- Hec Ramsey, Deputy Sheriff: Rose, what are your plans for that drink?
- Savannah: [Raises glass in a toast] To the man... who never came back.
- Hec Ramsey, Deputy Sheriff: [Raises his glass] And to the woman... who made it on her own.
- Hec Ramsey, Deputy Sheriff: You know, McCabe, you are probably a very nice person, but I would not pick you to spend the winter with.
- Hec Ramsey, Deputy Sheriff: Now, I hope that militia of yours can shoot straight, 'cause me and old Brock are gonna be as close together as two snakes in a mason jar.
- Kate Harris: My name's Kate, and if you don't buy me a drink I'll tell you what a nice girl like me is doin' in a place like this.
- Banker Crawford: [having seen Hec in a prostitute's bedroom] I tell you I want action - and I don't mean the kind of action that Ramsey seems to be indulging himself in!
- Judge P.B. Shelley: You sound as if you got a burr under your saddle, McCabe.
- Marshal Bert McCabe: Same one you got under yours, Judge.
- Judge P.B. Shelley: Huh?
- Marshal Bert McCabe: Brock Madden.
- Judge P.B. Shelley: NOW what's that fine young man done?
- Marshal Bert McCabe: He has beat himself up another girl.
- Judge P.B. Shelley: Well, pay her off as usual, McCabe. The old man will give ya the money.
- Marshal Bert McCabe: Won't work out that way this time. This girl has a friend.
- Judge P.B. Shelley: Jail 'im. I'll put him away for two years - blackmail.
- Marshal Bert McCabe: His name is Hec Ramsey. He's a gunman, he's smart and he's tough.
- Judge P.B. Shelley: You afraid of him, McCabe.
- Marshal Bert McCabe: No. He also happens to be a lawman from the Oklahoma Territory.
- Banker Crawford: [finding Hec in a prostitute's bedroom] Crawford, this is sheer dereliction of duty. In flagrante delicto!
- Hec Ramsey, Deputy Sheriff: Yeah, I would just as easily throw you out that window, ipso facto, per se and a-cross the board.
