Johnny Trumbo : I'm sorry, Gramps, it looks like I'll be holding you back.
Michael Fabian : I'm in no hurry. The earth and the sun and the sky will still be there when we get there, Johnny.
Johnny Trumbo : Yeah, but not the gold, Gramps, not the gold.

Johnny Trumbo : No court would try you, Captain, because no one would hold that a black was a man. He was an animal which you beat and chained, and all he had to offer up against you was a prayer.
Pharaoh Coffin : Bilge, Mr. Trumbo, bilge. Most men love the chains they wear. They need a master the way they need their mothers. I've heard such talk from pulpits, "the meek shall inherit the earth." No, Mr. Trumbo, the earth belongs to the men who make the law, and the law belongs to the men who can lay it down.
