Doc Holliday : My mistake, sir.
Bret Maverick : We all make 'em... that's why we have erasers, huh?
-
[last lines]
Doc Holliday : Which way?
Bret Maverick : Well, I figured I'd ride on toward Dodge City.
Doc Holliday : I hear they got a pretty good game going on up there. Mind if I ride along with you?
-
Doc Holliday : Never kill time, friend. Or it'll end up kill you.
Bret Maverick : Well, there's a difference between wasting it and spending it. Who knows, a few minutes here might even be an investment.
Doc Holliday : Not for me.
Bret Maverick : Might make a killing.
[looking towards the room Stacey Johnson entered]
Doc Holliday : How true.

[Maverick is posing as Bret Martin]
Doc Holliday : Why didn't you kill him?
Bret Maverick : Well, he's kind of a friend of mine.
Doc Holliday : You're wrong. You have no friends. There are only two kinds of people in the West, Mr. Martin. The quick and the dead.
-
Doc Holliday : Careless talk, gossip mostly. But it's invidious. Distasteful. Depressing.
Bret Maverick : I think I know what you're talkin' about, but...
Doc Holliday : Then you do see my point? The most precious thing to a man is his reputation. If he loses that, he loses everything including sleep.
-
Doc Holliday : I'm very disappointed in you.
Bret Maverick : Disappointed, Doc?
Doc Holliday : Yes. It isn't often I think enough of anyone to be disappointed in 'em - but you've done it... You're a very dishonest man. You've been cheating me, Mr. Martin - with marked cards!
Bret Maverick : Cheating you? Doc, you've been winning all night.
Doc Holliday : That's how you've been cheating me.
-
Doc Holliday : You know, it really doesn't matter why a man cheats me.
Bret Maverick : Does it matter that he saved your life?
Doc Holliday : For that dubious favor, I'll grant one small bonus. I'm gonna leave town in the morning - but before I do, I'm gonna complete the business I came here to transact. And if, Mr. Martin, I happen to see you here, on the street... or anywhere I happen to be, I'll deal with you exactly as I intend to deal with your friend. If, on the other hand, I don't happen to see you, I'll just ride out of town and forget you. And that, Mr. Martin, is a better deal than the one you've been giving me here tonight.
