- Josh Bean: Well, for a young fellow who will work and stay out of trouble, there are plenty of opportunities here - good businesses to go into.
- Roy Bean: Well, there's a business I'd like to go into.

- [discussing Collins]
- Josh Bean: Roy, listen to me. He's been courting Gloria Chavez and he's the toughest man in town.

- [Collins cocks his pistol after catching Roy breaking out of jail]
- Collins: This is the last we're going to see of you. Now get on that horse and get out of town and don't you ever come back!
- Roy Bean: You mean you're not going to turn me in or nothin'?
- Collins: No, I just want to get you far away from Gloria.
- Roy Bean: Aw, you could have saved yourself a lot of trouble. They were going to put me away for ten years for pluggin' you.
- Collins: Well, it was a fair fight. You got in a lucky shot, but you beat me. Ain't no justice in your going to jail for it, law or no law. Besides, with your luck, they'da let you go and you'd still be in my hair!
- Roy Bean: Collins, you and me, we got a real sense of justice.
- Collins: Aw now, git.
