- Marshall Chris Adams: Tell me everything you know about him. What he likes, how he acts, everything.
- Laurie Gunn: Well, ah, the first thing you notice about him are... his eyes. They tell you that he is mad. Crazy mad.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: That's all we're taking?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Yeah.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: Let's get more men.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Seven's always been my lucky number.
- [Mark leaves the room with his arms around three women]
- Mark Skinner: Chris, did I ever tell you I was born in Salt Lake? I'm a Mormon!
- Marshall Chris Adams: Judge Parker told me once, "The men I hang never killed again. There are plenty I didn't hang, did." Now you tell me he was wrong.
- Padre: God works in strange ways.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Yeah, I know. He's got me confused most of the time, too.
- [last lines]
- [Laurie convinces Chris to stay with her]
- Marshall Chris Adams: Skinner, you've just been demoted to deputy.
- Mark Skinner: Yell, well that figures. I wouldn't have had much time for work anyway.
- Capt Andy Hayes: They say if a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, there's a question of whether it made any noise. If none of us lives to tell about this, can be covered in glory?
- Noah Forbes, Writer: The name's Noah Forbes, Marshal. I've decided to do for you what Ned Buntline did for Bill Cody.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Make a damn fool of me?
- Noah Forbes, Writer: Make you famous.
- Marshall Chris Adams: You're a writer?
- Noah Forbes, Writer: You name a big city newapaper and I've worked on it.
- Marshall Chris Adams: That means you're pretty good - or you can't hold a job.
- Capt Andy Hayes: All right, what's your plan?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Oh, I figured we'd just ride in there and shoot down anyone carrying a gun.
- Marshall Chris Adams: [Leaving the Cantina with Laurie after personally making Skinner the town sheriff] I won't be coming this way again. The sheriff's an old enemy of mine.
- Laurie Gunn: Oh, I bet if you behaved yourself, you wouldn't get into any trouble.
- Marshall Chris Adams: By then, we should have a third to a half his men, and only lost a few of us.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: I wish you'd stop saying that!
- Noah Forbes, Writer: Dead?
- Noah Forbes, Writer: [shakes his head yes, Chris starts to dismount] Don't go, Chris. Don't.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Did they use her?
- [Noah shakes his head yes]
- Marshall Chris Adams: Raped, killed and left for the buzzards.
- Marshall Chris Adams: [opens door, Arilla laying on the bed] I'm glad you didn't lock it.
- Arrila: I figured you'd break it down if I did.
- Marshall Chris Adams: I've crossed that border three times to fight bandits. I ain't goin' down there again.
- Arrila: He's only a boy.
- Marshall Chris Adams: He had a man's wants when he was robbin'. And he didn't spend the money he stole on grub for his family. He spent it on women, liquor and cards. And then, when he's caught, he calls himself a boy again.
- Bob Allen: Was we wrong wantin' to get away from that?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Get away from it wasn't wrong. It's how you did it that was wrong.
- Arrila: I'm not asking you to help gunfighters.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Judge Parker said to me once, "The men I hanged never killed again, but plenty that I didn't hang did. " You tell me he's wrong.
- Arrila: He wasn't talking about a boy who robbed a store.
- Marshall Chris Adams: I've buried a lot of friends who thought fuzzy-faced kids weren't dangerous.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: Hey, don't die just ridin' along. That'd be a real anticlimax. On the other hand, we could say you left your deathbed, just died on the trail. That has a real good ring to it. How far you figure we've come? A hundred miles? I tell you, it feels more like a thousand. Damn it, my ass hurts.
- Marshall Chris Adams: I don't owe Shelly a damn thing and I do him a big favor. I owe Jim Mackay a lot and I don't do anything for him. I can't seem to do anything right.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: The battle of Adobe Walls. What was that like?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Well, there were 28 of us. Bat Masterson, me, Billy Dixon, one woman. Rest of 'em were buffalo hunters. Quanah Parker had 600 Comanches.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: 28 against 600? That's great! What happened?
- Marshall Chris Adams: We had a hell of a fight.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: And?
- Marshall Chris Adams: We won.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: Sure been a lot of killin' since I met you. Well, shall we bury 'em?
- Marshall Chris Adams: The livin' need us more. There can't be anything left in their town but the women - and De Toro.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Before De Toro hits, Jim, you'd better ride outta here. Stayin's suicide. That ain't gonna do you no good.
- Jim Mackay: Would you ride out?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Hell, no. But I wouldn't be caught in this mess to begin with.
- Jim Mackay: De Toro's on the rampage.
- Marshall Chris Adams: As usual.
- Jim Mackay: And I got nothin' behind me but a pack of good intentions. Farmers, shopkeepers. Them two I hired yesterday. Paid 'em one quarter what I offered you and they ain't worth that. As for the rest, I guess they're willin' enough to get killed, but I need killers.
- Laurie Gunn: Jim Mackay talked about you. He said you would come and help. Only you got here too late.
- Marshall Chris Adams: How are the other women?
- Laurie Gunn: Oh, God. I just hope none of us gets pregnant.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Can you tell me about it?
- Laurie Gunn: There are only 17 of us women. And, De Toro came riding in here with about 40, 50 men...
- Marshall Chris Adams: Suddenly it is not so bad, huh?
- Noah Forbes, Writer: What?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Me bein' a killer.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: No, it's turned out to be quite useful.
- Laurie Gunn: Damn you! Think of something.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Maybe I can get a few men tough enough to match De Toro.
- Warden: It don't seem right, turning 'em loose to do the very things they were put in here for doing in the first place!
- Warden: Marshall, I think you oughta know. They're not quite so tough any more. I had to do a bit of taming.
- Marshall Chris Adams: All right, we haven't got much time. Will all the women get over against that wall? The men against the bar.
- Marshall Chris Adams: You women will be workin'... .. loadin' for your men, feedin' them, taking care of 'em. And draw your own lines.
- Pepe Carral: Enough money to last me my whole lifetime. Clothes to turn any girl's eyes. Women for the taking. And I'll be dead - before I can enjoy any of it. Salud!
- Pepe Carral: [Martha's weeping] Sorry. He was a good man.
- Martha: What was his name? I - I never thought to ask. It didn't seem important. He - wasn't much for talkin'.
- Madge Buchanan: I hope you won't get angry, but I just think we have enough real problems without you hashing over your old ones.
- Noah Forbes, Writer: Butterball, you are looking at a 14-carat sharpie. A guy who's always known all the angles, none of the principles.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Tie her up.
- De Toro's Woman: Gringo desgraciado.
- [spits]
- Marshall Chris Adams: Gracias.
