“Eat supper, breakfast in camp, but SLEEP WITH THE SHEEP, hundred percent, NO FIRE, don’t leave NO sign.”

From the short story
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

Ennis (to Jack's parents):  "I come by to say that if you want me to take his ashes up there on Brokeback like his wife said he wanted, I'd be proud to."  [screenplay]

Jack knew that Aguirre would be his jinx if he stuck around in Signal.

The boys had a legitimate gripe against Aguirre for forcing them to violate Forest Service regulations.

"N" is noches

In the screenplay, lonely Jack - in Mexico - sips tequila from a shot glass, doesn't order another, and the Mexican bartender says "Buenos noches, señor," as Jack walks to the door.

Jack and Ennis gave each over the once-over outside Aguirre's trailor.

Estás perdiendo el tiempo
Pensando, pensando
Por lo que más tú quieras
¿Hasta cuándo? ¿Hasta cuándo?

Y así pasan los días
Y yo, desesperando
Y tú, tú contestando
Quizás, quizás, quizás
