- Matilda Blake: What now?
- Fort Allen Townsman: Where's the doctor? This man's been shot?
- Matilda Blake: Oh, for heaven's sake! I'm tryin' to run a hotel here, not a hospital. I don't want him drippin' blood all over my floor - get him outta here, quick!
- Dr. Daniel Blake: [slurring] My office hours are from two to four in the afternoon. A man's gotta have a little relaxation.
- Matilda Blake: Will you shut up and attend to your patient!
- Caroline Ogden Standish: Is he the only doctor in town? Why, he's drunk!
- Dr. Daniel Blake: Of course I'm the only doctor in town. Of course I'm drunk. Madam, permit me to inform you that I've been drunk ever since I graduated from Harvard Medical School, with highest honours.
- [Hiccups]
- Dr. Daniel Blake: Pardon me. Now, where's the patient?
- Caroline Ogden Standish: Oh, doctor - has he got a chance?
- Dr. Daniel Blake: He'll be a new man in a week! Unless he dies.
- Third Agitator: Sure - we've had panics before, but never one like this! Our whole financial and economic structure is tottering! America, my friends, is broke! Finished! Nothing left to be done except give the country back to the Indians!
