The Pleasure of His Company (1961)

Tab Hunter: Roger Henderson

Quotes 

• Biddeford 'Pogo' Poole : If I was your age and not her father, I'd make you fight me for her, boy.

  Roger Henderson : I wish I could.

  Biddeford 'Pogo' Poole : Hmmm?

• Jessica Poole : And that wild steer, mother. He egged him on. He dared father to ride him.

  Roger Henderson : He insisted on riding him. Why would I dare a man to ride a wild steer? I'm not out of my mind. He might have been killed.

  Katharine Dougherty : Oh, yesss!

  Biddeford 'Pogo' Poole : Nonsense. I just didn't get settled on him, that's all. I'd like to try that again some time, Roger.

  Katharine Dougherty : Tomorrow?

• Roger Henderson : Mr. Savage, you know her well. She will come out of this won't she?

  Mackenzie Savage : Uh, not unchanged. She'll never be the same.

  Roger Henderson : Why?

  Mackenzie Savage : And the serpent said unto Eve, enjoy yourself - and she was never the same. It's not accurate but it's apt.

• Jessica Poole : And then you deliberately gave him the wildest horse on the ranch.

  Roger Henderson : I didn't deliberately. He's not the wildest horse on the ranch. I can ride him. Every one of my hands can ride him. The Chinese cook can ride him.
