Mary Kate: It’s a bold one, you are! Who gave you leave to be kissin’ me?
Thornton: So you can talk!
Mary Kate: Yes I can, I will, and I do! And it’s more than talk you’ll be gettin’ if you step a step closer to me!
Thornton: Don’t worry – you’ve got a wallop!
Mary Kate: You’ll get over it, I’m thinkin.’
Thornton: Well, some things a man doesn’t get over so easy.
Mary Kate: Like what, supposin’?
Thornton: Like the sight of a girl coming through the fields with the sun on her hair... kneeling in church with a face like a saint…
Mary Kate: Saint, indeed!
Thornton: ...and now coming to a man’s house to clean it for him.
Mary Kate: But... that was just my way of bein’ a good Christian act.
Thornton: I know it was, Mary Kate Danaher. And it was nice of you.
Mary Kate: Not at all.
