Quotes:

John O'Hanlan: Well, how much time do I have?::Marshal Anderson: Oh, three days at the most. They live quite a ways out of town. But trouble rides a fast horse!

John O'Hanlan: I suppose you've come to see me about that little thing last night.::Marshal Anderson: That wasn't any little thing you did, O'Hanlan. That was a Bannister you shot. I've been wanting to do it for years.

Harley Sullivan: I've eaten mighty good food in my life, but this weren't part of it.::Cook: Yeah, well, I ain't heard no complaints from none of the others.::Harley Sullivan: Yeah, well, they ain't as well-bred as I am.

Harley Sullivan: I remember when I was about twelve years old. My daddy asked me, he says, "What do you want to be when you grow up, Little Harley?" And like a damn fool, I said a cowboy. I've been making wrong moves ever since.

John O'Hanlan: How much money do you want, Harley?::Harley Sullivan: Fifteen or twenty dollars ought to do me.::John O'Hanlan: What do you need it for?::Harley Sullivan: Things.::John O'Hanlan: Well, what kind of things?::Harley Sullivan: Just-just things. You know, like a drink of whiskey if I wanted it, or a new shirt or something.::John O'Hanlan: You already have two shirts. You don't want to wear but one of them at a time unless it's winter.::Harley Sullivan: There you go thinking like a Republican again.::John O'Hanlan: Well, you don't bring up politics while you're borrowing money, Harley. It ain't seemly!

John O'Hanlan: When you're out on the range with nobody to talk to most of the time but your horse, you do a lot of dreaming. And I dreamed of being a man of property. But you know... you know Mr. Willoughby, and I didn't realize it then, but I've always been a man of property. I have my horse. I have my blanket and I have the whole West to ride in. How could a man own more than that? No, Mr. Willoughby, I'm a cowboy. Always have been... I know now I always will be.

Jenny: When I was young, I had all sorts of dreams. There's something awfully sad about an old dream.::John O'Hanlan: Yeah, I know. When I was a boy down in the panhandle, that was before I slipped my hobbles, I was a real stargazer. I tell you, Jenny, I dreamed and I planned big things. And then I started drifting... and I've been drifting ever since.

Harley Sullivan: I thought you know me better than that, John, after all the years we rode together.::John O'Hanlan: Well, I guess it just goes to prove that you never really know a man until the chips are down and you need him the most.

John O'Hanlan: Well, how much money does he need to get her liver fixed?::Jenny: Five hundred dollars.::John O'Hanlan: Five hundred dollars for a liver?::Jenny: That's what the big doctor in Chicago charges. And he's got all kinds of fancy letters in back of his name.::John O'Hanlan: I don't care what's in back of his name! Five hundred dollars - that's more than you have to pay for a good horse!

Harley Sullivan: I've never known it before, John, but a good gunfight sure makes a man hungry.
