- Thomas 'Doc' Durant: Mr. Gundersen, have you ever had your heart ripped out by a woman?
- The Swede: I was married once, sir, but she run off with a gypsy. Uh, my heart was not ripped out, but, she did steal my cuckoo clock.
- Lily Bell: I'm afraid I'm not much of a carpenter.
- Cullen Bohannan: [testing her floor boards] No ma'am, you ain't.
- Lily Bell: Could you possibly help me? That is, if you're not busy killing anyone.
- The Swede: [mocking Bohannan as he searches for his quarry] In the midst of my homeland, there is a god who goes by the name of Loki. This Loki is the god of chaos. He causes nothing but trouble where ever he goes. No matter how hard the other gods try catch him, the slippery little devil always manages to escape.
- Elam Ferguson: You told me somethin' once. It's the only thing that set me free.
- Cullen Bohannan: Yeah, what's that?
- Elam Ferguson: You gotta let go of the past.
- Cullen Bohannan: [Rev. Cole is on his knees with his back to the door, cradling Lt. Griggs' severed, cloth-wrapped head in his arms when Cullen walks into the church] Uh... I don't, I don't mean to disturb your prayers, preacher.
- Reverend Cole: How can I help you, son?
- Cullen Bohannan: [sitting down on a pew] I'm on a dark... path, sir. Been on it for awhile now.
- Reverend Cole: Where does the dark path lead?
- Cullen Bohannan: More blood. More hatred. I met somebody who reached out to me, asked me to turn away from that darkness, and uh... you been wantin' to preach to me, so... here's your chance.
- Reverend Cole: [Cole sets the bundle down and stands up] Well, there... there is a God. Of that, I have no doubt.
- [pause]
- Reverend Cole: But there's a...
- [he quickly pushes the lid shut on Griggs' slightly open coffin]
- Reverend Cole: ... there's a Devil, too. And you, y'know what that ol', that ol' Devil did? Want me to tell you about that?
- [Cullen shrugs]
- Reverend Cole: Yeah? Well, that Devil, he, uh, cut off God's arms. And he hacked off God's legs. And he gouged out His eyes. Ripped out His tongue and then left Him lyin' there in a bloody heap on the floor. But... he left God's ears, so He could, He could hear us down here when we're wailin' and thrashin' and prayin' for His help.
- [he puts his hand on Cullen's shoulder]
- Reverend Cole: But brother, there ain't a damn thing God can do to help us.
- Cullen Bohannan: What're you sayin', preacher?
- Reverend Cole: Just... choose hate. It's so much easier.
- [Cullen gives him a disturbed look and gets up to leave]
- Reverend Cole: Brother!
- [he points emphatically as Cullen turns around and stares at him]
- Reverend Cole: Choose hate.
