Quotes 

• Eli Sunday : You are a stupid man, Abel. You've let someone come in here and walk all over us. You let him in and do his work here, and you are a stupid man for what we could have had.

  Abel Sunday : I followed His word, Eli. I tried.

  Eli Sunday : You didn't do anything but sit down. You're lazy and you're stupid. Do you think God is going to save you for being stupid? He doesn't save stupid people, Abel.

  [Eli clambers across the table and slams Abel to the ground] 

  Eli Sunday : I will tear you apart for what you've done, you stupid man! How did he come here? Do you even know? I know!

  Abel Sunday : Son, don't do this, please!

  Eli Sunday : Be quiet!

  Abel Sunday : Please! Don't!

  Eli Sunday : Shut your mouth, Abel! It was your stupid son! It was Paul who told him to come here. I know it. He went to him, and he said "My stupid, weak father will give away his lots. Go and take him." - and you let it happen.

  [lets go of Abel] 

  Eli Sunday : From a stupid father to a stupid son.
