View Quote Cora Munro: They're going to hang you. Why didn't you leave when you had the chance?

View Quote Maj. Heyward: I thought all our colonial scouts were in the militia. The militia is fighting the French in the north.

View Quote Maj. Heyward: You call yourself a patriot, and loyal subject to the Crown?
Hawkeye: I do not call myself subject to much at all.
View Quote Maj. Heyward: There is a war on. How is it you are heading west?
Hawkeye: Well, we face to the north and, real subtle like, turn left.
View Quote Maj. Heyward: Might I inquire after the situation sir, given that I've seen the French engineering from the ridge above.
Colonel Munro: The situation is that his guns are bigger than mine and he has more of them. We keep our heads down while his troops dig 30 yards of trench a day. When those trenches are 200 yards from the fort and within range, he'll bring in his 15-inch mortars, lob explosive rounds over our walls, and pound us to dust.
View Quote Maj. Heyward: And who empowered these colonials to pass judgement on England's policies, and to come and go without so much as a "by your leave"?
Cora Munro: They do not live their lives "by your leave"! They hack it out of the wilderness with their own two hands, burying their children along the way!
View Quote Jack Winthrop: You're not coming with us?
Hawkeye: I've got a reason to stay.
Jack Winthrop: That reason wear a striped skirt and work in the surgery?

View Quote Maj. Heyward: You there, Scout! We must rest soon, the women are tired.
Magua: No, two leagues, better water. We stop there.
Maj. Heyward: No, we'll stop in the glade just ahead. When the ladies are rested, we will proceed. Do you understand?
Magua: [speaking Huron] Magua understands that the white man is a dog to his women. When they are tired, he puts down his tomahawk to feed their laziness.
Maj. Heyward: Excuse me, what did you say?
Magua: Magua said... he understands English very well.
View Quote [Maj. Heyward aims a pistol at Hawkeye]
Hawkeye: Haven't you got anything better to do on the lake today, Major?
Maj. Heyward: [puts away his pistol] When you fall back into English hands I'll have you hanged!
