"[to Matt] I asked you before why you were so mad. Is it, is it because your cattle, the cattle Cherry told me about, might run off? Or maybe, maybe you dont like the idea of helping, helping a bunch of women."

"Im scared too. Thats why Im talking because its the best thing to do when you feel that way. Just talk and keep on talking...I talk to myself even if I have to sit in front of a mirror and talk...You can talk to me. Im right here. It would help. Oh please, you can tell me to mind my own business if youd like. And if it would help any, you can hit me, like I did you right across the mouth. But it would be good for you to talk, and Id like to talk to you...Please, Id really like to talk to ya."

"And that was the meeting of a boy with a cow and a man with a bull and the beginning of a great herd.
