Antoinette Lily : You're living in a dream world! There are no more cowboys and Indians. That's in the past!
Bronco Billy McCoy : Miss Lily, I was raised in a one-room tenement in New Jersey. As a kid, I never even saw a cowboy, much less the wide open spaces - except when I could scrounge up a quarter for a picture show. I was a shoe salesman until I was 31 years old. Deep down in my heart I always wanted to be a cowboy. One day I laid down my shoehorn and - swore I'd never live in the city again. You only live once. You got to give it your best shot.

Antoinette Lily : Oh, my God, I'm even beginning to talk like you.

Irene Lily : Darling, now that you're home, I want us so much to become friends.
