Quotes
-
Charlie Parker : Like I said, mister, I'm just a rangehand like yourself. I don't do this professionally.
William Colton : That a fact? Let me see that palm of yours.
Charlie Parker : Hey!
William Colton : You never branded with that hand. Or pulled up fence posts or used a rope. That's a nice smooth palm you got there. No callouses on the fingertips. That's the hand of a six-fingered card shark with extra aces in his pocket. All dressed up like a cowhand, aren't ya? Ready to swoop down off of his perch once an easy mark walks into the room. A drunken drummer, a wide-eyed tenderfoot. How are you with widows and orphans, huh?
Charlie Parker : I get your point, mister.
William Colton : That's good.
