People need heroes to believe in and make them believe that victory is within reach.

But the title of hero is probably just a form of suffering and insult to some warriors who once fought hard to survive on the battlefield, but still occasionally driven by instinct and died for their brothers.

People always crave more than the truth when they're stuck, and find the truth when they don't need it, wiping out the outdated hero. And rarely thought that some people always bear the weight of truth, just to let more people get out of the light of faith.

    Mike Strank: I think it's the desert, Frankllin.

    Franklin Sousley: Well, that makes no sense at all.

    Mike Strank: Harlon, take your men right. Watch for Bedouins.

    Harlon Block: Yes, sir.

    Franklin Sousley: Hey, what's a Bedouin?

    Harlon Block: It's a guy with a camel.

    Franklin Sousley: Well, Jeez Louise, maybe we *are* going to the desert.

  • Lindberg: [while losing at poker] Chief, I had very little to do with Sitting Bull's death, so maybe you could stop taking it out on me.

    Hank Hansen: That *is* smart.

    Ira Hayes: Yeah. Worked real good for us.
