- Diana Coulter: I feel rather sorry for B.G.
- Paladin: Oh?
- Diana Coulter: It's the first time anybody's made him look foolish.
- Paladin: Man who needs twenty guns to get his bride to the altar I'd call that a lot worse than foolish.
- Diana Coulter: He's not a bad man really, if it wasn't for that monstrous vanity and ambition.
- Paladin: "Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall." And those are the qualities I'm counting on to get us out of here alive.
- General Beauregard Grock: You asking directions, fella? Or giving 'em?
- Paladin: Well, that depends on which one of us is more lost.
- Paladin: You want your woman back? All right, there's just one way you can get her. Fight for her. Just the two of us. I'll leave the choice of weapons to you.
- General Beauregard Grock: Well, I admit she's hurt me deeply. But I forgive her, if I can make him pay for this.
- Diana Coulter: Paladin, if we do get out of here, what then?
- Paladin: You asking for a prediction, or a promise?
- Diana Coulter: You won't change your ways for anybody, will you?
- Paladin: If I could, you'd be the all reason I'd ever need.
- Diana Coulter: How do you think I felt left alone in San Francisco while you were off slaying dragons or liberating enchanted castles or saving new damsels in distress. All for a suitable fee of course.
