Quotes 

• Jason McCord : I surveyed Alaska. It's rich in gold. And other minerals according to the samples I brought back. Unlimited natural resources. And Mr Seward, you could build a fishing industry that would completely outrank the East.

  William Henry Seward : That'' put a burr under their saddles.

  Jason McCord : The land itself is thick with wildlife, the soil richer than any I've ever seen.

• William Henry Seward : You know, we're kindred spirits, you and I. Yes, they branded you a coward and me a fool. Ah, but we'll both live it down. Why, I weathered accidents, thieves, assassins' knives, a ranting president and a screaming public. Fate must have a better end in store for me. But before I leave this vale of tears, I want just one moment of triumph. I think you can understand it, Jason.

• William Henry Seward : They can't ignore something bigger than Texas.

• William Henry Seward : There's nothing wrong with me but old age.
