Johnny Cash: I think it's about time, June.
June Carter: Time for what?
Johnny Cash: For you and me... to get married.
June Carter: Go to sleep, John.
Johnny Cash: [playing for the inmates at Folsom prison] Once in El Paso, I had this bag of... Oh... you heard about that? You been in El Paso, too? Well, anyways, I felt tough, you know?. Like I'd seen a thing or two, you know? Well, that was till a moment ago... 'cuz I got to tell you, my hat's off to you now, 'cuz I ain't never had to drink this yellow water you got here at
Folsom!
Johnny Cash: You know when I was in the service... I used to look at pictures of you... you know, in magazines.
June Carter: [pretending to be concerned] Oh.
Johnny Cash: [with a pre-devised apology] No... Oh no, it wasn't like that. I mean, I... I liked your music, you know?
June Carter: Yeah?
Johnny Cash: Yeah... Oh yeah, I mean, you were, well, you are... I mean, l-I kept track of you. You and your family. I listened to your voice my whole life, you know? Me and my brother, Jack... we always listened to your songs. Like "Swallerin' Place."
June Carter: Yeah...
Johnny Cash: Yeah. We liked it when you'd sing one alone.
June Carter: Well, you and Jack are the only ones.
Johnny Cash: What do you mean?
June Carter: I'm not really much of a singer, Johnny. I mean, I got a lot of personality, I got sass... I give it my all, but my sister Anita's really the one who's got the pipes.
Johnny Cash: [averting his eyes] Well, who
said that?
June Carter: Everybody. My mama, my daddy. That's how come I learned to be funny... so I'd have something to offer.
June Carter: You walked here all the way from Nashville?
Johnny Cash: Yeah, well, walking is good for you...
Ray Cash: [to J.R. listening to June Carter singing on the radio] She's been in the spotlight since you and me was bitin' ankles.
Five and Dime Manager: Divorce is an abomination. Marriage is for life.
June Carter: I'm sorry I let you down, ma'am.
