Quotes:

[first lines]::Martha Evans: What on earth are they doing?::Charles Ellsworth: It's called bulldogging, ma'am. That's Bulldog Burnett. He works for my outfit.::Hilary Price: Well, it's a perfectly silly way to handle cattle if you ask me.

Charles Ellsworth: I can tell by your speech that you're from England. May I ask what brought you to our fair shore?::Hilary Price: A ship.

[Ellsworth hopes to entertain Martha without Sam's interference]::Charles Ellsworth: Now look, Sam, be short, be polite and then be on your way.

Hilary Price: How are you getting along with Vindicator, Mr. Burnett?::Sam Burnett: We're not gettin' along with him at all. He's a useless hunk of gristle and besides, he's lyin' on my blanket.

[Sam and Simons are brawling in the saloon]::Martha Evans: Does that look like a conspiracy to you?::Hilary Price: The thieves have fallen out.

Hilary Price: I'll just drive along; just drive and drive and drive while you two consort.::Martha Evans: Oh, really, Hilary, do you call an innocent canter consorting?::Hilary Price: No, but I call a half-a-day gallop a romp.

Hilary Price: You decided to play Mr. Ellsworth's game.::Martha Evans: He certainly is not like him.::Hilary Price: Oh, no? One was willing to buy a bull he didn't want and one was willing to sell one he didn't have.

Hilary Price: Vindicator, you've got to stand on your own four feet. I mean it! You're a British bull with uncommon good sense and fine ancestors. We've had some fine times together. Now you've got to prove yourself and prove that Father was right. Go on.

Alexander Bowen: That woman doesn't fear a thing, does she, Sam?::Sam Burnett: Nothing but dishonesty... and dirt.

Alexander Bowen: Ya cannot live with dreams. It's time to stop dreamin' and live for this day... and the next day.

Jeremy Baile: Good country, Glyn.::Glyn McLyntock: Yeah, real good country.::Jeremy Baile: Let's hope we can keep it this way. Missouri and Kansas was like this when I first saw 'em... good, clean. It was the men who came in to steal and kill that changed things. We mustn't let it happen here.

Glyn McLyntock: So you've decided to stay in Portland.::Emerson Cole: For a while, then thought I would drift on down to California::Glyn McLyntock: Still following that star.::Emerson Cole: Sometimes it's better than having a man with a star following you.
