Byron McElroy quotes from 3:10 to Yuma (2007)

Charlie Prince

Morning Pinkerton. Name's Charlie Prince. I expect you heard of me.

Byron McElroy

Well, I heard of a balled up whore named Charlie Princess. That you, missy?

Charlie Prince

I hate Pinkertons.

Byron McElroy

If you're gonna kill me, just as soon get to it.

Ben Wade

I ain't gonna kill you. Not like this.

Byron McElroy

Won't change a thing, lettin' me live. I'll come for you.

Ben Wade

I'd be disappointed if you didn't.

Byron McElroy

What the **** kind of doctor are you, anyway?

It's nice to have a conversation with a patient for a change.

If my pa wants to, he could shoot you dead. He can shoot a jackrabbit at 50 yards!

Dan Evans

Shooting an animal's a lot different than, uh, shooting a man, son.

Ben Wade

No, it isn't. Not in my opinion. We could ask Byron here. Now, Byron, he's killed dozens of people: Men and women and children, miners, Apache.

Byron McElroy

Not a soul taken didn't deserve what it got.

Ben Wade

Every way of man is right in his own eyes, Byron. The Lord ponders the heart. Proverbs 21.

Byron McElroy

We're taking you to Contention. Putting you on the 3:10 to Yuma day after tomorrow.

You shouldn't have told him that!

Ben Wade

Relax, friend. Now if we get separated, I know where to meet up.

Ben Wade

Byron's like a song with one note. You ever read another book in your life, Byron, besides the Bible?

Byron McElroy

No need.

Ben Wade

Byron acts pious. Few years ago, when he was under contract to Central, I seen him and a bunch of other Pinks mow down 32 Apache women and children.

Byron McElroy

Renegades... gunning down railroad men and their families. Picking 'em off the road one by one. Scalping 'em.

Ben Wade

There was young ones running around crying and screaming. No more than three years old. And his boys shot 'em all then pushed 'em into a ditch. Some of them was still crying. But I guess Byron figured that Jesus wouldn't mind. Apparently Jesus don't like the Apache.

Byron McElroy

Keep on talking... all the way to Yuma, right up them steps, to the rope, straight to Hell.

Ben Wade

Day I die, Byron, I'm getting sprung from Hell.
