Quote context

[...]

- Clear the room!

- Gentlemen, I would have a word with Mister Travis if you'll excuse us. Con permiso.

- Mister Travis, were you going to complain to me about Jim Bowie?

- Not complain, sir.

- Of course Jim Bowie's drunk. He took this town from General Cos. He fought a battle. And now he's drunk. Seems kinda natural to me.

- Or perhaps you question something other than Bowie's drinking.

- Are you gonna tell me that he's got a lot of acreage around here? That he's married into the Mexican aristocracy?

- Yes, sir.

- I would trust Jim Bowie with my life. More than that, I would trust him with the lives of my family. And more than that, I would trust him with the life of Texas.

- Sir.

- That's all, Travis.

- Yes, sir.

- Travis!

- I've never been able to like you, but you are another one of the very few men I would trust with the life of Texas.

- For that, thank you, sir.

- And it may very well be that that life rests in your hands now.

- Jethro! Is that you?

- Yes, sir, General. This is me.

There's right, and there's wrong. You got to do one or the other. You do the one, and you're living. You do the other, and you may be walking around, but you're dead as a beaver hat.

Some words can give you a feeling that makes your heart warm. Republic is one of those words.
You know something, Flaca? I guess I saw who knows how many trees before I ever took a long, thoughtful look at one. Mostly, I looked at a tree to see was there a bear in it or an Indian behind it.
Republic. I like the sound of the word. It means people can live free, talk free, go or come, buy or sell, be drunk or sober. However they choose.
