Quotes 

• Diana Coulter : The oriental boy claims you claim some familiarity with firearms. Tell me, ever see one of these?

  Paladin : It's a Martini Henry. I didn't know they sold them to civilians.

• Paladin : If you insist on doing this your way, I can't stop you. I was hired to do a job and now it's done. But when you start shooting, remember one thing thing, save one bullet for yourself.

• Hey Boy : She very attractive but touchy in the head. She came from little island, everything American very strange.

  Paladin : Where?

  Hey Boy : I don't know name but very barbarian, I bet you. You know what she order for breakfast? Kidney. She no lady I think.

  Paladin : The small island of Britain.

• Paladin : This is Comanche war paint and it's not quite dry.

  Diana Coulter : What's that got to do with us? We haven't done them any harm. Now wait for me over there.

  Paladin : I'll give you five minutes.

  Diana Coulter : Paladin!

  Paladin : WHAT!

  Diana Coulter : May I say that I have been most favourably impressed by your behaviour until now.

  Paladin : Thank you.

  Diana Coulter : Don't give me cause to change my opinion of you.

  Paladin : Well, I'll do my best to control the bestial side of my nature.

• Paladin : Miss Coulter, when the Comanche are at war, they are every bit as unpleasant as the tribesmen on India's Northwest frontier. Or have you forgotten Khyber Pass, the Sepoy uprising, and the Black Hole of Calcutta. Now at your brother's ranch, I'm sure you'll find a better class of Indian.

• Paladin : See that. The Indians have tethered our horses with theirs. Those horses haven't been watered for two days and I know those braves haven't bothered to water them. You get me some of your brother's clothing.

  [They place a bucket in the window and Paladin rustles the water with his hand. One of their packhorses comes down for a drink. Braving through his pain, Paladin, and Diane climb out of the window, put the dummy on the horse and make good their getaway] 

• Paladin : Miss Coulter, if you insist on volunteering for guard duty, would you mind staying awake and pointing that in another direction.

• Diana Coulter : [Paladin has been shot through the back by a Comanche arrow. He and Miss Coulter are hiding under the floor of the kitchen in a secret hiding place]  How will you stop from crying out?

  Paladin : By thinking of my scalp.

• Diana Coulter : I'm thirsty.

  Paladin : All right. It's time to move anyway. Maybe there's some water in the kitchen.

• Paladin : Hatred in a dying man may be excusable. But among the living it can become an intolerable thing, it never gives its victim a moment's peace.
