Quotes
-
Julie Holland : You're laughing at me. With indulgent condensation. You have been all day, Michael. Thanks for letting me tag along fishing. What's wrong?
Michael Malone : You reminded me of something, a long way back, something my little sister used to say when we were very young.
-
Julie Holland : No, by all that is holy, that's not all it was. Love isn't something that you can put on and take off, like a coat. Maybe it's wrong, but I do love you. I'll never quite love anyone again in quite the same way.
Michael Malone : No, two loves' ever quite the same, because no two people are quite the same.
Julie Holland : I'll never see you again, or know where you are, or how you are.
Michael Malone : Remember what St Augustine said: He that is far distant from the body is united to thee, because he loves what you love.
-
Cooper Smith : You make it awful hard for a man to understand you, Mike.
Michael Malone : A man has all he can do to understand himself.
-
Michael Malone : Sometimes it's best not to know all the answers.
-
Michael Malone : I'm travelling light, I can't afford to lose my shirt.
-
Julie Holland : I got something for your hands.
Michael Malone : Oh, don't bother, they'll toughen up.
Julie Holland : It's no bother at all. Let me see them. Oh, heavens above. The pain must be something terrible.
Michael Malone : Proud wounds of honest toil.
Julie Holland : Proud they may be but the pain must be something fierce.
-
Nora Holland : Michael, whatever you're running away from is running right along side of you.
Michael Malone : Nora, I'd rather not talk about it.
Nora Holland : I'm not a prying woman by nature but where there's a mystery and a sadness to a man it's intriguing. Young girls make a dream of it.
Michael Malone : There's a difference between the dream and the reality.
Nora Holland : Michael, be gentle when you break her heart.
Michael Malone : You're making too much of it.
-
Michael Malone : Ben, it's Beth you should be saying these things to. She's your wife. She's the mother of your child.
Ben Mitchell : Not mine. Well, there's a whole story in two short words. It's not mine.

Michael Malone : [He is banging on the front door of the Saloon] Hey.
Charlie Wooster : Hey, Mister, banging on them doors aint going do you any good. Saloons in this town don't open for business on Sundays. A pity too. I could do with a drink for my dry throat.
Michael Malone : Tell you what, friend, you help me with the barkeep and we'll buy ourselves a bottle.
Charlie Wooster : I don't think it's a good idea. Don't do it.
Michael Malone : Huh?
Charlie Wooster : Because it's dangerous here, disturbing the peace, maybe.
Michael Malone : [He points to the townspeople] It's them that's disturbing the peace, my friend.
[He and Charlie crash through the window of the Saloon]
Charlie Wooster : Now, see what you've done. Stay near the camp, Coop says. Don't go near the Saloon, Coop says.
Michael Malone : Coop, huh? You must be Charlie Wooster.
Charlie Wooster : I know.
Michael Malone : How do you do.
Charlie Wooster : How do you do? And a fine how-you-do if you ask me.

Michael Malone : We had a choice of either five days in jail or...
Cooper Smith : What does he mean: We?
Charlie Wooster : I was an innocent bystander, that's all I was.
Christopher Hale : This most interesting. Would you care to continue?
Michael Malone : Well, there was the matter of the saloon window we broke.
Charlie Wooster : Good drivers are hard to find, aint they Coop?
Christopher Hale : Maybe you don't look in the right places.
Charlie Wooster : I do.
Christopher Hale : Have you driven a four up before, Mr Malone?
Michael Malone : No, sir. Mr Wooster gave me an advance on my salary to pay for the fine and the window. The only way I can repay the debt is to work it out for the ladies.
Christopher Hale : Mr Wooster is most generous.
Charlie Wooster , Christopher Hale , Nora Holland : We'll get on fine, Mr Malone.
Christopher Hale : Just one thing in case it makes a difference, I have an ironcast rule about drinking to excess on this wagon.
Michael Malone : I'm used to ironcast rules.
Christopher Hale : Army?
Michael Malone : No. But the discipline is just the same.
Christopher Hale : Being used to rules and obeying them are two different things, Mr Malone.
