Burn! (1969)
Norman Hill: Shelton
Quotes
-
Sir William Walker : The man that fights for an idea is a hero. And a hero who is killed becomes a martyr and a martyr immediately becomes a myth. A myth is more dangerous than a man because you can't kill a myth. Don't you agree, Shelton? I mean, think of his ghost running through the Antilles. Think of the legends and the songs.
Shelton : Better songs than armies.
Sir William Walker : Better silence than songs.

Shelton : There are no more plantations, they're all burnt to the ground.
Sir William Walker : They'll rise again.
Shelton : In 10 years, Sir William.
Sir William Walker : Well, you have another 89 years to exploit them.
