Larry Hagman: J.R. Ewing

Quotes 

• J.R. Ewing : [warned by Harv Smithfield not to try bribing a judge]  I've already lost John Ross. I'm going to do everything in my power to get him back. Everything, Harv.

• J.R. Ewing : So, Pam, I believe the choice is yours.

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : I know that it appears as if I've been dragging my feet on this decision. Miss Nero, I apologize if I've complicated matters for you or your company.

  Angelica Nero : It all depends on your answer, of course.

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : Well, I'm cautious. And since I'm a relative newcomer to the oil business, I wanted to be sure that I had the best possible information upon which to base my decision.

  J.R. Ewing : [speaking down]  Well now, we realize that you are new at this, but... Miss Nero would like to let her office know if we're in or out before its closing today.

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : Everything I've reviewed supports the fact that this co-venture would be good for Ewing Oil.

  [all regard her with baited breath] 

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : This may be a first, I agree with J.R. I think we should move ahead with the project.

  J.R. Ewing : [went smoothly, obviously expected it not to]  Well, thanks, Pam.

  Angelica Nero : So we can instruct our attorneys to draw up the agreement then?

  J.R. Ewing : [jovial]  Yes, the sooner the better!
