The Call of the Wild1935
Shorty Hoolihan:
Gee, I wonder what it's going to be like having things instead of wishing for 'em.
Claire Blake:
It's not nearly as much fun.
Jack Thornton:
You're wrong, Claire. Wishing never got anybody anyplace. It's owning something that counts and taking it when you can't get it any other way... that's all right too. It's the law up here... the law of the Klondike. If there is something you need, grab it! Take it away from the other guy. It's a good law. It works.
Claire Blake:
No, it only works when you deserve to have what you take. Otherwise, it's stealing. Perhaps that particular commandment isn't respected up here.
Jack Thornton:
They all get broken. That one gets splintered.
