El Paso Sheriff : He's just a goddamn homicidal lunatic, Ed Tom.

Ed Tom Bell : Well, sometimes I think he's pretty much a ghost.
El Paso Sheriff : Oh, he's real all right.
Ed Tom Bell : Oh yeah.
El Paso Sheriff : Yeah, all that over at the Eagle Hotel? Huh, it's beyond everything.
Ed Tom Bell : Yeah. Got some hard bark on him.
El Paso Sheriff : Well - well, that don't hardly say it. He shoots the desk clerk one day, walks right back in the next and shoots a retired army colonel.
Ed Tom Bell : It's hard to believe.
El Paso Sheriff : Just strolls right back into a crime scene. Now, who'd do such a thing? How do you defend against it?

El Paso Sheriff : What's it mean? What's it leadin' to? You know, if you'd have told me 20 years ago, that I'd see children walking the streets of our Texas towns with green hair and bones in their noses, I just flat-out wouldn't have believed you.

El Paso Sheriff : Oh, it's the tide. It's the dismal tide.
