There Will Be Blood Quote

Plainview : Eli! Tragedy at the well last night.
Eli Sunday : Yes, I heard.
Plainview : Joe Ghunda was a man of considerable faith, so if you wish to say a few words, his burial's at noon, tomorrow.
Eli Sunday : Daniel, this accident could have been avoided. It is terrible to think of that well working away out there, unblessed...
Plainview : Yes it could have. These men are working twelve hour shifts and they need their rest. If they don't have it, they start to make stupid mistakes...
Eli Sunday : I've seen some of the men drinking. Don't you think that has something to do with it...
Plainview : We need these men well rested to bring in this well. They can't get that if they're up here listening to your gospel, and then the well can't produce and blow gold all over the place...
Eli Sunday : I wish I had more time with Joe Ghunda. More could have been done...
Plainview : And then the well can't produce, and blow gold all over the place. Now, would you see to it that his personal possession's find their way back to his family, please? Thank you. Heard you were planning some renovations?
Eli Sunday : Yes. Our congregation is growing strongly. We need more room.
Plainview : Well, that was one goddamn helluva show. [ chuckles and walks off ]
Eli Sunday : We were happy to have you, Daniel.
