• Ulysses Bowman : You got some whiskey?

  Johnny Yuma : No, sir.

  Ulysses Bowman : Don't drink you mean?

  Johnny Yuma : Sometimes.

  Ulysses Bowman : Ah, man's answer. How tall are you, son?

  Johnny Yuma : Tall enough, I reckon. Short for some things.

  Ulysses Bowman : Churchgoing?

  Johnny Yuma : When I pass one. Ain't too often though, I guess.

  Ulysses Bowman : Huh! The Lord sent you, son! And that's a fact! You will do. Yes!

  Johnny Yuma : So?

  Ulysses Bowman : Yes!

• Ulysses Bowman : Competition get you, don't it.

  Johnny Yuma : For a man who almost got himself shot to death this morning, you're either a fool or stone blind. Or both!

  Ulysses Bowman : You think it was them, huh?

  Johnny Yuma : Now, look, you offer your girl to that hardcake and I'll break you in half with my own hands. And I mean it.

  Ulysses Bowman : Oh, now, listen, Johnny.

  Johnny Yuma : There's nothing to listen.

  Ulysses Bowman : She's an old maid. You can't deny that. And I'm her Pa.

  Johnny Yuma : Does it make any difference to you that she just heard you?

  Ulysses Bowman : Do you good. Face up to things.

• Johnny Yuma : I don't understand what kind of man treats his daughter like you have. Without dignity, or respect, or love. I'm ashamed to know you, Mr Bowman.

• Felicity Bowman : It's been such a long time since gentle lips touched me.

  Johnny Yuma : Key to your heart? What's wrong?

  Felicity Bowman : It's the key to the Hope Chest.

• Felicity Bowman : Who's gonna love me with a nasty old man running around acting like I ain't worth fifty cents.

  Johnny Yuma : Felicity, you know the right man ain't gonna care about silk dresses, or fancy shoes, or a dowry.

  Felicity Bowman : How am I gonna be sure?
