Quotes 

• Frank Wheatly : Dan, the reason I - stopped - I want you to try and understand - I just wanted to live like a human being again. A normal, ordinary life.

  Dan Slater : Normal? Eight hours in the schoolroom? Noodles for dinner?

  Frank Wheatly : Yes. And trust instead of blackmail. Building instead of corrupting. But, lying is a way of life. Or, suspecting everyone until you start questioning your own thoughts. It's a sickness. Professional paranoia that makes the whole world and everyone in it ugly.

• Frank Wheatly : I didn't come back to ask you to forgive Dan Slater. He has no need of it and he doesn't want it. In his world you don't admit mistakes and you don't offer any apologies. You simply win or you lose. There's nothing in-between.

• Frank Wheatly : What are we heading into?

• Frank Wheatly : What happened?

  "Dan Slater" : It was a duck blind. I was the duck.

• Andrew Miller : Why didn't you go back to the farmhouse with him?

  Frank Wheatly : He didn't want me to.

  Andrew Miller : It don't add. He goes back alone? Gunning? Hell, it isn't Slater.

  Frank Wheatly : It was Slater, alright.

• Frank Wheatly : He might still be on the mountain.

  Andrew Miller : Doing what? Building a snowman?
