Man vs. Woman

"Man, he lives in jerks-baby born an' a man dies, an' that's a jerk - gets a farm an' loses his farm, and' that's a jerk. Woman, it's all one flow, like a stream, little eddies, little waterfalls, but the river, it goes right on. Woman looks at it like that."

Poor people are the only ones that help.

She started for the door, and when she reached it, she turned about. "I'm learnin' one thing good," she said. "Learnin' it all a time, ever'day. If you're in trouble or hurt or need-go to poor people. They're the only ones that'll help-the only ones."

Sin...

Casy said gently, "Sure I got sins. Ever'body got sins. A sin is somepin you ain't sure about. Them people that's sure about ever'thing an' ain't got no sin-well, with that kind of a son-of-a-bitch, if I was God I'd kick their ass right out of heaven! I couldn't stand 'em!"

"You think it was a sin to let my wife die like that?"

"well," said Casy, "for anybody else it was a mistake, but if you think it was a sin-then it's a sin. A fella build his own sins right up from the groun'."

Bank

- The bank isn't a man.

- Yes, but the bank is only made of men.

- No, you're wrong there - quite wrong there. The bank is something else that men. It happens that every man in a bank hates what the bank does, and yet the bank does it. The bank is something more than men, I tell you. It's the monster. Man made it, but they can't control it.
