Spotted Horse
[showing off old gunshot wounds]

Spotted Horse cannot be killed by a bullet! See! I've taken four bullets in my arm, three in my left leg, one in my right, and two bullets in the back. Another bullet went through my lip. Another bullet went through my left foot. And another bullet went into my head today, here, and has not even come out yet!

Townsman

We're gonna have to bury this old man deep. He stinks something awful.

Ratsy
[throwing Cort into The Kid's gun shop]

And that concludes the lessons for the day.

Ace Hanlon
[shuffling a deck of cards]

You wanna play poker with me, little lady?

Looks like you're having a pretty good time playing with yourself.

Ace Hanlon

This is a very special pack. [shows that it's all aces] See, I put an ace in every time I kill a man.

Blind Boy

John Herod owns that house. He gets 50 cents of every dollar in this town.

What's the town get?

Blind Boy'

Heh. They gets to live.

Cantrell

Sergeant Cantrell.

Shemp

How do you spell that?

Cantrell

Correctly.

Last night, The Kid. Tonight, Herod. You're a busy woman. Any man in this town you're not interested in?

Yeah: you.

[after Herod accepts the Kid's challenge]

You would fight your own son? I'm gonna kill you if I have to ride all the way to Hell to do it.

Do you have some particular problem with me?

I'll let you know.

[walking up behind saloonkeeper, who's standing on a stool with his back to the door]

How about a room?

Whores next door.

Say that again.

I said whores next door.

[kicks the stool out from under him]

: Now, do you have a room available?

Uh, room and bath, yes ma'am. Coming up!

Don't you even want to fight back?

Sure. I'd like to kill them all for what they've done. But I won't. Killing people is wrong.

Some people deserve to die.

In case you forgot preacher, I saved your life last night.

No, I think you just stretched it out a bit. I might've even gone to heaven if you'd let me die.

Sorry.
