Hell on Wheels 5×3

& The Swede: You are God’s instrument. I come to remind you, is all.
    Bohannon: You remember... got you in my line of sight.

& Bohannon: No women on the railroad, plain and simple.

& Huntington: Spectacular! Three inches before lunch. That is what I call an improvement. We’ll be makin’ four foot a week.
    Bohannon: If it holds up.
    Huntington: Oh, Mr. Bohannon, you are like Hercules, triumphant after his seven labors. I believe in this colossus of yours.

& Huntington: Back in Sacramento, during the rush of ’49, every jackanape with a dollar and a dream wanted to turn up his fortune in gold. Now, the thing about gold is, it’s buried in the ground. If you wanna get it out, you gotta dig it up. In order to dig it up, you need one thing... At that time, a shovel cost $15. A plot of land, $75. I had $90 to my name, exactly $90. Just enough to buy a plot of land and a shovel.
    Jim: Or enough to buy six shovels...
    Huntington: The first six sold by Huntington Hardware Incorporated.

& Huntington: And Jim, uh, you can be a man with a shovel in your hand or you can be the man that sells the shovel to the man with a shovel in his hand.

& Jim: Matt Keane, Pete Jones, Dan Cates. They’re good men. They’re good men with families.
    Huntington: Good men with families get fired every day. Don’t be one of ’em.

& Chang: «By three methods we may learn wisdom. First, by reflection, second, by imitation...»
    Tao: «And third, by experience.»
    Chang: «Which is the bitterest.»
    Tao: Hmm. Wisdom gained through experience is the reason young men must respect their elders.

& Jim: I had it under control.
    Bohannon: Hell you did.
    Jim: It was moving in the right direction.
    Bohannon: Hell it was.

& Bohannon: This is America. Ain’t nobody belongs to nobody. We fought a war over it.
    Mei: But we still Chinese.

& The Swede: Control yourself. For your own good.

& Jim: All right, the railroad comes first.
    Bohannon: It’s all we got. You and me.
    Jim: Actually, boss, I have a wife. Five sons, a daughter, two dogs, eight hens, a couple of cats, and a canary.
    Bohannon: I liked you better quiet.

& Chang: So this is America. It may be the law, Mr. Bohannon, but it is not justice.
    Bohannon: No, it ain’t.
