Rooster Cogburn:
Give me your cup.
Mattie Ross: I don't drink coffee, thank you. Rooster Cogburn: Well, now, what do you drink? Mattie Ross: I'm partial to cold buttermilk. Rooster Cogburn: Well, we ain't got none of that. We ain't got no lemonade neither!

They don't call him "Lucky" Ned Pepper for nothing.

Rooster Cogburn:
When's the last time you saw Ned Pepper?
Emmett Quincy: I don't remember any Ned Pepper. Rooster Cogburn: Short feisty fella, nervous and quick, got a messed-up lower lip. Emmett Quincy: That don't bring nobody to mind. A funny lip? Rooster Cogburn: Wasn't always like that, I shot him in it. Emmett Quincy: In the lower lip? What was you aiming at? Rooster Cogburn: His upper lip.

Rooster Cogburn:
Why, by God, girl, that's a Colt's Dragoon! You're no bigger than a corn nubbin, what're you doing with all this pistol?
Mattie Ross: It belonged to my father, he carried it bravely in the war, and I intend to kill Tom Chaney with it if the law fails to do so. Rooster Cogburn: Well, this'll sure get the job done if you can find a fence post to rest it on while you take aim.
