Quotes 

• James 'Big Jim' Rennie : It's a good feeling, isn't it? Doing right by the town. I love that feeling.

  Julia Shumway : You've had it so rarely.

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Yeah, well, you'll disappoint them soon enough.

  Julia Shumway : You trying to rattle me, Jim?

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Just don't want you to feel too good about yourself. You and I both know whose town this is.

  Julia Shumway : It's not yours. It's not mine. And the first thing I'm gonna do it give it back to them.

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Give it back to them?

  Julia Shumway : Voting. These people are entitled to a saying in what happens to them.

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : That's interesting. You're gonna put a town on the brink in the hands of scared, desperate people? Is there a brain under that hair? These people don't need to talk about their feelings. They need to be led.

  Julia Shumway : I did you a favor by convincing "these people" not to string you two up. Don't test my patience.

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : The only reason this town didn't riot is 'cause I took your hand. Half this town is mine. Don't you forget that.

• Andrea Grinnell : What's Julia say about this windmill?

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Well, I don't know 'cause Julia is not here. I am. But I guess I'm not supposed to give orders anymore. That's apparently not my place. So, let's do it democratically. All those in favor of the mist dispersal system, doing something instead of nothing, raise your hand.

  Andrea Grinnell : Everyone in favor of Jim shutting up while we wait the storm out?

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Great.

  [Ben heads for the door] 

  James 'Big Jim' Rennie : Where are you going?

  Ben Drake : Neither wind nor rain nor creepy-ass dust.
