Nancy Gates: Cassie Webster

Quotes 

• Cassie Webster : Tell me, did you ever know that a child's heart could break over a little ragdoll? Or that a young girl could cry all through the night just because she didn't have a pink ribbon to wear in her hair? Or that a woman could live in the same house with a man for six years, six long years and still be lonely?

• Rowdy Yates : You know, I had a kinda step-mother once. She never beat me or anything like that. She never said two decent words to me in the whole time we were around each other. Well, she finally took fever and passed away. I tried to feel sad about it but it was impossible. So I just ended up feeling.

  Cassie Webster : Relieved?

  Rowdy Yates : Yeah. I guess that's it.

• Rowdy Yates : When people get their feeling going, they don't often think straight.

  Cassie Webster : I know.

  [She stretches up for a kiss] 

  Rowdy Yates : Wow, how about that!

  Cassie Webster : You complaining?

  Rowdy Yates : No, no. It just wasn't long enough, that's all.
