Jim Slater:
Oh no, not again! You know, a man can get awful tired of bein' shot at.

Sergeant George Lake:
Are you looking for a medal?

Jim Slater:
No, I got one.

Sergeant George Lake:
I bet you would have traded it for a meal after the surrender.

Jim Slater:
How'd you guess?

Sergeant George Lake:
Oh, I fought against you rebels... all guts and no sense.

Sergeant George Lake:
I figured you for a good soldier. I should have known better. Good soldiers never volunteer.

Johnny Cool:
I notice you use a tie-down. Does that mean you're fast? Everybody west of the Pecos thinks that they're fast.

Jim Bonniwell:
You know, I've never seen it fail. When you take a trigger-happy bunch sitting it out like this, somebody's bound to start fooling with his gun.

Sheriff J.C. Marston:
When they hear about this, they're going to come looking for you.

Jim Slater:
Seems logical.

Sheriff J.C. Marston:
If it's your idea to shoot it out with them, you're going to lose.

Jim Slater:
Could be.

Sheriff J.C. Marston:
And even if you beat 'em, you're going to lose... because I'm going to hang the man that wins.

Jeff Welker:
You're going to talk and I'm going to listen.

Jim Slater:
If I did it this way, I'd deserve to be.

Jim Bonniwell:
What's on your mind?

Jim Slater:
I've spent six months looking for a killer. What do you do when he turns out to be your father?

Jim Bonniwell:
Killer? Aren't you a little careless with your words, son? Yes, I kill when I have to. But I've never killed a man who wasn't trying to kill me. And that goes for the Sheriff in spite of his badge.

Jim Slater:
There's things a man has to know and has to do, and it's best that he does them alone.
