Marshall Chris Adams
edit- Judge Parker told me once, "The men I hang never killed again. There are plenty I didn't hang, did." Now you tell me he was wrong.
Noah Forbes
edit- [to Chris] There sure has been a lot of killing since I met you.
Mark Skinner
edit- [leaving the room with his arms around three women] Chris, did I ever tell you I was born in Salt Lake? I'm a Mormon!
Capt Andy Hayes
edit- They say if a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, there's a question of whether it made any noise. If none of us lives to tell about this, can be covered in glory?
Dialogue
edit- Marshall Chris Adams: Tell me everything you know about him. What he likes, how he acts, everything.
- Laurie Gunn: Well, ah, the first thing you notice about him are... his eyes. They tell you that he is mad. Crazy mad.
- Padre: God works in strange ways.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Yeah, I know. He's got me confused most of the time, too.
- Noah Forbes: The name's Noah Forbes, Marshal. I've decided to do for you what Ned Buntline did for Bill Cody.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Make a damn fool of me?
- Noah Forbes: Make you famous.
- Marshall Chris Adams: You're a writer?
- Noah Forbes: You name a big city newspaper and I've worked on it.
- Marshall Chris Adams: That means you're pretty good - or you can't hold a job.
- Noah Forbes: That's all we're taking?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Yeah.
- Noah Forbes: Let's get more men.
- Marshall Chris Adams: Seven's always been my lucky number.
- Noah Forbes: Well, should we bury 'em?
- Marshall Chris Adams: The living need us more.
- Capt Andy Hayes: All right, what's your plan?
- Marshall Chris Adams: Oh, I figured we'd just ride in there and shoot down anyone carrying a gun.
- [Laurie convinces Chris to stay with her]
- Marshall Chris Adams: Skinner, you've just been demoted to deputy.
- Mark Skinner: Yeah, well that figures. I wouldn't have had much time for work anyway.
