Indian Girl
- Jules Vincent: Tell me, you're part Chippewa, are you not? What are you doing here...
- Indian Girl: In a place like this?
- Jules Vincent: Yes.
- Indian Girl: I wonder myself. I thought maybe - you see I wanted to sing. Now it's just a job. One has to eat, that's all.
- Jules Vincent: It's not enough.
- Indian Girl: Why isn't it?
- Jules Vincent: Because you're not happy.
- Indian Girl: And how can you tell this?
- Jules Vincent: Oh, the way you sing, the way you act.
- Indian Girl: Well, if I'm not happy, at least I'm working.
- Jules Vincent: No, no work is is good that does not make you happy.
- Jules Vincent: Don't make it more than it is.
- Indian Girl: I know what it is. It's your life!
- Jules Vincent: Listen, for a man or a mole or a bird, everyday is life and death.
- Jules Vincent: I come here to get drunk and - -
- [looks at the Indian Girl up and down]
- Jules Vincent: to talk.
- Indian Girl: Are you drunk now?
- Jules Vincent: No. Not yet. When I am drunk I got back to my trap lines. You see, a man should do what he does the best. If I were to go after gold, I would just be another fool. But, in my own life, I am the best. And gold can buy many things; but, it cannot buy that.
- Indian Girl: You are the best one?
- Jules Vincent: Sure. I am the best trapper in the north country.
- Indian Girl: You are sure you are not drunk yet?
