Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : [after Marshal McClintock shoots Laredo and Hondo] Nothin' ever works out right. I had them dead to rights. They'd got the Baker stage - so I figured I'd watch the ruckus. You'd down them and I'd hang you. Sorta killing three 'hawks' with one stone, so to speak. Nothin'... nothin' ever works out right.
[Quirt picks up Penny and then sits in the back of the wagon with her on his lap]
Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : Well, I missed you again, Quirt. But I'm patient. It's only a matter of time and I hang you.
Quirt Evans : Not me, Mister. From now on, I'm a farmer.

Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : You know, Quirt, I always figured on using a new rope when hangin' you... because I kind of respected ya. You never took the best of things and all your men went down looking at ya.

Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : When are you and Laredo Stevens going to get around to killing one another?

Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : C'mere, Jughead, you dollar-and-a-half brush-jumper!
[he mounts]
Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : Well, I guess I missed you again, Quirt. But I'm patient. That's what hangs all you fellas in the end - I'm patient.

Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : There's a sight I never thought I'd see: Quirt Evans behind a plow.
Quirt Evans : That pony walks as soft as you do.
Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : I taught him. Oh, I figured you'd have heard him... 'cept you were thinkin' too hard.
Quirt Evans : Haven't you got some real important business to attend to... some place else?
