Rowdy Yates : Get me out of here!
[a steaming hot bath and being supervised by his Boss]
Rowdy Yates : I'm already clean the day I was born, and my skin's half-boiled off.
Gil Favor : I'd say you were still at least a good 20 proof. Now, look, Rowdy, you got a long, hard ride ahead of you. Whether we go broke or not on this herd depends on how fast and how well you ride.

Rowdy Yates : Even the Kiowas got the decency to scalp a man before they boil them.

Josh Breeden : I guess I sure got enough time to bend to hunker into that, wouldn't I?

Josh Breeden : You're firing me? You can't. I quit better men before you were bite-winged . Forty years back.
Gil Favor : Forty years back! I know! I know! What was it it, ah, you broke trail through the Apache.
Josh Breeden : Yeah.
[They yell at each other about the passes and trails]
Gil Favor : I've heard them al twenty times. It's time to do the swapping at the old folks' home.
