“Then you grew up and left me, you and Kyle, the rover boys. I guess...” – Marylee, Written on the Wind ... Movie Quotes Database

Marylee

Then you grew up and left me, you and Kyle, the rover boys. I guess that's why I hate him so, for taking you away from me. I love you, Mitch. I'm desperate for you. So desperate, I run to the likes of Roy Carter.

Mitch

All right, blame me.

Marylee

I'm not talking about blame. About love. Do you love me, Mitch?

Mitch

Like a brother.

Marylee

I don't want you as a brother.

Mitch

Can't be any other way, Marylee. Don't, please don't waste your life waiting for me.

Marylee

I'll wait, and I'll have you - marriage or no marriage.

The kind of assets he's got you can't buy with money. Kyle Hadley He [his father] wanted me to grow up with Mitch...Mitch's old man is my dad's boyhood pal -- his idol, I guess. A small rancher -- kind of a legend in our country. A great hunter, sort of a throwback to Daniel Boone. I used to wish he was my father...Dad's a big man -- so big that he and I know I can't fit his shoes, or even come close to him.
