Quotes 

• Douglas Brainard : I think we'd better give up. We've been circling for two hours.

  Clay McCord : No... we can't give up.

  Douglas Brainard : You're not going to make it, Clay.

  Clay McCord : You're forgettin' one thing, Mr. Brainard.

  Douglas Brainard : Yeah? What's that?

  Clay McCord : If we give up, Simon ain't gonna make it, either.

• Clay McCord : Where's Brainerd?

  Posse Member : We left him inside - slight case of gun barrel over the head.

• Marshal Simon Fry : Brainard and his crew ought to be worth a big reward.

  Clay McCord : The way I feel, the best part of it will be spent for doctor's bills - that is, if I get it.

  Marshal Simon Fry : Oh, you won't get it, 'cause no rewards been posted. Only reward you'll get is you saved me the beatin' you took.

• [last lines] 

  Clay McCord : You mean you knew all the time I might have to take this beatin'?

  Marshal Simon Fry : Well, you're gettin' good money for your trouble, boy.

  Clay McCord : That's right, Simon. The law has to expect trouble. 'Course, it's the scars and bruises that make it worthwhile.
