Warning! SPOILERS For Yellowstone Season 5, Episode 14, "Life Is A Promise"The perfect quote to encapsulate who Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) is as a character in Yellowstone.

Beth Dutton reminds me of Elsa Dutton (Isabel May) in 1883 and Spencer Dutton (Brandon Sklenar) in 1923. Like her counterparts, Beth is intrepid. While James Dutton (Tim McGraw), Jacob Dutton (Harrison Ford), and John Dutton (Kevin Costner) run the operations in their respective Yellowstone shows, they are not the series’ muses so much as the most spirited child of the next generation. Therefore, Beth is the perfect choice to continue the Dutton family’s story in the Beth and Rip Yellowstone spinoff, which can expand her spirited list of quotes from the flagship.

“I Believe In Lovin’ With Your Whole Soul” Perfectly Sums Up Yellowstone's Beth Dutton

"I Believe In Lovin' With Your Whole Soul And Destroying Anything That Wants To Kill What You Love"

Beth’s insight into loving with her whole soul defines the character, especially when quoted fully. In Yellowstone season 3, episode 10, Beth tells Rip Wheeler (Cole Ha), “I believe in lovin’ with your whole soul and destroying anything that wants to kill what you love.” John Dutton’s daughter is fierce for the sake of those dear to her, and her season 3 remarks perfectly encapsulate Beth’s fighting yet nurturing spirit. Her defining quote foreshadows Beth's Yellowstone season 5 ending, wherein she kills her brother, Jamie (Wes Bentley), for playing a role in the murder of her father.

Beth wears her heart on her sleeve, and it is one of my favorite things about her.

This quote from Yellowstone season 3 is a remarkably succinct insight into what to expect from Beth Dutton. Some of Beth Dutton's best Yellowstone quotes are her insults to those she disapproves of or her fiery remarks during business deals. More than anything, Beth’s "I believe in lovin'" quote encapsulates the duality of her spirited remarks, making it an iconic line by John's daughter. Beth has dozens upon dozens of remarks throughout the show, making her probably the most quotable character in Yellowstone, if not the entire franchise.

What Made Beth Dutton Such A Quotable Yellowstone Character

Beth Dutton Maintains One Quality Throughout Yellowstone

Beth is such a quotable Yellowstone character because she is dauntless in her unfiltered remarks to her peers. In other words, Beth wears her heart on her sleeve, and it is one of my favorite things about her. Ultimately, almost everything Beth says somehow encomes the extremes of her demeanor. That said, her dialogue often touches on Beth’s soft side as well. However, it simultaneously highlights her brazen qualities, which define her role in Taylor Sheridan's neo-Western.

Beth isn’t always fighting on the front lines like her brother, Kayce (Luke Grimes), or her husband, but she makes savvy business deals that the overall fate of the ranch, showing little mercy to those she targets with her attacks. On the flip side, like her husband, Beth is particularly loyal and caring to those who have earned her trust and endearment, with Rip and John Dutton being the best examples. While Elsa is my favorite Dutton overall, Beth stands out in Yellowstone because she encapsulates the gritty Dutton brand.
