Gerald O'Hara:
Do you mean to tell me, Katie Scarlett O'Hara, that Tara, that land doesn't mean anything to you? Why, land is the only thing in the world worth workin' for, worth fightin' for, worth dyin' for, because it's the only thing that lasts.

It will come to you, this love of the land. There's no gettin' away from it if you're Irish.

Tom Blue: I've never seen you like this before Jamie. Hanging your head like a pelican over a wench -- and if you ask me, a flousy wench! No more feelin' than a load of clams. If you kick her in the heart, she'll break your leg. Ah Jamie -- why? There's hundreds of wenches prettier than her -- all ready to leap into your arms if you give 'em a whistle.
