Quotes 

• Bret Maverick : I was there to earn twenty-five thousand dollars. Or was I trying to find Ellen because I was still in love with her? When it's a question of love or money, I sometimes get confused.

• Bret Maverick : No, I was probably quoting my old Pappy. He always said, uh, "A penny earned... isn't worth much anymore."

• [last lines] 

  Angelita : I cannot leave them. If I go, they will be lost. They will not eat, they will not know where to go.

  Bret Maverick : Won't they even steal?

  Angelita : They are just learning. Senor, will you be sad if I do not go with you?

  Bret Maverick : I think I will be sad.

  Angelita : Too sad?

  Bret Maverick : Well, if you're happy here, I'll try not to be too sad.

• [first lines] 

  Bret Maverick : [narrating]  It was a typically invigorating San Francisco night. Someone once said that if it was thick enough, you could lean on a San Francisco fog. But, obviously, that wasn't true. As for myself, I was having no trouble at all.

• Bret Maverick : Where'd you get this stuff?

  Angelita : Oh, some we find, some we buy.

  Bret Maverick : And all you steal.

• Ellen Johnson : How many times have I missed an appointment with you?

  Bret Maverick : There was three times last week alone.
