Marian Templeton:
It's not just our people, it's our future - the future of the whole country. Grey, a few years ago, a party of settlers was crossing the desert. They saw a cloud after a thunderstorm that formed the image of an eagle... and the sun behind it cast the shadow of an eagle all the way to the mountains. Well, they took this as an omen - as a sign that the eagle of this country must spread it's wings all the way to the ocean and that's where Papa must go, and I with him.

Captain Grey Holden:
Well, I can't very well argue with that.
