Reverend Smith quotes from Deadwood

Men like Mr. Seth Bullock there raise the camp up.

Johnny

Yeah, the fella to be put in that box might argue with you, Reverend.

Ah, Mr. Bullock did not draw first. And I, point to his commissioning me to build the departed a coffin and, and see to his Christian burial.

This is God's purpose, but not knowing the purpose is my portion of suffering.

Doc Cochran

If this is His will, He is a son of a bitch.

This is God's purpose. The not knowing the purpose is my portion of suffering.

Doc Cochran

And is there any pain competing with the not knowing?

I'm not in pain. There are new smells I smell, and there are parts of my body I can't feel, and His—and His love.

Doc Cochran

And you want to continue like this?

As he long as He wills, this must be my part. To be afraid, as well.

Doc Cochran

Well, if this is His will, Reverend, He is a son of a bitch.
