Quotes 

• Jess-Belle Stone : I want to win a man's love.

  Granny Hart : Well, womankind's got her own kind of witchcraft for that.

  Jess-Belle Stone : He was mine for a while. Came sneaking off at night, kept a-quiet what went on between him and me. Never took me anyplace for the world to know. He made me promises. He made them when his face was hot as blood. Forgot them as soon as he was ten feet from my door.

  Granny Hart : Honey, you don't know much about men, do you?

  Jess-Belle Stone : Only him.

• Jess-Belle Stone : Change me back. Please, I'll pay. I promise I'll pay.

  Granny Hart : Well, your promises ain't much good. You're already trying to get out of paying for the first favor I done you.

• Granny Hart : [Poem sung throughout episode and Closing Narration]  Fair was Elly Glover, / Dark was Jess-Belle, / Both they loved the same man, / And both they loved him well.
