• [after Breezy is wounded in a shootout with gangsters, the D.A. orders him to convalesce at his father's Wyoming ranch] 

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : OK, Chief, if you think the department can get along without me.

  New York City Dist. Atty. Brent : Oh-ho, the department will probably go to pieces.

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : Yeah, that's what I was afraid of!

  New York City Dist. Atty. Brent : Oh, if it does, I'll save you a piece.

• [the Owens gang has just shot Martin Kildare] 

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : The Owens mob just left here - they got my dad.

  Rancher : What?

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : You men follow the road... we're going to take the short cut and head 'em off at the rocks!

• Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : [punches Owens]  So you're tough, eh?

  [punches him again] 

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : You can dish it out, but you can't take it! Well, you're in a country now where you got to take it. Here's a little of what you gave to me!

  [hits him again] 

  B.H. 'Butch' Owens : Don't I get a break?

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : You bet you don't! There's no lawyers here to pull a habeus corpus... but there's a gang here who can pull a rope! Get up.

  B.H. 'Butch' Owens : Give me a break!

  Walrus : Surrre, we'll give you a break. We'll give you a rope and a tree that ain't never been used before.

• [rather than face a hangman's rope, Butch shoots himself] 

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : Still yellow, Butch. You couldn't take it.

• [last lines] 

  Ruth Carter : [reads Breezy's train ticket]  Cheyenne to New York.

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : Yep, back to the big town. Now that Dad's well again, there's nothing to keep me here.

  Ruth Carter : I wish it read the other way.

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : You mean Broadway to Cheyenne?

  Ruth Carter : Uh-huh.

  Jimmy 'Breezy' Kildare : Shucks, there's no sense my going then... alone.

  Ruth Carter : Unh-uh.
