"Where is all the no-compromise talk I've heard at various times, and the high ideals, and the loyalty to the Service at any cost, and all the rest of it? You're not consistent." Amy eyed him a little disdainfully. "You've got to save that poor old man," she stated.
"You're right," Patrick said. "You could put it under the bed with a garbage bag around it just to hide it. Then we could figure out how to move it later, bring it up to my house or take it to the dump." "I don't know about the dump," Patrick said. "It would be like throwing her away." "No dump," Willow said. "The garbage bag is a good idea. That's what I'll do. So . . . " He stood.

Because the nurse who takes my place doesn't cost near so much as that. All the same, as I say, I don't half like it. You can preach the new stuff till you're black in the face, but there's no job for a woman like taking care of her own children."

"You're a four-flush sheriff. I'll gamble you elected yourself. I know your kind, Matthews. And I'll gamble some more that you don't last long in Marco."
"You're the first who wear that uniform who haven't gone out of their way to inconvenience me, and all other French women." "Come, come," said Hal. "I'm afraid you are too hard on us."
