Quote context

[...]

- Yeah, maybe you're right, seeing as how the prospects are far off.

- You know what? We ought to put some kind of a limit on our take... agree between ourselves, and when we get so much, we just pull up stakes and beat it.

- What do you think the limit ought to be?

- Oh, say $25000 worth apiece.

- 25000? Ah, small potatoes.

- How much do you say?

- Oh, 50000, anyway. 75 would be more like it.

- That would take a year at least if the vein held out, which wouldn't be likely.

- What's a year more or less when that kind of money's to be had?

- 25000's plenty as far as I'm concerned, enough to last me out the rest of my lifetime.

- Well, sure. You're old. I'm young. I need dough, and plenty of it.

- 25000 in one piece is more than I ever expected to get my hands on.

- Small potatoes.

- There's no use making hogs of ourselves.

Let me tell you something, my 2 fine bedfellows! You're so dumb, there's nothing to compare you with! You're dumber than the dumbest jackass! Look at each other, will you? You ever see anything like yourself for being dumb specimens? Ha ha ha ha...!
On the other hand, going with a partner, too, is dangerous... murder's always lurking about, partners accusing each other of all sorts of crimes.
Ah, I think I'll go to sleep and dream about piles of gold getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
Next time you fellas strike it rich, holler for me, will you, before you start splashing water around. Water's precious. Sometimes it can be more precious than gold.
