The Last Frontier1955

Gus:
Sorry about the Colonel back.

Jed Cooper:
I ain't glad.

Gus:
Jed, you did right. And I'm proud of you. Makes me feel as though I didn't bring you up too bad after all.

Jed Cooper:
I didn't do it for you, Gus.

Gus:
She made you, didn't she? Well, most likely she wanted him dead just as much as you do, but only she couldn't. That 'll be the Christian in her. That's the part of your education that's most been sadly lacking. You ain't got no Christian in you.

Jed Cooper:
I ain't?

Gus:
No. There's two kinds of love, Jed. The way you love and the way a christian does. She can't be had your way.

Jed Cooper:
How the Christians do?

Gus:
Well, they begin with... you don't pine for another man's wife.

Jed Cooper:
Never?

Gus:
Well, maybe sometimes. But a good Christian fights it off.

Jed Cooper:
How?

Gus:
Well, he gots himself another woman.

Jed Cooper:
You mean a Christian loves a woman he don't like, because he can't get the one he wants? I call that real sneaky!
