Rev. Preston Teagardin: I've heard of cases in my reading about sin where someone got so sick... over some sin they felt they had committed that was so terrible that they... started imagining things. Back, I read a story about... people. Poor people. Barely able to write... thinking they're... the president or... or a Hollywood celebrity like Ava Gardner.
Lenora: I... I don't understand what you're talking about.
Rev. Preston Teagardin: The thing is, that's the part of it. The book says... it's not, not understanding. See, think about it. How... could I be the daddy... when all we done is spend time with the Lord?

Rev. Preston Teagardin: The good book... is filled with good men and women suffering delusions. Eve in the garden. Noah... naked, drunk. Bringing shame upon his family. The idol the Jews bowed before in the desert. And even the Lord Jesus himself was presented with delusions in the desert that only through his faith... and his strength... overcame.
[pause]
Rev. Preston Teagardin: The Lord's delusion in the desert was a game... of the so-called "Devil." And what the Lord experienced... was a delusion that would've kept him from saving us! But he did not fall for it! It is our delusions that lead us to sin. Striking a mother or a wife for something that you thought they said. Neglecting work or Sunday service for that matter. Some girl... gets a feeling for a fella and lets him have her holy gift. DELUSIONS! Blaspheming the lord in your mind and in your heart for some wrong done to you by another person.

Willard, Arvin: There's a lot of no-good sons of bitches out there.
