Quotes from Spencer Tracy's Characters

    1. Col. Tad Lawson: 'The hare was shot by the hunter in the field.' It's really quite simple.
    2. Capt. Harrison Byers: Colonel, I think we ought to be going.
    3. Judge Dan Haywood: Yes, we really shouldn't be discussing this.
    4. Col. Tad Lawson: No, Judge. We're fair Americans, and true-blue. We mustn't do anything that's out of order.
