Quotes 

  • Jug : You hit that fellow from behind?

    Latigo : Just as hard as I could!

  • Jug : You know, I may not have too much of a chance with Swifty Morgan. But suppose I down him?

    Latigo : Well, suppose you don't? And the odds are a thousand to one you won't. Well, you'll just end up an unknown character under a wooden cross on Boot Hill.

    Jug : Well, everybody winds up dead sooner or later.

    Latigo : Well, the smart ones try to postpone it as long as possible.

  • Jug : He called me "Swifty."

    Latigo : Yeah, that's short and friendly for Swifty Morgan. That's who they think you are. And they're willin' to PAY to back up that mistaken idea.

    Jug : [Shocked]  I'm supposed to pretend I'm Swifty Morgan?... Good Bye!

    Latigo : They're willin' to pay!

    Jug : How much?

    Latigo : Thousand dollars. We'll split it fifty-fifty. That means FOUR HUNDRED for you.

    Jug : [Ponders for a second]  Seems fair. But I think that...

    Latigo : No, no you don't. That's part of the deal. I do the thinkin'. You stand around and look tough.

  • Jug : [Last lines]  Now, the way this story ends: those two go to Denver to get married. Patience - she never does get to go to Miss Hunter's college on the Hudson River, New York, but seven of her daughters do. Taylor Barton - he gets his flat fixed and marries Miss Abigail. The Colonel goes broke. Swifty Morgan's still trying to get his boots off. And me, I go on to become a big star in Italian westerns.

  • Latigo : [Annoyed that Jug has just used up the 100 dollars he had given him earlier, including giving much of it to some woman]  You gave her the money?

    Jug : Seemed like the thing to do...

    Latigo : But, you idiot! Don't you know that's the surest way to make an enemy out of a woman, givin' her money?

    Jug : [Confused]  It is?

    Latigo : Oh, I learned that a long time ago.

  • Taylor Barton : [Upon seeing Lat Smith and Jug]  Young man, about that job I want you to do...

    Latigo : [Annoyed]  I told you not to bother me, mister.

    Jug : [Eagerly]  The man said something about a job!

    Latigo : I don't like work. It tires me out.

  • Latigo : Like I said: a man should spread happiness as he walks through life.

    Jug : I think we've been spreadin' it a little thick.

  • Jug : I may not have much of a chance with Swifty Morgan, but suppose I down him?

    Latigo : Well, supposing you don't? And the odds are 1,000 to 1 that you won't. You'll just end up an unknown character under a wooden cross on Boot Hill.

    Jug : Everybody winds up dead sooner or later.

    Latigo : Well, us smart ones try to postpone it as long as possible!

  • Jug : My horse went first, then my saddle. But I'm sober now, and what I got left is these here spurs.

  • Latigo : I just don't like horses.

    Jug : Well, that's close to treason in these parts.
