Quotes 

• Naru : I don't know that this thing can be killed.

  Taabe : If it bleeds, we can kill it.

• Naru : Taabe, this morning in the sky, I saw a sign. The thunderbird. I've been practicing. It's time. I'm ready for my kühtaamia.

  Taabe : You really think you're ready? You wanna hunt something that's hunting you?

• Taabe : [shoots the falcon]  You were sleeping.

  Naru : I was waiting for it to circle back. Now you're gonna have to cross the river to get it. Don't get your bowstring wet.

• Taabe : It's time, Naru. Your kühtaamia. When the lion comes, you tell that thing, "This is far as you go. No more. This is it."

• Taabe : Naru, we don't need the torches. They'll scare the cat. We're in its hunting grounds. Why'd you come back?

  Naru : I found tracks, and they were huge.

  Taabe : I'm not frightened by a bear.

  Naru : I don't think it was a bear. I don't know what it was. I've never seen anything like it. It skinned and gutted a snake.

  Taabe : Well, whatever it was, we're in the cat's den now. We have to deal with it first.
