• Bradley : So that's Quirt Evans. He's quite a man with the gals. He's closed the eyes of many a man... and opened the eyes of many a woman.

• [last lines] 

  Bradley : [the marshal picks up Quirt's gun]  Hey, Quirt might need that!

  Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : No. Only a man that carries a gun ever needs one.

  Bradley : What are you going to do with it?

  Territorial Marshal Wistful McClintock : Hang it on a wall in my office - with a new rope.

• [Bradley has come into the saloon and tells Laredo that Quirt's waiting for him. Laredo gets up and pours himself a drink] 

  Laredo Stevens : Well, they say a cat's got nine lives. Maybe old Quirt's part cat.

  Bradley : He also said he was curious to know how much whiskey it would take... to build up your nerve to come out.

  Hondo Jeffries : You're fixin' to get your ears pinned back.

  Laredo Stevens : There's a better pair of ears out in the street if you wanna pin somebody's ears back!

  [hands the glass to Bradley] 

  Laredo Stevens : Here, you drink this.

  Bradley : Sure... if I don't have to stand near ya.

  Laredo Stevens : Come on.

  Hondo Jeffries : I wonder if that sharpshootin' marshal's around town?

  Bradley : Oh, I saw him ride out of town an hour ago.

  Hondo Jeffries : That's good. I wouldn't want him around here to spoil our play.

  Laredo Stevens : Yeah. I bet that's just exactly how you meant that.

• Quirt Evans : [Bradley is in the street, Quirt rides up slowly and dismounts]  Know Laredo Stevens?

  Bradley : He's in the Eagle, and that pistol whippin' Hondo's with 'im!

  Quirt Evans : [grimly]  Take 'im a message.
