But even a medicine man like myself has to have some money, because you force me to live in your make-believe world where I can't get along without it.

About This Quote

A medicine man is a person who performs a ceremony to cure a sickness or a disease. A medicine man can heal, but he can also cause harm. In this quote from the movie "The Road Warrior," the medicine man says that he needs to have money so he can afford to live in his make-believe world. In the real world, however, the medicine man would have to deal with people--and their problems--who don't have money. He might also have to give up living in his make-believe world and accept that there is no cure for their ills.
