Quotes from The Searchers

I plan to use these quotes in my paper.

"Humans ride a horse until it dies then goes on foot Comanche comes along gets there horse up rides him 20 more miles and eats him" Ethan

"Two sons killed by white man for each son I take many scalps" Scar

"This are my people" Debbie

"Fetch what home? The leavings a Comanche buck sold time and again to the highest bidder with savage brats of her own?" Laura

"They ain't white not anymore they are Comanche" Ethan

  1. I like the last quote it shows the racism that Ethan had for the comanche indians. It shows who he really is as a character. I also like the first quote about the comanche riding the horses then eating them. Again, this proves that Ethan hates Indians.

  2. the quote that debbie said was very interesting. In the movie I thought it was wierd that she did not want to be rescued. But after thinking about it, that is all she has every known, maybe she was scared and did not want to provoke the indians into killing her.
