Annabelle Lee quotes from The General (1926)

Annabelle Lee

Did Johnnie enlist?
Annabelle's brother: He didn't even get in line.

Mr. Lee

He's a disgrace to the South.

Annabelle Lee

Why didn't you enlist?

Johnnie Gray

They wouldn't take me.
Annabelle Lee Please don't lie I don't want you to speak to me again until you are in uniform.

Johnnie Gray

We had better stay here until daybreak to see where we are.

Annabelle Lee

It was so brave of you to risk your life, coming into the enemy's country, just to save me.
