Quotes

Jason McCord : I don't think anyone's out to get you, Mr Shields. It's just that you were given certain land grants some years ago and it seems you outgrew them.
Aaron Shields : So what? Maybe I did take ten times what the government gave me. Well, it's the same thing the government did with the Indians and they didn't do a blessed thing about it. I took that land and made something good out of it. I took that alkaline that attacks this land and turned it into a rich horse and cattle country.

Kolyan - Gypsy Leader : From sunrise to sunset, the almighty Shields owns the air you breathe.
Jason McCord : Oh, well then, I'd be honoured to stay with you and breathe some fresh air.

Kolyan - Gypsy Leader : Wild women and horses are both the same. It only takes a little time and a strong hand to break them.
Jason McCord : Or be thrown so hard you never get up.

Lisa - Kolyan's Sister : You can do better, gorgas.
Jason McCord : Some men are good at something, some are good at another.
Lisa - Kolyan's Sister : And what is your specialty? Breaking in small goats?
Jason McCord : Small stubborn goats.

Jason McCord : ON WHAT CHARGE?
Aaron Shields : I could name a hundred. First off you polluted my creek this morning.
Jason McCord : I DID WHAT?
Aaron Shields : That'll do for openers. When the Sheriff checks that one out, I'll start naming the others. I said, arrest him.
Kolyan - Gypsy Leader : You call this justice. This is the law of one gorgas and his guns.

Lazar - Gypsy Who Assists McCord With Surveying : I can write my name, sir. I can count up to 100.
Jason McCord : Well, that's fair enough. I'll take care of everything over one hundred.
Kolyan - Gypsy Leader : McCord, who's going to take care of Shields and his men when they come looking for trouble?
Jason McCord : I don't expect trouble.
Kolyan - Gypsy Leader : It's his land. It's his people. It's his law. And you crossed him.
