- James Hendricks: I guess you figure this town owes you an apology, Mr. Randall?
- Josh Randall: Not at all, Mr. Hendricks. This town can only do one thing for me.
- James Hendricks: What's that?
- Josh Randall: Watch me ride out. It's gonna be the first time in a week I feel clean.
- Sheriff M. Comstock: [Explaining why he won't go after Jed] Anyway, that sawmill is ten miles up the river - out of my jurisdiction.
- Josh Randall: You know, it seems to me as far as Jed Miller is concerned, the sidewalk out in front of your office is out of jurisdiction.
- Gabe Henshaw: I'm the town plague. I'm dirt under everybody's feet. Real joy would come to Varga if I were to be washed away in the next cloudburst.
