Quotes
-
Rowdy Yates : All right, spit it, what's bothering you?
Wishbone : You know mighty well what's bothering me. You got us into a shooting war with the Army, that's what.
Rowdy Yates : As far as I'm concerned I didn't start it.
Wishbone : Other than the fact that you shot a lieutenant.
Rowdy Yates : Look, I nicked a young punk who was trying to run off with a hundred of my steers.
Wishbone : Well, whether he's a punk or not, he's still a lieutenant in the US Army, and if you shoot the lieutenant, you shoot the Army. You shoot the Army and the Army shoots back.
Rowdy Yates : What'd you want me to do? Let him run off with the whole herd? Or maybe better yet, shoot me?
