John Derek Quotes:
Sheriff of Buckhorn:
All right, Mitchell, your year's up.
Brock Mitchell: Didn't seem like more than ten!
Sheriff of Buckhorn: You're lucky it wasn't the rope.
Brock Mitchell: Looks like the citizens out there still have ideas.
Van Steeden: I think Tracy and I see even clearer than you what this thing means. It isn't just saving the land, it isn't just foreclosing on a piece of property - it's foreclosing on a man's life.
Brock Mitchell: It isn't easy to join the human race again once you've been drummed out, but we'll try.
Lilia: [singing] Death cometh to me, cometh to set me free. Death cometh to me.
Joshua: No, Lilia, death will not come to you.
Lilia: Joshua! You risk your life in coming here. You are first-born.
Joshua: So are you. I have brought lamb's blood to mark the door posts and lintels, so that the shadow of death will pass you by.
Lilia: It is enough that you thought of me, Joshua. I am outcast among our people. Do not save me from death, Joshua, save me from life!
Joshua: Tomorrow will bring a new world for us, Lilia!
