Quotes 

• Morris G. Stevens : I'm a philologist, I, ah, study languages.

  Rowdy Yates : What kind of languages?

  Morris G. Stevens : Indian, Pueblo, Comanche. You know you would never believe this, it's fantastic, but did you know there are no Comanche dictionaries?

  Mushy : Well, I'll be.

  Morris G. Stevens : So I came out here to compile one.

  Wishbone : What for?

  Morris G. Stevens : Oh, so people could communicate with the tribesmen.

  Gil Favor : Mr Stevens, if you open your mouth to speak to a Comanche, you'd have your throat slit before you got two words out.

  Morris G. Stevens : Well, maybe not, if they understood the words. I think it's important for people to understand people.

  Wishbone : Well, I think you oughta practise what you preach.

• Wishbone : Well, I'd mighty well rather a Commanche skin me, than Mr Favor.
