Mitch:
You know, I read something a long time ago: Follow the rainbow... but don't wait for the gold to be in it.
Dan: Look for the silver in between. Yeah, I know - I went to school once, too. Say, what are you? Are you some kind of do-gooder or something? You want to save my soul, Mister? Mitch: No, I want a few men with anger and guts enough to follow that rainbow and grab a pot full of gold - not petty silver in-between.
