Dallas quotes

I guess some people are just too damn mean to die. [shakes J.R.'s hand]

[Ann is pointing a shotgun at J.R] Bullets don't seem to have much of an effect on me, darling.

The best way to understand a man, is to talk to his friends... and his enemies. My friends are in the State House. My enemies are gonna be harder to find.

[to Cliff Barnes] I'll be there when they put you in the ground, Barnes. Listen close, I'll be the one dancing on the dirt overhead.

Cliff

You are never gonna be one of them, Christopher, and don't let them destroy you like they did Pam.

[to John Ross] I spent most of your childhood chasing after women I didn't love, makin' deals that didn't really matter. I will get Southfork back. Because you shouldn't have to pay for my sins.

Cliff

Well, you're lookin' pretty spry for all you've been through, old pal. Cliff Barnes, remember me?

Time has not been kind to that face. But I do recall the smell of brimstone and crazy...

[holding a file on Veronica Martinez aka Marta del Sol] Well, I'd say when it comes to jealousy, our girl is crazier than an outhouse rat. [smiles]

Bum

Man, I hope I'm never on the wrong end of that smile, J.R.

Cliff

I will never stop fighting for what is rightfully mine. And I know you are the same way.

I'm a changed man, Cliff. Evidence of that is the fact that you're not being wheeled out of here with two broken legs.

Daddy always said beautiful women were the most dangerous.

Bobby

[impatient to get to the point] I know all the things daddy used to say.

Ewing Oil is back in business, Bobby!

Bobby

That's not gonna happen, J.R. [holds up a deed stating J.R. owns Southfork]

You wanna carry on mama's legacy? Well, I wanna carry on daddy's.

Ann

They warned me. My whole marriage, they told me about you. But in my wildest imagination, I never thought you could stoop to this.

Well Annie, you're just gonna have to work on your imagination.

[to Bobby] The last thing I'd want to do is have to kick you off this ranch. Like you did to me.

[to John Ross] Just start drillin'. By the time I'm back, Bobby will have gotten used to oil being pumped on Southfork and the damage will be done. Just don't screw it up.

Thank you for bringing this, but it doesn't mean that we automatically trust you again, Rebecca.
