Can someone give me the *complete* and correct quote from GWTW when Ashley (I believe) is talking about Tara (in the past) and how it only wants to be beautiful?

ASHLEY: Tara, the red earth of Tara.
Mr. O'HARA: That land's the only thing that matters, it's
the only thing that lasts.
ASHLEY: Something you love better than me, though you
may not know it, Tara.
Mr. O'HARA: ...From which you get your strength...
ASHLEY: ... the red earth of Tara.
Mr. O'HARA: Lands the only thing that matters...
ASHLEY: something you love better than me...
Mr. O'HARA plus
ASHLEY: ...the red earth of
Tara...Tara!... Tara!... Tara!
SCARLETT: Tara! Home. I'll go home. And I'll think of
some way to get him back. After all, tomorrow is another
day!

ASHLEY
What do you think becomes of people when their
civilization breaks up? Those who have brains and
courage come through all right. Those who haven't are
winnowed out.
SCARLETT
For Heaven's sake Ashley Wilkes. Don't stand there
talking nonsense at me when it's us who are being
winnowed out.
ASHLEY
You're right, Scarlett. Here I am talking tummy-rot
about civilization, when your Tara's in danger. You
come to me for help and I have no help to give you.
Oh, Scarlett, I'm a coward.
SCARLETT
You, Ashley, a coward? What are you afraid of?
ASHLEY
Oh, mostly of life becoming too real for me, I
suppose. Not that I mind splitting rails. But I do
mind very much losing the beauty of that, that life I
loved. If the war hadn't come, I'd have spent my life
happily buried at Twelve Oaks. But the war did come.
I saw my boyhood friends blown to bits. I saw men
crumple3 up in agony when I shot them. And now I find
myself in a world which for me is worse than death. A
world in which there is no place for me. Oh, I can
never make you understand, because you don't know the
meaning of fear. You never mind facing realities. And
you never want to escape from them as I do

Gerald O'Hara: Do you mean to tell me, Katie Scarlett O'Hara, that Tara, that land doesn't mean anything to you? Why, land is the only thing in the world worth workin' for, worth fightin' for, worth dyin' for, because it's the only thing that lasts.
