• Clay Cook : Why didn't you shoot, Curtis?

  Jeff Curtis : Same reason I wouldn't let your uncle kill the dog. You might be useful on this trip.

• Jeff Curtis : We might as well get this straight right now. You give all the orders you want, but not to me. I don't work for you.

  Cyrus Cook : You've been hired...

  Jeff Curtis : I was hired, but not by you! The minute I take over responsibility for this wagon train, I'm working for every man, woman and child in it. I'll see that you get where you're going. That's my job.

• Ann Wilkins : We're very grateful to you for what you did.

  Jeff Curtis : [referring to the beating he just gave to Ann's boyfriend, Clay]  Oh, I guess somebody would have had to do it to him sooner or later.

  Jeff Curtis : [rubbing his jaw]  It wasn't all one-sided.

  Ann Wilkins : I meant we're grateful for bringing Ben home!

  Jeff Curtis : Oh. Well, that was a pleasure, too.

• Jeff Curtis : Did you make this?

  Ann Wilkins : I did. As good as pheasant, Mr. Curtis?

  Jeff Curtis : Better.

  Ben Wilkins : [to his dog]  Come on, Buzz. Some roughneck.

• Jeff Curtis : Wagons west!
