Lon McCallister Quotes:

Ted Knowles, Jockey: Say, I think your niece is swell.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: Well, you can't start an argument with me that way, me boy.

Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: And if it shouldn't be okay by me, I'm thinking you'd start an argument.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: Well, I thought maybe you had it in for jocks, too. Darned if I don't think I'd stand a better chance with her if I were a stable boy. She's a mystery, that Margaret is. You know, Mr. O'Hara, maybe you could put in a good word for me.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: Well, now, being the kind of man you are, Ted, I've an idea you can solve that mystery without my help. However, I might be willing to put in a word here and there if you do me a bit of a favor in return.

Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: I think you're both mistaken.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: Well, if you're so sure, why don't you buy him yourself?
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: No, no. So long as I train for other people, I'll never race one of me own. I might be tempted to give him special consideration.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: I feel the same way myself.
