Ben Brigade:
[going to meet the Mescalero chief] He'll offer his trade. I'll turn him down.
Mrs. Carrie Lane: Then? Ben Brigade: With any luck, they'll ride off. Stay out in the hills, try to figure some how else to get you away from us. Mrs. Carrie Lane: I see. Ben Brigade: No matter what happens, don't break down in front of 'em. If you do, they'll take it wrong. Shame 'em. Mrs. Carrie Lane: I don't scare easy, Mr. Brigade. Ben Brigade: I hope not.

They told me why you're taking the boy to Santa Cruz.

Mrs. Carrie Lane: It doesn't bother you, bringing him in, I mean. Ben Brigade: No, ma'am. Mrs. Carrie Lane: You just don't seem the kind that would hunt a man for money. Ben Brigade: I am.

Whit:
I'd hate to see you loose your place up Socorro-way. I'd be mighty proud to work for you.
Sam Boone: *Work* for me? Whit: I plowed when I was young. I ain't much with chickens, but I can slop pigs with the best of 'em. Sam Boone: Whit, how long you and me been riding together? Whit: About two years? Sam Boone: More like *five*. Whit: So? Sam Boone: So you ain't gonna be working for me... You're gonna be a partner. Whit: Partner! Sam Boone: Right down the middle. Whit: How come? Sam Boone: 'Cause I like you, Whit. Whit: Well, I never knew that!
