- Chute Wilson: Looks like you don't understand these men as well as I do.
- Father Miguel: Men? I don't see any men here.
- Josh Randall: [after Miller tries unsuccessfully to bribe Randall into letting him go] It may be hard for you to understand, but when it comes to justice, I favor the law.
- Chester Miller aka Penfold Crane: Justice? Why, you money-grubbin' gunslinger! What do you know about justice?
- Josh Randall: Well, I seem to do some good here n' there. Take care of men who thieve and bully, raise holy terror with innocent folk. Like this Curley Pettingill that you shot.
- Chester Miller aka Penfold Crane: I didn't shoot him!
- Josh Randall: Well, I think that's up to the people of Pot Hole to decide.
- Father Miguel: [Describing Chute Wilson] These hangings are very important to him. They amuse his friends and scare his enemies.
- Chute Wilson: You're a little out of bounds, Padre. This is no church.
- Father Miguel: This is no court of law either.
- Father Miguel: Let me warn you, all of you! Anyone that has a hand in this drunken carnival will be debasing something sacred given to him in trust by Almighty God - the purity and sanctity of his own soul!
