Ruby Gentry: You can get a job, and I can work. We don't need the McAuliffe's money!
Boake Tackman: Ruby, I'm not talking about earning a living. For a hundred years the Tackmans have been sliding downhill.

I'm not gonna' end up like him. I'm gonna' do things that'll shake this whole town awake. Shake the whole Tidewater. Things I can be proud of
