- Bret Maverick: As my old pappy always told me, "Son, it's not how fast you draw that counts. It's what you draw and when you draw."
- Holly Vaughn: A man is coming here to kill you!
- Bret Maverick: So I hear.
- Holly Vaughn: You men. You and your code. Like a lot of silly school boys trying to prove how brave you are. Well, it isn't bravery. It's stupidity, viciousness, and selfishness. No thought for the women who are left behind while you're out slaughtering each other. And for what? Pride? Stupid, silly pride. A man is coming here to kill you. Why, why must you stay here and face him?
- Bret Maverick: Who's staying?

- Smoky Vaughn: Well, I'm sorry, mister, I didn't mean to splash ya.
- George Henry Arnett: Can you see that puddle?
- Smoky Vaughn: I thought-I'm sorry, now lay off.
- George Henry Arnett: Not so fast, sonny. Seems like you need to be taught a lesson. Like... for instance, there's a puddle in the street... which you don't know. Well, maybe this will help you find out where it is.

- Bret Maverick: Well, hello there, Brother Bart.
- Bart Maverick: Bret, what's going on around here, anyway?
- Burgess: Here he is, sheriff, Bart Maverick, wanted for robbery and murder.
- Burgess: [to Bret] I bet you thought I'd fall for that yarn about your brother being in Canyon City. You know, once bitten. Well, finally I got around to asking a few questions about where he really was. Here he is.
- Bret Maverick: Yeah, he sure is. You know, Mr. Burgess, I think you're just too smart for me. Yeah. Well, so long, Mr. Burgess. Come on, Smoky. See you, Brother Bart.
- Bart Maverick: Hey now, Bret, wait a minute.
