Quote context

[...]

- Well, I'm all fixed, as far as I'm concerned, as a medicine man.

- I'll have 3 meals a day or 5 if I want them. Roof over my head and a drink every now and then to warm me up.

- I haven't got any idea.

- Oh, you're young yet. You got plenty of time to make 3 or 4 fortunes for yourself.
