The Hateful Eight Quote
John 'The Hangman' Ruth: [to Warren]What's Wellenbeck?
Sheriff Chris Mannix: You ain't never heard of Wellenbeck Prisoner of War camp, West Virginia?
John 'The Hangman' Ruth: No, Reb. I ain't never heard of it! [to Warren]
John 'The Hangman' Ruth: You bust out?
Sheriff Chris Mannix: Oh, Major Marquis did more than just bust out. Major Marquis had a bright idea. So bright you have to wonder why ain't nobody never thought about it before! [to Warren]
Sheriff Chris Mannix: Tell John Ruth your bright idea...
Major Marquis Warren: [smirks]Well, the whole damn place was just made out of kindling. [pause]
Major Marquis Warren: So I burnt it down! [Warren, John Ruth and Daisy all burst out in laughter; Mannix frowns in anger]
Sheriff Chris Mannix: There was a rookie regiment there spending the overnight in the camp! 47 men, BURNT TO A CRISP! Southern youth, farmer's sons, cream of the crop...
Major Marquis Warren: And I say let 'em burn! [Mannix looks at Warren with shock and disgust]
Major Marquis Warren: I'm supposed to apologize for killin' Johnny Reb? You joined the war to keep niggers in chains. I joined the war to kill white Southern crackers. And that means killing 'em in any way I can! Shoot 'em, stab 'em, drown 'em, burn 'em, throw a big 'ol rock on their heads! Whatever it took to keep white Southern crackers in the ground, that's what I joined the war to do and that's what I did! [Warren and Mannix both glare at each other with hate]
