Lawman's Conscience (1961)

Henry Fonda: Chief Marshal Simon Fry

Quotes 

• Clay McCord : Every time I arrest somebody, I'm goin' to say to myself, "Am I makin' another mistake?"

  Marshal Simon Fry : That's goin' to be a problem, Clay, I'll grant ya, but there's problems in every job. You face 'em; you fight 'em. You went to a lot of trouble to prove that Albee done the killin'. Maybe next time, you're gonna have to take more time, more trouble.

• [Clay whirls towards the sound of a horseman rapidly approaching] 

  Marshal Simon Fry : Whoa, Clay! It's against the law for deputies to take potshots at chief marshals.

• [last lines] 

  Marshal Simon Fry : I'll take the first watch. You ought to sleep real good knowin' you have a clear conscience in ya.

  Clay McCord : You're the boss, Marshal.
