Ethan Blount:
I work for Henchard because I work for him. It's that simple.

Luke Perry:
Well, maybe to you it's simple, but not to me. A man who's done what you've done for a town, who thinks the way you do, who believes in things like you - he just doesn't suddenly throw that all away and go against his principles unless another man breaks him down.

Ethan Blount:
You're young, Luke. That's why you can see things so clear - but you're wrong. Something else can break a man down, stronger even than Henchard.

Luke Perry:
What else is there?

Ethan Blount:
Life, pain, loss, hurt... the slow, sick poison of existence.
