Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Bartender : What's your pleasure, mister?

  Bret Maverick : Well, generally, it's poker but right now I'm a little thirsty. Nice little town you got here.

  Bartender : It's a friendly place. A little too friendly, if you ask me. Ain't had a good fist-fight here in over a week.

  Bret Maverick : thought I saw a little ruckus outside.

  Bartender : A gunfight ain't no good for watchin', it's over too soon.

  Bret Maverick : Well, I'm a peaceful man myself, I get all the action I want at the poker table.
