• Jeb : [Narrating]  One day I rode up in the butte country...

  [Approaching the burned out shell of a cabin] 

  Jeb : Came straight to this place just like I'd known the way. There was something in my life that ruined that house. That house was myself.

  [Entering the charred remains] 

  Jeb : I'd seen it a million times before... the fireplace... the trap door...

  [Walking outside again] 

  Jeb : Out back there was some cattle bones. All of a sudden I couldn't breathe, and then as I walked around the side, I came upon some unmarked graves. If that house was me, what part of me was buried in those graves?

• Jeb : [to Thor]  There was a black dog riding my back and yours.
