- Jared Martin: I forgot this is just a business transaction to you. Name your price.
- Paladin: I can't do that until I'm sure how the rifles will be used.
- Jared Martin: As a matter of fact, they won't be used at all. My men have plenty of rifles.
- Paladin: What do you want with mine?
- Jared Martin: I don't. I just want to make sure Valdez doesn't get them.
- Paladin: Has Martin been approached on that basis?
- Arnold Haskins: He was. That's how Carlos Valdez got his broken arm.
- Pedro Valdez: Why do we have to wait?
- Paladin: Only to prevent an accident. These are extremely dangerous weapons.
- Pedro Valdez: What do you ask for the rifles?
- Paladin: You tell me after you've used them.
- Pedro Valdez: You're not afraid I will cheat you?
- Paladin: If that were my greatest fear, I would indeed be fearless.
