Samuel Fields quotes from Deadwood

Samuel Fields

[talking to a horse before he and Hostetler castrate it] Now, if you want to take it out on someone, remember it was very dark-skinned white folks that cut on you. They just sounded like niggers to throw you off.

Hostetler

Horse run trash like that over by accident, still ain't a white man on earth gonna stand up against roping us up, now is there?

Samuel Fields

John Brown would've.

Samuel Fields

Ain't meanin' to be here long, ain't looking to drink. All's I'm here for, Steve, is to talk to this here gentleman.

Steve

Go ahead and do somersaults or peel bananas with each other for all I give a fuck. Whole place has gone to shit anyhow.

Samuel Fields

Cause I'm a nigger, Doc, that don't care what stands or falls.

Doc Cochran

Hostetler was too.

Samuel Fields

Hostetler was taller than me.

Right to vote shall not be abridged or denied... [drinks]... on account of race or color or condition of previous servitude. 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, ratified 1870, law of the land thereafter, including territories.

They got something about niggers not waiting their turn?

Not that I'm aware of.

Oh, you ain't aware of it? Then I guess you'll want this white man voting first?

Fields

What's a few minutes more?

Charlie Utter

The nigger was before him.

No he wasn't.

Charlie Utter

I guess you're blind and stupid.

Fields

I believe I'll vote later.

Charlie Utter

Fuck if you will. Get your nigger ass back in line.

[to Fields] You'd better be walking him home afterwards. [pulls on his collar and gags]

Charlie Utter

You'd better see to that yourself, ‘cause if he don't make it, you'll be eating your spuds runnin' till I hunt you the fuck down.
