Lucy Overmire : It's so peaceful here.
George Camrose : The illusion of peace is upon us.
Lucy Overmire : You sound rather jaded.
George Camrose : Oh, these cabin raisers jade me. People planting themselves in one rough spot for the rest of their lives. I'm more for mansions and plush furniture.

Logan Stuart : George, when is this girl going to marry you?
George Camrose : I doubt if she knows hereself, Logan. When are you taking me, Lucy?
Lucy Overmire : George, do you like poetry?
George Camrose : Must I like poetry to be your husband?
Lucy Overmire : We'll be married when the leaves fall.
George Camrose : You see, Logan, she strings me up and lets me swing. You mean the maple leaves that fall early, or the pine needles that never fall at all?

Ben Dance : If you want to catch a man, you got to work at it.
Lucy Overmire : I want no man I have to catch.
Ben Dance : Why sure, you catch him and he catches you. A man always figures that he does the catching. The truth is, it's the woman that brings him up on the rope... and him not quite knowing it.
