| Quotes |
John Cord:
Nobody in his right mind could ask John Cord to move a herd now. Ralph Hamilton: Nobody but John Cord could move a herd this size - five thousand head full of ringers. John Cord: I'm lookin' at this room. It doesn't make me think you're desperate... doesn't make me think movin' five thousand head of cattle is life or death. Ralph Hamilton: Rooms don't change much but bank accounts do. See more » |
