Pat Hingle: Horace the Bartender

Quotes 

• Ellen : [female gunslinger walks up behind a preoccupied bartender]  How about a room?

  Horace : Whores next door.

  Ellen : [carefully sets her cigar down]  Say that again.

  Horace : I said whores next door.

  Ellen : [kicks the stool out from under him, catches his liquor bottle as he falls, & pours herself a drink]  Now, do you have a room available?

  Horace : Uh, room and bath, yes, ma'am, coming up!

• John Herod : [threatening to hang Cort]  I want you in that contest.

  Cort : No.

  John Herod : [shooting at the chair on which Cort stands]  Think about it.

  [taking two more shots] 

  John Herod : Last chance. Yes or no?

  Cort : Go to hell.

  [as Herod chambers another round, the chair begins to crack, ready to break] 

  Ellen : Sign me up.

  Horace : No women in quick-draw. It's against the rules.

  John Herod : There's no rule against ladies. It's just that women can't shoot for shit.

  [laughing with the other patrons] 

  John Herod : Adios, reverend.
