No, nor any of my folk. If I accept to lie, steal, cheat or kill. Equally God is my witness, I'll never be hungry again!"

• Scarlett waltzing delicately into prison, wearing the finest apparel ever seen in the South, despite being a few years out of fashion, and despite the fact that she barely has coin to buy nutrient. The material of the clothes looks very much similar the late curtains at Tara...

• The impromptu ruse Rhett thinks up to make the Yankees think the gentlemen of Atlanta were not involved in the Shantytown raid. Particularly awesome is how well Melly plays along.

• "Frankly, my beloved, I don't requite a damn." Now that'southward a line worth waiting 4 hours for.
  • A bit of context: afterwards years upon years of having her own way and essentially stepping on people, Scarlett finally gets told off. The line is Rhett cementing that, no matter what she tries, Scarlett cannot win this one.
• "All nosotros got is Cotton, Slaves, and Arrogance!" speech communication.

  • Ashley declares he will fight for the South but it's a lamentable, lamentable thing if things aren't fifty-fifty attempted to be resolved peacefully while warding off whatever criticisms of his more than hot-blooded peers and gently telling Charles that there is no manner he'd win in a fight with Rhett when the latter was accused of cowardice.

If anyone just Melanie had washed so, they would have been made just as much an outcast every bit Scarlett; but as things go, Melanie's unyielding defense of her friend sparks a miniature civil war in the town. Her speech is almost enough to make the reader believe that Scarlett is a good person.

Despite the hellish situation he'southward in he manages to be in a fabulous mood, cheer the md on when he rants about the yankees ("Give them hell, doctor!") and even shows Scarlett sympathy for the predicament she'south in.
• Large Sam rescuing Scarlett from two men that are trying to rape her. Keep in mind, at beginning he doesn't even know it's his former owner (who he does still hold some amore for) calling for assist. All he hears is a woman in distress and immediately jumps into activity, not caring if she'southward black or white. He takes out of of the men with one punch and throws the other into the creek afterwards a struggle. In the volume, he even offers to get dorsum and beat them up worse if she wants him to.
