Henry Drummond: Now then, why is Celie marrying you?Arthur McKenzie: Because she love...Henry Drummond: [cutting him off] Because she's homely as a lemon and just as sneaky as her old lady, and every man sets foot in this house needs just one look to figure it ain't worth 40,000 acres and a soft spot for the rest of his life. [looking at Arthur for a reaction] Is that what you were going to say?Arthur McKenzie: [after a thoughtful pause] Yes, sir.Henry Drummond: Arthur, I want you to light out of that window right there... and shimmy down the rain pipe and get on my horse and get the hell and gone away from us and your old man as far as you can get... [he gives him money]... and don't waste any time, Arthur. There's a whole world waitin' for you out there. Good places and bad places... nice people and some not so nice. Look them all over, Arthur. Bide your time and maybe somewhere, someplace, you'll find a real woman. A good woman... Now get! [they shake hands]
