- Clay Hardin: [about the dance] Took me years to pick up.
- Jeanne Starr: It must have been the only thing that took you that long.
- Clay Hardin: Well, we don't get pretty girls like you down here often. Guess that's why we have to pay for it.
- Henrietta: The regular stagecoach stops here overnight. They don't have to sit up all night, bouncing their brains out!
- Sacha Bozic: It is not my brains is tired!
- Henrietta: Well *use* them then, and get us on the regular stagecoach!
- Sacha Bozic: Look, Tuesday it is last night we played already... so we got to be there, yesterday yet. Because the day before, we ain't *no* place, you know?
- Henrietta: Whaaat?
- Sacha Bozic: Sheesh'a! Look... next day it is last night we don't start. And Tuesday evening is the morning we ain't coming. Now you understand?
- Henrietta: Of course not!
- Sacha Bozic: I'm sorry, I'm not a teacher! Sheesh'a...!
- Clay Hardin: On the level. There's a desperate character on the loose...
- Jeanne Starr: And his name's Clay Hardin.
- Jeanne Starr: He called you Clay.
- Clay Hardin: Un huh.
- Jeanne Starr: Are they going to arrest you?
- Clay Hardin: I hope not. That would spoil our whole evening.
- Jeanne Starr: Aren't you ever going to forgive me for something I didn't even do?
- Clay Hardin: Uh, did you ever hear of an animal called a Judas goat?
- Jeanne Starr: No, but never mind that now, Clay...
- Clay Hardin: But I *do* mind now... When sheep are driven into the pen to be slaughtered, they balk and won't go in, so a goat's put in to lead 'em. The sheep trust the goat, and they go where she leads. The goat walks through untouched, but the sheep following her are killed.
