Robert Redford Quotes:
Deputy Sheriff Christopher 'Coop' Cooper: If he tried, you'd be dead.
Wade Lewis: For we wrestle not with flesh and blood, but against powers of this world. But... but don't worry, here we meet, in this castle of lost souls. In the land of the black Swan, the Prince of Darkness. Welcome little captive, to the waterfall of sweet dreams. Malora says it washes all our cares away, but I... I need stronger stuff.
Judge Benby: I think you send that man home, Sheriff.
Deputy Sheriff Christopher 'Coop' Cooper: You're not mayor yet, Judge. You're just runnin' - the same as Willie.
