"We've captured fifty pieces of artillery and ten thousand prisoners!" "Then what'ell's the use er hurryin' us on er empty stomach but we're a-comin', honey we're a-comin'!"

Dat's why I taken my feet in my hand an' come hurryin' back yere f'um dat grocery sto' where I'd done went to git a bottle of lemon extractors. I seen yore sister settin' in dat Mistah B.

"We are strangers, sight-seein', got no other business on earth, least of all any to take us up to this old San Miguel Church for unholy purposes. 'Course if we see a pretty little dark-eyed, golden-haired lassie anywhere, we'll just make a diagram of the spot she's stand'n' on, for future reference.
