Sam Tucker I was so plumb wore out for awhile I didn't seem to believe in nothin' no more. But, now my clothes are startin' to dry and I'm beginnin' to believe again. I guess that's the way the Earth feels when she's wet. But, the Sun will start dryin' her out and she'll start callin' to me again, just the way Nona does sometimes.

Tim All you farmers is just the same. Gamblers! That's what you all are, to a man. Year after year you starve yourself to death and hope that some fine day - well, I think you're loco.

Nona Tucker [bringing the cooked possum to the dinner table] Easy, you'll all get your share.
Sam Tucker Hold on, everybody. There's gonna be a blessing. Much obliged, Lord. Looks like the Tuckers are gonna make the grade, after all. Amen.
Nona Tucker Granny! Granny gets the first, 'cause she's the youngest.
Granny I'd taken the Lord to be a stranger in this house.
Nona Tucker Then comes Jotty, 'cause he's the littlest. Then comes Papa, 'cause he caught the possum. And this one's for Zoolie, because he helped him.
[delivers a portion to the dog]
Nona Tucker And last of all, Daisy and me, 'cause we're the women folk.

Sam Tucker Them machines of yours, and they're fine, I realize that, but, you sure can't eat 'em. Once in awhile you gotta have a hunk of beef and few ears of corn to fill up your belly. Oh, you city folks are mighty smart. But, I'm afraid without us farmers, you'd get kinda skinny.
Tim And without us workers, I just wonder what'd happen to you all. Your plow, she sure didn't grow on no tree. And your gun that you feed your bunch with in the winter, you didn't plant no seeds to get that. Someday like, I hope you get you a tractor. Where do you reckon that'll come from? Believe me, friend, it takes all kind to make up this whole world. You love your farm. It's right you stay. I like to work in a factory.

Nona Tucker Tomorrow, I guess we'll be though with the plowin'.
Granny Heh! Through with the plowin'. I'll be jiggered. As if we'd ever get through with the plowin'. I'm goin' back to the house and just sit and wait for my call to glory.

Harmie Tim just came back to show off his city clothes.
Townsman Yeah, just take a look at that fancy tie. Seems like in the city, dollars grow faster than beans in the field.
Tim Don't pay no mind to those yokels. Sam, I've been lookin' all over for ya. Let's go over to the Seamen's and I'll buy us a beer and tell you all about it.
Sam Tucker Brother, I'm with you anytime you'll buy me a beer.

Devers How 'bout you? How'd you get started?
Devers Sharecrop. First year I lost my whole crop. It was ruined by the hale. Next year, black leg got my cow and pig that I spent all my savings fer. My wife caught cold and she died. Two years later, one of my kids, the boy, he died from Spring Sickness. Maybe I lost 'em both, my woman and my kid, because I didn't have no money for doctorin'. Here I am with a farm, a good one, belongs all to me and is worth lots of money. Only I can't forget what it cost me.

Granny The way I see it, we ain't gonna have no dinner again tonight.
Nona Tucker Never you mind, Granny. For breakfast we'll have a nice big bowl of corn meal mush!
Granny When you all look down on my cold dead face in the county pine box, you'll be sorry then! Maybe!
Nona Tucker You keep on promisin' Granny. You don't never deliver the goods.
