- Hunter: So how's mom doing without me?
- Hank: She's ok. She brought an umbilical cord home from work, last week. Buried it in the back yard for some damn reason.
- Hunter: That's so nobody could put a curse on it.
- Hank: I think about it, she buried yours too.
- Hunter: Lot of good it did me. I was born cursed.
- Hank: Hey, you ain't cursed. I always admired you.
- Hunter: You sure about that?
- Hank: Yeah. You ain't never got a break with your health. You kept on laughing like an idiot, anyway.
- Dr. Moore: You remember Jimmy Little John, Oklahoma City?
- Hunter: The only other Indian hemophiliac in the state? Sure, how could I forget him.
- Dr. Moore: He passed away. I wanted you to hear it from me.
- Hunter: I saw him dancing at powwows last summer. What happened?
- Dr. Moore: You ever heard of AIDS? From your mom or on the news?
- Hunter: That's that gay disease, right?
- Dr. Moore: There's no such thing as a gay disease.
- Hunter: So what are you saying? Jimmy died of AIDS?
- Dr. Moore: Yeah.
- Hunter: How'd he get it?
- Dr. Moore: Through his infusions.
- Marvin: Everyone wants to know how much blood runs through an Indian. It's kinda hard to tell unless you cut one of us open and watch all the stories pour out.
- Hank: You wanna tell him he's got to be the first man on either side of the family that don't hunt, be my guest. I just don't wanna be around when you do it.
- Maggie: You're set on taking him, then take him. But I want you to pad his shoulder and hunt as close to town as possible.
- Hank: I'll slap a damn bullet proof vest on him if I have to!
- Marvin: You don't need practice for what you're looking for, Hunter, just courage. And you're full of that.
