(If you haven’t seen the movie or read the book, the setting is a time of young men, when you could still be recognized as an American):

“You're just a deadhead. Just tell me one thing. What the hell would we want you with us for?” — Lacey Rawlins

”Cause I'm an American.” — Jimmy Blevins, All The Pretty Horses

"They're all Boy Scouts, these Americans." -Ferraro

The quotation is from memory.

Coincidentally, this film is also set in Mexico.

Watch Vincent Price steal the show.

“I guess the country lasts forever, people ain't but for a little while.”— John Grady Cole, All The Pretty Horses

"It just so happens we be Texicans. Texican is nothing but a human man way out on a limb. This year and next, and maybe for a hundred more. But I don't think it'll be forever. Some day this country's gonna be a fine, good place to be. Maybe it needs our bones in the ground before that time can come." -Mrs. Jorgensen

"The f....n' war will be over by the time we get out there, won't it, Private .... ?"

I BET, in the days of preparing for Vietnam, Gulf War 2 & 3, this was a standard line of Drill Instructors/Training Instructors, right?

You want to hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I’m an easy target. Yeah, you’re right, I talk too much. I also listen too much. I could be a cold-hearted cynic like you but I don’t like to hurt people’s feelings. Well, you think what you want about me but I’m not changing. I like me, my wife likes me, my customers like me because I’m the real article. What you see is what you get.
