I'd wake up at night with the smell of the ball park in my nose, the cool of the grass on my feet... The thrill of the grass.

Annie Kinsella

If you build what, who will come?

Ray Kinsella

He didn't say.

Annie Kinsella

I mean, Shoeless Joe...

Ray Kinsella

He's dead. Died in '51. He's dead.

Annie

He's the one they suspended, right?

Ray

Right.

Annie

He's still dead?

Ray

Far as I know.

Ray Kinsella

The voice is back.

Annie Kinsella

Oh, Lord... you don't have to build a football field now, do you?

Terence Mann was a voice of reason during a time of great madness. He coined the phrase, "Make love, not war". Where others were chanting, "Burn, baby burn", he talked about love, and peace and understanding. I cherished every one of his books, and I dearly wish he had written some more. And I think that if you had experienced even a little bit of the Sixties, you might feel the same way too.

Pro-censorship woman

I experienced the Sixties.

Annie Kinsella

No, I think you had two '50's and moved right on to the '70's.

Annie Kinsella

What if the Voice calls while you're gone?

Ray Kinsella

Take a message.

Beulah Gasnick

I experienced the Sixties.

Annie Kinsella

No, I think you had two '50's and moved right in to the '70's.

Beulah Gasnick

Well, your husband plowed under his corn and built a baseball field!...The weirdo!

Annie Kinsella

At least he is not a book burner, you Nazi cow!

Beulah Gasnick

At least I'm not married to the biggest horse's ass in three counties!

Annie Kinsella

Who's for Eva Braun here? Who wants to burn books? Who wants to spit on the Constitution of the United States of America, anybody? Now who's for the Bill of Rights? Who thinks that freedom is a pretty darn good thing? Who thinks that we have to stand up to the kind of censorship that they had under Stalin?
