Lon McCallister Quotes:

Ted Knowles, Jockey: Margaret.
Margaret O'Hara: Was ever a woman so humiliated, to have her man stolen by a horse?
Ted Knowles, Jockey: You don't really mean that it's over?
Margaret O'Hara: 'Tis not tricks that I'm up to, Ted. I came to say goodbye and to wish the two of you, you and Seabiscuit, the best of luck.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: But, I thought you'd be able to forgive me when you saw how it was.
Margaret O'Hara: Forgive you for allowing Uncle Shawn's evil, old tongue to sway you?
Ted Knowles, Jockey: I'm not hiding behind your uncle.
Margaret O'Hara: The old conniver. Oh, aren't you now? I suppose he had nothing to do with it.
Ted Knowles, Jockey: I would have done it anyway. Because I love you, I thought it was the right thing for me to quit riding. But it wasn't right because it made me quit a loser. And this much I do know about the O'Haras, you wouldn't want a man that was a loser. So, I'll quit a winner or not at all.
Margaret O'Hara: Is that all you have to say, Ted?
Ted Knowles, Jockey: That's all Margaret. Except, I love you.

Mrs. Charles S. Howard: But Charlie, he's earned a rest.
Charles S. Howard, Seabiscuit's Owner: You brought back Golden Girl, remember?

Charles S. Howard, Seabiscuit's Owner: Then there's no chance?
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: A faint one, if any.
Charles S. Howard, Seabiscuit's Owner: Faint or not, we'll take it. Not even you can talk me off the Biscuit, Shawn.
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: As you say, sir.
Charles S. Howard, Seabiscuit's Owner: Well, what's the program?
Shawn O'Hara, Seabiscuit's Trainer: Well, give up everything else and devote ourselves to nursing him alone.
