- Goldie Rogers: The only thing you love is pushing two straight rails out into no-man's-land. That's the only thing you love.
- Goldie Rogers: I'm fleeing, that's what I'm doing. I'd figured you'd be coming around here to borrow money. So I decided to take our four gorgeous heads, our eight cerulean blue eyes, and our sixteen milk-white limbs right out of here and back to St Louis where we belong.
- Jonathan Damon: When men work as hard as these men work, I try to see it that they don't turn into subhuman wrecks. I told them to take the day off and enjoy themselves.
- Goodgate: What about the guards? The men I advanced the money for? Where are they?
- Jonathan Damon: The railway guards. Aw, they're with the men. They gone swimming. That promotes brotherhood.
- Goodgate: Then everything's all right?
- Jonathan Damon: Perfect. Perfect. Best medicine in the world is a little laughter in the sunshine.
- Gil Favor: [to Wish, Mushy, Rowdy & Quince] Oh, now, don't pout. You lost a draw fair and square, didn't yah? Being petty just doesn't become you big strapping outdoor types.
- Jonathan Damon: Goldie, I asked these men to bed down on our land, let us throw a little party for 'em.
- Goldie Rogers: And?
- Jonathan Damon: And, like all over-worked men, they're pole-axed, they don't know what to do.
- Goldie Rogers: Oohhh. Please.
- [the Southern charm has now been switched on]
- Gil Favor: Well, all right. They really can be a pretty rank bunch. You're sure you can handle them?
- Jonathan Damon: Well, I can sure try.
- Gil Favor: [He's climbing the bars in his cell in the jail] You won't get me. You won't get me, Damon. You're gonna get me stomping up and down your backbone until your ribs pop out in your face. You gonna get me tearing out your greasy little heart and feeding it to you bit by bit until your stomach begins to squirm so bad, it's gonna turn you inside out. Damon! Just wait until my men hear you got me in here on a phoney trumped-up charge of abducting a woman! They ain't gonna believe it! Ain't for one minute! No! No! They gonna come here and tear you limb from limb!
- Goldie Rogers: I was wondering what to do if the doctor is out on call. I need some place to leave you until tomorrow. Maybe I could leave you at my place.
- Gil Favor: Well, whatever you say.
- Goldie Rogers: Well, that's what we'll do. Just relax.
