Muted tones, isn't that what you said, huh? Huh? I can't hear you. Wait, wait a minute. There it is. Blended in, at a subsonic level, like some kind of mantra: "Pain, pain, pain."

Are the fires of hell aglowing? Is the grizzly reaper mowing?

The danger must be growing for the rowers keep on rowing and they're certainly not showing any signs that they are slowing!!!"

We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.

Professor Keating (Robin Williams) in Dead Poet's Society

Rocky Dennis: [Reciting a poem he wrote] These things are good: ice cream and cake, a ride on a harley, seeing monkeys in the trees, the rain on my tongue, and the sun shining on my face. These things are a drag: dust in my hair, holes in my shoes, no money in my pocket, and the sun shining on my face.

No Country for Old Men


(Chigurh stands at the counter across from the elderly proprietor. Holds up a bag of cashews.)

Chigurh: How much?

Proprietor: Sixty-nine cent.

Chigurh: And the gas.

Proprietor: Y' all gettin' any rain up your way?

Chigurh: What way would that be?

Proprietor: I seen you was from Dallas.

(Chigurh tears open the bag of cashews and pours a few into his hand.)

Chigurh: What business is it of yours. Where I'm from. Friend-o?

Proprietor: I didn't mean nothin' by it.

Chigurh: Didn't mean nothin'.

Proprietor: I was just passin' the time. If you don't wanna accept that, I don't know what else I can do for you.

(Chigurh stands chewing cashews, staring while the old man works the register and puts change on the counter.)

Proprietor: Will there be something else?

Chigurh: I don't know. Will there?

(The proprietor turns and coughs. Chigurh stares.)

Proprietor: Is somethin' wrong?

Chigurh: With what?

Proprietor: With anything?

Chigurh: Is that what you're asking me? Is there something wrong with anything?

(The proprietor looks at him, uncomfortable, looks away. )

Proprietor: Will there be anything else?

Chigurh: You already asked me that.

Proprietor: Well... I need to see about closin'.

Chigurh: See about closing.

Proprietor: Yessir.

Chigurh: What time do you close?

Proprietor: Now. We close now.

Chigurh: Now is not a time. What time do you close?

Proprietor: Generally around dark.

(Chigurh stares, slowly chewing.)

Chigurh: You don’t know what you’re talking about, do you?

Proprietor: Sir?

Chigurh: I said. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

(Chigurh chews.)

Chigurh: What time do you go to bed?

Proprietor: Sir?

Chigurh: You’re a bit deaf, aren’t you. I said what time do you go to bed?

Proprietor: Oh. Somewhere around nine thirty, I’d say, I’d say around nine thirty.

Chigurh: I could come back then.

Proprietor: Why would you be coming back. We’d be closed.

Chigurh: You've lived here all your life?

Proprietor: This was my wife's ******'s place. Originally.

Chigurh: You married into it.

Proprietor: We lived on Temple Texas for many years. Raised a ****** there. In Temple. We come out here about four years ago.

Chigurh: You married into it.

Proprietor: If that's the way you wanna put it.

Chigurh: I don't have some way to put it. That's the way it is.

Chigurh: What's the most you ever lost on a coin toss?

Proprietor: Sir?

Chigurh: The most. You ever lost. On a coin toss.

Proprietor: I don't know. I couldn't say.

(Chigurh tosses a quarter. He slaps it onto the counter but keeps it covered. )

Chigurh: Call it.

Proprietor: Call it?

Chigurh: Yes.

Proprietor: For what?

Chigurh: Just call it.

Proprietor: Well, we need to know what we're calling it for here.

Chigurh: You need to call it. I can't call it for you. It wouldn't be fair.

Proprietor: I didn't put nothin' up.

Chigurh: Yes, you did. You've been putting it up your whole life you just didn't know it. You know what date is on this coin?

Proprietor: No.

Chigurh: 1958. It's been traveling twenty-two years to get here. And now it's here. And it's either heads or tails. And you have to say. Call it.

Proprietor: Look, I need to know what I stand to win.

Chigurh: Everything.

Proprietor: How's that?

Chigurh: You stand to win everything. Call it.

Proprietor: All right. Heads then..

(Chigurh takes his hand away from the coin and looks at it. )

Chigurh: Well done.

(Chigurth hands it across the counter.)

Chigurh: Don't put it in your pocket, sir. Don't put it in your pocket. It's your lucky quarter.

Proprietor: Where do you want me to put it?

Chigurh: Anywhere not in your pocket. Where it'll get mixed in with the others and become just a coin. Which it is.

(Chigurh turns and goes.)
