- Paladin: Well, Tyree, I just don't have the inclination or the breath to offer you the water a second time.
- John Tyree: Friend, I could say I don't want any. I could say that I don't want any because if I'd've shot straight, I wouldn't have these chains on my wrist. Or your company! Just my own pleasant solitude to die in. I could say that. Or I could say that I don't want it because I'm too proud to be given something that in reality I'm going to take.
- [He attacks Paladin]
- Paladin: You have a bad disposition and a big mouth.
- [the fight continues]
- Girl: I'm not a good shot.
- John Tyree: You're not? You almost shot my foot off!
- Girl: That's no great shakes considering I was aiming for your head.
