Demetria Riffle : I didn't make no concession at Bull Run when I was too young and I didn't make none at San Juan Hill - they said that I was too old then. So, I'll be hanged if I'm going to make any now to any frost-bitten, back-stabbin'...
John 'Pud' Northrup : Pismare.
Demetria Riffle : Pismare, like Demetria Riffle. Thank you, boy. I ain't through fightin' yet.

Julian Northrup : How was you aimin' to teach him not to trespass?
Demetria Riffle : I'd give him a good, sound whipping. That's what I'd do.
Julian Northrup : Oh, you would, huh? Well, thanks for tellin' me. And seein' as how there's *two* trespassers here, I'll start on the one handy.
