It's not like there's a line between the good people and the bad people. It is not like you're one or the other.

Mickey: Think her family's gonna be okay that you're a white guy?
Sgt. Cliff: They think any woman over 30 who isn't married is a lesbian. She figures, they'll be so relieved that I'm a man...
Mickey: Yeah, it's always heartwarming to see a prejudice defeated by a deeper prejudice.

Chucho Montoya: You're the sheriff of Rio County, right?
Un jefe mui respectado. [drawing a line in the sand] Step across this line. You're not the sheriff of nothing anymore, just some
tejano with a lot of questions I don't have to answer. A bird flying south, you think he sees this line? Rattlesnake?
Javelina? Whatever you got. You think halfway across that line they start thinking different? Why should a man?
Sheriff Sam Deeds: Your government's always been pretty happy to have that line, the question's just been where to draw it.
Chucho Montoya: My government can go fuck itself, and so can yours! I'm talking about people here. Men.
