- Colonel Hiller: Lock him up!
- Pete Nolan: I wish you'd put that a little differently. Why couldn't you say, find comfortable quarters for our guest?
- Colonel Hiller: The United States Army doesn't extend hospitality to Pawnee chiefs.
- Gil Favor: It might be better if you did.
- Colonel Hiller: Find comfortable quarters for our guest!
- Ogalla: I come in friendship.
- Pete Nolan: That why you threw the spear?
- Ogalla: The lance is buried in the earth, not in your heart.
- Gil Favor: What about Rutledge, and Cochran, and Marshall. They served under me in the Confederate Army. One of them hates me enough to kill me.
- Colonel Hiller: I have yet to see a soldier who doesn't hate a good officer, Captain. You have your orders.
- Gil Favor: Yes, sir.
- Baines: There's no sign of them yet. But then the Pawnee don't like to ride in the morning hours. They think the spirits of the dead ride in the morning mists before the sun rises.
