O Brother, Where Art Thou?

They have a plan, but not a clue.

"You two are just dumber than a bag of hammers."

    --  Ulysses
 

"The Preacher said it absolved us."
"For him, not for the law. I'm surprised at you, Pete, I gave you credit for more brains than Delmar."
"But they was witnesses that seen us redeemed."
"That's not the issue Delmar. Even if that did put you square with the Lord, the State of Mississippi's a little more hard-nosed."

    --  Ulysses, Pete and Delmar
 

"Damn! We're in a tight spot!"

    --  Ulysses
 

"Me an' the old lady are gonna pick up the pieces and retie the knot, mixaphorically speaking."

    --  Ulysses
 

"What's the devil look like?"
"Well, Pete, there are all manner of lesser imps and demons, but the great Satan hisself is red and scaly with a bifurcated tail, and he carries a hay fork."
"Oh no, sir. He's white, as white as you folks, with empty eyes and a big hollow voice. He likes to travel around with a mean old hound."

    --  Pete, Ulysses and Tommy Johnson
 

"Pete, it's a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart."

    --  Ulysses
 

"Them syreens did this to him. They loved him up and turned him into a horny toad."

    --  Delmar
 

"Well I don't want Fop, godammit! I'm a Dapper Dan man!"

    --  Ulysses
 

"You work for the railroad, Grampa?"
"I work for no man."
"Got a name, do you?"
"I have no name."
"Well, that right there may be the reason you've had difficulty findin' gainful employment..."

    --  Delmar, Blind Seer and Ulysses
 

"You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in chains. You will find a fortune, though it will not be the one you seek. But first... first you must travel a long and difficult road, a road fraught with peril. Mm-hmm. You shall see thangs, wonderful to tell. You shall see a... a cow... on the roof of a cotton house, ha. And, oh, so many startlements. I cannot tell you how long this road shall be, but fear not the obstacles in your path, for fate has vouchsafed your reward. Though the road may wind, yea, your hearts grow weary, still shall ye follow them, even unto your salvation."

    --  Blind Seer
 

"You don't say much my friend, but when you do it's to the point, and I salute you for it.

    --  Big Dan
 

"Woooooooo-wee. Boy, that was a miiiighty fine a-pickin' and a-singin'. I'll tell you what, you come on in here and sign these papers here and I'm a gonna you ten dollars a piece."
"Uh, okay sir. But Murt and Aloysius will have to sign Xes as only four of us can write."

    --  Lund and Ulysses
 

"You ruined my life!"
"I do apologize about that Pete."

    --  Pete and Ulysses
 

"I am a man of constant sorrow."

    --  Ulysses
