     Otis said: "Hard to breathe in there, huh?"
     Boyd stopped grinning as Otis turned to him, Boyd saying, "I don't think you shoulda done that."
     "Fourty years in mines," Otis said, "the whole time yes-sirin these company pimps. Well, not no more."

     "You bet," Pervis said. "I'm hungry enough to eat the ass out of a skunk."

     "You know you got a coffee pot on the stove has a gun in it?"
     "For varmints," Pervis said.
     "It's a .38."
     "For big varmint."
     p. 163
