• Sam Houston : What brings you beyond the Pecos?

  Thomas Craden : [Confronting Houston and Burke]  I was chasing a renegade but instead I found two!

• Sam Houston : Three times Texas has stood like a bride at the alter and three times she's been denied. Well, there is a thing called pride. And we Texans have our full measure.

• Devereaux Burke : What about the treaty with Mexico?

  Sam Houston : Oh, that. That was only to build fear in the minds of those who barred the gates to us. Those idiots in Washington who've set their hands against us because of our slaves!
