Ben Tully : You know, people in this town don't need guns! Now I proved that to 'em... and now I sound like an old man trying to convince himself. You know, son, I'm a newspaper man. I've travelled all over this country and seen every kind of violence and I know that if you give a man a club, well, he'll swing it. Now you take that club away from him, he'll learn how to argue. He just doesn't need the club anymore.
Johnny Yuma : Are you sure?
Ben Tully : Well... I was.

Walt Ashby : You're not making it any easier, Ben.

Walt Ashby : It couldn't be helped. A man has a right to protect himself! We told you we'd give the guns back.
Ben Tully : Will you... or will you just get used to them again?
