• Johnny Yuma : Doesn't the school board have to put it to a vote first?

  Liam O'Shea : You're, ah, you're lookin' at the school board.

  Johnny Yuma : Well, how 'bout that big noise I just rubbed up against?

  Liam O'Shea : Cal Armbruster? What about him?

  Johnny Yuma : Well, I don't think he's going to like this.

  Liam O'Shea : You know, lad, the very same thought occurred to me.

• Liam O'Shea : It appears that you might be shoppin' for employment.

  Johnny Yuma : Yeah.

  Liam O'Shea : You can read and write, that much I know... and I'm assumin' you can count to ten without losin' your way. What's left you can get from the textbooks. Sure, lad, its the post of schoolmaster I'm offerin' ya.

• Liam O'Shea : Near as I can make it, it will cost you $2.25 to mail the package.

  Johnny Yuma : Phew! Can you weigh it up about one dollar ten cents worth.

• Liam O'Shea : If ever you feel the Irish to do a paragraph in Grizzly Hills, you'll not neglect to mention the Postmaster that goes by the name of Liam O'Shea.

• Peggy O'Shea : Well, you'll take dinner with us. You can't say no to Roast Venison and Huckleberry Pie.

  Johnny Yuma : [in his best Dublin accent]  Sure now. Would Lord Bryon decline such an invitation?

• Johnny Yuma : Resign? You wouldn't bust me loose from this gig with a scatter gun.
