Paul Brinegar: Wishbone

Quotes 

• Wishbone : What are you doing getting all doodled up? You ain't pretending you know any girls.

  Mushy : Oh no, Mr Wishbone. I got cousins in town. My Ma said if we come through Buffalo Wells that I should look up Cousin Laverne and Cousin Posey.

  Wishbone : You're getting all doodled up and shaved just to see a couple of cousins?

  Mushy : Well, Cousin Laverne is an important female. She's an actress.

  Wishbone : No. Oh, you're telling me a windie, Mushy. There isn't any theatre in Buffalo Wells.

  Mushy : Oh, yes, you must be mistaken, Mr Wishbone, begging your pardon. But she acts in a big theatre called the Longhorn.

  Wishbone : You poor beknighted idiot. That's a saloon.

• Wishbone : Anybody who lays a hand on Mushy, except me of course, has got me to answer to.

• Jim Quince : Well, look, Boss, when a man works like a span of mules all day, why, well, he's entitled to some decent grub.

  Wishbone : You wouldn't think that growed men would make such a fuss over not getting biscuits one time.

• Wishbone : She's barely 15.

  Gil Favor : Nice age for a girl.

  Wishbone : Mr Favor, take a good look at her. How'd you like it if your daughter was in a fix like this a couple of years from now?
