connections. But they are powerful. – JR to John Ross
No point in drowning your sorrows.
You didn't think I put all my oil in one
barrel, did you? – JR to John Ross
Bobby may not be stupid, but I'm a hell
of a lot smarter ... So, I was saying but oil is thicker than both.

Daddy always said beautiful women were
the most dangerous. – JR
Besides, what you don't know, you can't
tell. – JR
After all we've been through, I thought
you might have changed. / Oh, people don't. Now, maybe the clothes we wear, the
size of one's heels. It's nice to see you're not afraid to be wearing them
anymore, by the way. But the soul? I think that stays pretty constant.
Ep 6 – The enemy of my enemy
It's funny how life always seems more
complicated than you imagined it would be.
I don't believe in the war … but I
believe in the warrior.

still its father. – Rebecca to Christopher

very... Skilled dancer ... someone like me. My point is this. I can spot a good
dancer when I see one, Mr. Ewing. And you ... Are not a good dancer.
A hundred-year-old trust is not gonna
hold up in court.
If my boy doesn't find a way to dissolve
it, his mama will.
A cheated man is a dangerous man.
Why doesn't he just ask me himself? /
Because he's a man. And worse, he's a Ewing
man. And the Ewings always have to

Elena, when the day comes between your
child and anybody else, I hope you choose wisely.

I did. – Bobby to Harris
