A scene from Hud 1963
Homer Bannon

That's your solution for getting out of a tight fix? To pass bad beef on to my neighbors who wouldn't know what they was getting? Or risk starting an epidemic in the entire country?

Hud Bannon

This country is run on epidemics; where you been? Price-fixing, crooked TV shows, inflated expense accounts...How many honest men you know? Why, if you separate the saints from the sinners, you're lucky to wind up with Abraham Lincoln. Now I want out of this spread what I put into it, so let's dip our bread into that gravy while it's still hot!

Homer Bannon

You're an unprincipled man, Hud.

Hud Bannon

Don't let that worry you none. You got enough for both of us.
