Frank : Morton once told me I could never be like him. Now I understand why. Wouldn't have bothered him, knowing you were around somewhere alive.
Harmonica : So, you found out you're not a businessman after all.
Frank : Just a man.
Harmonica : An ancient race. Other Mortons'll be along, and they'll kill it off.
Frank : The future don't matter to us. Nothing matters now - not the land, not the money, not the woman. I came here to see you, 'cause I know that now you'll tell me what you're after.
Harmonica : Only at the point of dyin'.

Frank : You've made a big mistake, Morton. When you're not on that train, you look like a turtle out of its shell. It's funny. Poor cripple talkin' big so nobody'll know how scared ya are.

Frank : Any normal man would put a bullet in his brain.
-
Frank : I'm beginning to think I might be a little sorry killing you. You like being alive. You also like to feel a man's hands all over you. You like it. Even if they're the hands of the man who killed your husband. What a - what a little tramp.

Frank : Now I understand why they miss you so much down there in New Orleans. Great invention, the telegraph. "Jill? The brunette? My God, all the customers of the most elegant whorehouse on Bourbon Street have been weeping ever since she left."
