Quotes from
Mary Dwight Strauber: You think I'm pretty low, don't you?
David Graham: Now, what do you expect me to think? I meet a lot of people in this job. Some of them I feel sorry for because they - they just can't help themselves. They don't know any better. They're the misfits of the world. But you, you're not that kind. You know what's right and you know what's wrong. You know better, but you just won't do anything about it. You choose to think that you can get through the world by outsmarting it. Well, I've learned that those kind of people generally end up outsmarting themselves. And that's exactly what's going to happen to you. And I won't feel a bit sorry about it, because, lady, you've got it coming to you.
Mary Dwight Strauber: Thanks for telling me.
Mary Dwight Strauber: I'm sick of making deals.
Dorothy 'Gabby' Marvin: Well, you wanna keep on living, don't you?
Mary Dwight Strauber: If this is what you call living, I don't want any part of it. Always being afraid. Never knowing from one day to the next what's going to happen to you. I'm fed up with being afraid of Vanning or anybody else. There must be some other way for me to live. If there isn't, I... well, I'd just as soon put a bullet in my head right now and end it.
Mary Dwight Strauber: I'll get you, even if I have to crawl back from the grave to do it!
