Quotes 

• Flint McCullough : I was at Shiloh, Mrs Palmer.

  Nancy Palmer : Were you, Mr McCullough? He died there.

  Flint McCullough : I know. He was very dearly loved if that's of any comfort to you. Finding out you're his daughter brings back a lot of memories.

  Dan Palmer : Happy ones, Mr McCullough?

  Flint McCullough : Well, I can only speak for myself. We can all go on remembering how it was, even how it might have been. But we can't go on living it, being its prisoner.

  Will Davidson : Well, I see it different. I don't care who knows it. The inside of me is nothing but hate.

  Flint McCullough : Well, we went on hating for five long years. As I see it, it didn't do any of us any good.

• Nancy Palmer : Everyone went away. The little girl's father, and her brothers, all her kin.

  Freddie : Brothers? You didn't say about brothers.

  Nancy Palmer : She had three.

  Will Davidson : Yeah, they went away. Never came back. Like many people.

  Freddie : They was Rebs, easn't they?

  Nancy Palmer : Yes, General Purvis Yates and his three sons were Rebs.

  Flint McCullough : General Yates? He was a real patriot.

  Flint McCullough : History will prove that, Mr Davidson. Not just those of us who were there.

• MacGregor : Stealing money I can understand. But stealing water that's precious to us. There's no crime lower.

  Will Davidson : She's from my part of the country. But is she was here, I'd put a bullet right through her.
