- Adam Cartwright: I found you in a cantina. And believe me, no Spanish lady ever behaved the way you did.
- Adam Cartwright: Senorita De La Cuesta?
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: Now begins the inquisition.
- Adam Cartwright: Call it that if you like.
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: No, I don't like. I think it's a very ugly word.
- Adam Cartwright: Ugly? Then what do you call throwing people off their land?
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: Is it their land or mine?
- Adam Cartwright: It's theirs. By the work and sweat they put into it.
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: And do you hold your land by sweat or by a deed of trust?
- Adam Cartwright: By both.
- Ben Cartwright: [to Sheriff Hawkins] They talk of the lawlessness of the West. Well, this is lawlessness backed up by law! They're evicting families, throwing them out of their homes, killing men - and you protect them!
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: They cannot have what is mine.
- Adam Cartwright: Well, you know you'll never enjoy this land. There'll be too much blood on it.
- Don Antonio Luga: The Cartwrights are our main opposition. They will do everything they can to stop us.
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: Suppose we had the Cartwrights on our side?
- Don Antonio Luga: Impossible.
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: Suppose we had one of the Cartwrights on our side?
- Don Antonio Luga: Isabella, you've learned to handle men to perfection.
- Isabella Maria Ynez Y Castra De La Cuesta: Thank you. But then again, I didn't have much choice.
