Quotes 

• Mason Morgan : These are all farming folk here, once upon a time, and if it's one thing they know it's the sky.

  Alice Walker : ALICE: I guess I never really realized it, since nobody farms here anymore.

• Alice Walker : There's just that one gigantic plantation, what's it called? You ever been past there? Their obnoxious signage looming over us on the one main road in the county, you know? I mean, gimme a break. We get it, you and your machines work here.

  Mason Morgan : I live there.

• Ruth Parker : It's like, what if it's this guy and he likes that guy, and he likes him back? How come that's not treated the same? Why's it gotta feel so different to everyone?

  Alice Walker : I'm so glad your parochial surroundings haven't made you a more narrow minded person, Ruth.

• Alice Walker : I love him.

  Patrice Parker : You love him? You lo-ove him! Aw shit, can't get the girl outta Hale now. She gonna get all stunted like my Ruth.

  Alice Walker : You're a monster, Patrice. Look who you've turned into.

  Patrice Parker : There you go! Talk like you know who I am, like you've grown up with me or somethin'.

• Alice Walker : Well, what did you do all day?

  Mason Morgan : Read, ran, played with the dog.

  Alice Walker : ...Isn't that what you do every day? I just think it's frivolous to read day in and day out with no action.

  Mason Morgan : ...I'm an economist, it's what I do.

  Alice Walker : "I'm an economist, it's what I do."

  Mason Morgan : Seriously. I just got my Ph.D... Yeah. It's Dr. Mason Morgan to you, from now on. Definitely.

  Alice Walker : ...Yeah, you don't share, huh? You're a selective sharer. You cut your sharing short, you're a share cropper.
