  • I don't want to fight any bulls, I don't like bulls. [high-pitched-crying] I'm allergic to bulls!

  • [to Stan] Now always remember, anytime you get in trouble you can depend upon me to get you out of it.

Richard K. Muldoon

  • After five years, the guilty man confessed, and I was released. But I lost everything. My lawyers took my entire fortune, my wife divorced me, my family was broken up, everything. (Furiously) THOSE TWO BLOODHOUNDS RUINED MY LIFE! I HAD TO FLEE TO MEXICO TO START LIFE ANEW! But I'll run into them again! When I do catch them, I will skin them alive! First the little one, Then the big one! I'll skin them BOTH alive!!!
  • Well, this fella that looked like you had a friend - a human hippopotamus. Why, if I had that mass of blubber here right now, I'd crush him alive like this. [he crushes a handful of nuts into small pieces]

Dialogue

edit
Stan: Maybe you'd better go up to him and apologize. That's a terrible thing to do to a fella.
Oliver: I'd better go up to him and apologize?! You're the one who so falsely accused him! Why if you had any spark of manhood left in you right now, you'd go right up to him and apologize.
Stan: Well okay, I'll go to..
Hot Shot Coleman: Excuse me, if you'll take my advice, you'll never cross his path again. Because he told me if he ever saw you again he was going to skin you alive. "First the little one, then the big one," he said. "I'LL SKIN THEM BOTH ALIVE!!" Now if you are smart enough, You should get out of town right now. Because Richard K. Muldoon is like an elephant, He never forgets.
Oliver: That bull wouldn't hurt a fly!
Stan: Yeah, but I'm not a fly!
Oliver the skeleton: Well, Here's another nice mess you've gotten me into!
Stan the skeleton: [whines] But I couldn't help it, You always picked on me!
Oliver the skeleton: Come on, Let's get out of here and go back to Peoria, where we belong!!
