Quotes 

• Zeb Macahan : I'll tell you something, I've seen a skinned antelope that wasn't as bare as you are there, gall. Aren't you ashamed of yourself, carrying on like that?

  Beth : [bathing in a lake]  Nope.

  Zeb Macahan : Hah. You know, they got a name for loose women like you.

  Beth : Oh really? Why don't you come in here and tell me what it is?

  Zeb Macahan : Don't tempt me.

• Dr. Dupree : [giving Beth an examination]  What about seeing double?

  Beth : Only when I'm angry or don't get my own way.

  Dr. Dupree : Well, you didn't lose your sense of humor, anyway.

  Beth : Didn't I?

• Beth : Doctor, you can do me a favor. Don't discuss your decision about my riding with Mr. Macahan.

  Dr. Dupree : Hm. Favor refused. I don't help people kill themselves.

• Zeb Macahan : First time I ever laid eyes on you, an' I thought you were the prettiest thing I've ever seen.

  Beth : Well that's understandble, you'd been living for five months up in the mountains with bears.

• Beth : How many times are we going to go over this statement? I've given it to marshal Logan, it seems simple ant to the point.

  Judge Rensen : Oh, it is simple and to the point. And it is a lotta words, saying nothing.
