• Louisa Frederici Cody : What is she doing here all alone?

  William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody : Yeah.

  Louisa Frederici Cody : That's terrible! Can't we do something for her?

  William F. 'Buffalo Bill' Cody : That's nature's way, Louisa. When anything becomes too old to be useful, it's just pushed aside.

  Louisa Frederici Cody : But it shouldn't be! That's why we have civilization!
