and another begins. If you really look at it, the little insects you can't even see, they play a role as vital as the river. The dead tree is as important as the living one. There must be something for us to learn from that."

"There were once passageways to the old world; strange trails, hidden paths. You'd turn a corner and suddenly find yourself face-to-face with the great mystery, the foundation of all things. And even though that old world is gone now, even though it's been rolled up like a scroll and put somewhere, you can still feel the echo of it."
