- Hank Saxon: [Talking to Diane after he has shot his accomplice] Around here everybody... even you think I'm one third Apache. Well, in the war they dropped me behind the lines up in North Korea. Believe it or not, they thought I was a third Korean. Yea, I'm a third of wherever I am; a third of whomever I'm with. I'm like a lizard in the sun - I blend, blend with the landscape. Not because I want to. All my life I've been trying to find a way of becoming three thirds of something.
- [He looks directly at her]
- Hank Saxon: Diane, you could make me three thirds of myself.
- [She doesn't answer, but turns away to mount her horse]

- Tod Stiles: [Tod's inner soliloquy, heard as a voice over on the sound track] What made me come along? Why was I afraid not to go? Was it because I knew this was a moment I'd learn something important? Was I afraid to face it for whatever it was? All right, so what did I learn? That people can only make themselves important at the expense of others? These killings - were they murders? Were they sacrifices, each to a private reason, each to a hidden God? Do people really think that if they go through life without hurting other people nobody will ever know they had been alive?
- [Now yelling at the members of the departing posse]
- Tod Stiles: I don't believe that! Nothing you do and nothing I see can make me believe that!
