- Ulysses Bowman: They don't aim to kill me. They just figure I'll run scared and lead 'em back to camp.
- Ulysses Bowman: You got some whiskey?
- Johnny Yuma: No, sir.
- Ulysses Bowman: Don't drink you mean?
- Johnny Yuma: Sometimes.
- Ulysses Bowman: Ah, man's answer. How tall are you, son?
- Johnny Yuma: Tall enough, I reckon. Short for some things.
- Ulysses Bowman: Churchgoing?
- Johnny Yuma: When I pass one. Ain't too often though, I guess.
- Ulysses Bowman: Huh! The Lord sent you, son! And that's a fact! You will do. Yes!
- Johnny Yuma: So?
- Ulysses Bowman: Yes!
- Ulysses Bowman: Competition get you, don't it.
- Johnny Yuma: For a man who almost got himself shot to death this morning, you're either a fool or stone blind. Or both!
- Ulysses Bowman: You think it was them, huh?
- Johnny Yuma: Now, look, you offer your girl to that hardcake and I'll break you in half with my own hands. And I mean it.
- Ulysses Bowman: Oh, now, listen, Johnny.
- Johnny Yuma: There's nothing to listen.
- Ulysses Bowman: She's an old maid. You can't deny that. And I'm her Pa.
- Johnny Yuma: Does it make any difference to you that she just heard you?
- Ulysses Bowman: Do you good. Face up to things.
- Ulysses Bowman: NOW, WHAT'S WRONG WITH HIM, FELICITY?
- Felicity Bowman: Same thing that was wrong with the one in Abilene, Pa. And Denver. And every place else. I don't know him.
- Felicity Bowman: I thought you was killed or something.
- Ulysses Bowman: Well, not yet by tarnation. This here Yank chaser dished me up another try. And I aim to reward him, Felicity. You willing, of course.
- Felicity Bowman: NO! PA!
- Johnny Yuma: I don't understand what kind of man treats his daughter like you have. Without dignity, or respect, or love. I'm ashamed to know you, Mr Bowman.
- Felicity Bowman: It's been such a long time since gentle lips touched me.
- Johnny Yuma: Key to your heart? What's wrong?
- Felicity Bowman: It's the key to the Hope Chest.
- Felicity Bowman: Who's gonna love me with a nasty old man running around acting like I ain't worth fifty cents.
- Johnny Yuma: Felicity, you know the right man ain't gonna care about silk dresses, or fancy shoes, or a dowry.
- Felicity Bowman: How am I gonna be sure?
