Vi Moore
- Reverend Shaw Moore: [discussing Ariel] We're losing her, Vi. Don't you see that?
- Vi Moore: No. I see you chasing after her and I see her running from you.
- Reverend Shaw Moore: She's become so willful, so obstinate.
- Vi Moore: She's like her father. The two of you were so wonderful once. You had so much to talk about. I was almost jealous.
- Reverend Shaw Moore: It's not as if we don't talk. It's just that sometimes people run out of things to say.
- Vi Moore: Shaw, it's 20 years now I've been a minister's wife. And I've been quiet, supportive, unobtrusive and after 20 years I still think you're a wonderful, a wonderful preacher. You can lift a congregation up so high they have to look down to see heaven. But it's the one to one where you need a little work.
- Vi Moore: None of this is going to undo one stupid accident.
- Reverend Shaw Moore: I'm responsible for the spiritual life of this community.
- Vi Moore: Shaw, you can't be a father to everybody. You can't do that.
- Reverend Shaw Moore: I thought that at least *you* believed in me.
- Vi Moore: [whispering] I never stopped.
- Andy Beamis: You're the last folks I expected to see around here tonight.
- Reverend Shaw Moore: Hi Andy.
- Vi Moore: Hi Andy.
- Andy Beamis: Reverend, you done a good thing here.
- Reverend Shaw Moore: Well, I'm still not sure it was the right thing.
- Andy Beamis: Comes close.
- Ren: [attempting to address the town hall meeting] I'd like to say something if I could... .
- Eleanor Dunbar: [Standing up to interrupt Ren as the crowd murmurs and the gavel bangs] This is outrageous!...
- Vi Moore: [interrupting Eleanor] Eleanor, sit down. I think Mr. McCormick has a right to be heard.
