Quotes8

  • Thomas Builds-the-Fire: Hey Victor! I'm sorry 'bout your dad.
  • Victor Joseph: How'd you hear about it?
  • Thomas Builds-the-Fire: I heard it on the wind. I heard it from the birds. I felt it in the sunlight. And your mom was just in here cryin'.
  • Victor Joseph, Thomas Builds-the-Fire: [singing] John Wayne's teeth, hey-a, hey-a! Are they false, are they real, are they plastic, are they steel?
  • Police Chief: This man apparently wants to press charges against you. He said and I quote "you assaulted him and pushed him to the ground".
  • Victor Joseph: That's bullshit.
  • Police Chief: Mr Joseph there's no need for that type of language. Mr Johnson's wife Holly says he's, and I quote, "a complete asshole". So you two are free to go.
  • Victor Joseph: You gotta look mean or people won't respect you. White people will run all over you if you don't look mean. You gotta look like a warrior! You gotta look like you just came back from killing a buffalo!
  • Thomas Builds-the-Fire: But our tribe never hunted buffalo - we were fishermen.
  • Victor Joseph: What! You want to look like you just came back from catching a fish? This ain't "Dances With Salmon" you know!
  • Arlene Joseph: If you leave here don't you ever come back. You hear me?
  • Victor Joseph: Dad don't go.
  • Victor Joseph: Thomas, you are so full of shit.
  • Victor Joseph: Thomas, don't you even know how to be a real Indian? How many times have you seen "Dances with Wolves" anyways? 100... 200 times? Oh jesus Thomas, you have seen it that many times?
  • Thomas Builds-the-Fire: Your father saved my life
  • Victor Joseph: Thomas you don't even know my father. Did you know that my father was the one that set your parent's house on fire? Did you know that my father beat my mother? Did you know that my father beat me too?
  • Thomas Builds-the-Fire: All I know is that when your father left your mother lost you too.
  • Victor Joseph: Thomas I wish that fire had killed you.
  • Thomas Builds-the-Fire: Victor LOOK OUT!
