Jason Smith:
Are you really a trickster?
Zachariah Coop:
Oh, I think most people are at a certain level. But remember this: you can't trick a man unless he's aiming to trick you.
Jason Smith:
How come?
Zachariah Coop:
Well, because people in general like the idea of getting something for nothing. And the trickster affords him that opportunity.

Zachariah Coop:
I'm going to give up gambling until I get you there.

Jason Smith:
How come you can speak Indian?
Zachariah Coop:
Well, my mother was the daughter of a Cherokee chief.
Jason Smith:
Really?
Zachariah Coop:
Yeah.
Jason Smith:
What was she like?
Zachariah Coop:
I don't really remember because she died two years before I was born.
