Quotes

The Gunfighter

Edit
  • Marshal Mark Strett: Somebody after you?
  • Jimmy Ringo: Three somebodies.
  • Marshal Mark Strett: The law?
  • Jimmy Ringo: Naw, this is personal.
  • Marshal Mark Strett: I don't want 'em to catch up with you here.
  • Jimmy Ringo: I don't want 'em to catch up with me anywhere.
  • Jimmy Ringo: You're Hunt Bromley, ain't ya?
  • Hunt Bromley: Yeah. You heard of me already?
  • Jimmy Ringo: Yeah, I heard about you. I heard you're a cheap, no-good, bar-room loafer. If I didn't have somethin' else on my mind, I'd take them guns away from ya and slap ya cross-eyed.
  • Eddie: He don't look so tough to me.
  • Bit Part: Well, if he ain't so tough, there's been an awful lot of sudden natural deaths in his vicinity.
  • Jimmy Ringo: Why don't you button up your britches and go home?
  • Jimmy Ringo: How come I've got to run into a squirt like you nearly every place I go these days? What are you trying to do? Show off for your friends?
  • Peggy Walsh: When did you get this idea, Jim?
  • Jimmy Ringo: Well, I didn't *get* it, it just kinda came over me. The way gettin' older comes over ya. All of a sudden, you look at things different than the way ya did five years ago. All of a sudden, I knew this was the only thing in the world I wanted.
  • Peggy Walsh: How different?
  • Molly: The way Bucky was different that last year. You know, not wild anymore. Just sorry.
  • Peggy Walsh: And what good did it do Bucky?
  • Molly: None, I guess.
  • Card Player: [after Bromnley storms out to challenge RIngo] He never was much fun to have around, anyway.
  • Jimmy Ringo: [to Archie, the boy sweeping up the saloon] You got a livery stable here, boy?
  • Archie: [just stares at Jimmy Ringo]
  • Mac: Uh, he's a little astonished, Jimmy.
  • Jimmy Ringo: When you get him un-astonished, tell him to take care of my horse.
  • Jimmy Ringo: What was I supposed to do, stand there and let that little boy shoot me full of holes?
  • Jimmy Ringo: Well, didn't he... didn't he leave you anything?
  • Molly: Mmm-hmm. A horse, a saddle, two guns and fifteen dollars.
  • Peggy Walsh: How does he look?
  • Marshal Mark Strett: Oh, about the same, I guess. A little older, a little tireder.
  • Jimmy Ringo: [Later] How does she look?
  • Marshal Mark Strett: Oh, about the same, I guess. A little older, but just as pretty as ever.
  • Jimmy Ringo: What about my boy? Does he think I'm a hero?
  • Marshal Mark Strett: No. Matter of fact, I heard he's a Wyatt Earp man.
  • Jimmy Ringo: Earp? Why, you shoulda taught him better than that!
  • Marshal Mark Strett: Me? And where was you this whole time?
  • Jimmy Ringo: Now turn around and head for the door. Keep movin' and don't do anything sudden with your hands.
  • Hunt Bromley: I'll be seein' ya, Mister Ringo...
  • Jimmy Ringo: All the way outside, sonny.
  • Jimmy Ringo: What about this? Ain't some of you fellas in charge of this donkey?
  • Bit Part: Eddie don't mean no real harm, Mr. Ringo.
  • Jimmy Ringo: Then let Eddie keep his big, ugly nose out of my business if he don't want to get it slapped.
  • Deputy Charlie Norris: He don't look so tough to me.
  • Marshal Mark Strett: Yeah, yeah. That's the way it always starts. He don't look so tough to somebody.
  • Deputy Charlie Norris: Except with this somebody, it's gonna stop right there, too.
  • Marshal Mark Strett: You better. Because with a man like that, you can't come off much better than second.
  • Hunt Bromley: Looks like everybody's drawing behind your back these days.
  • Deputy Charlie Norris: All the smart ones.
  • Crowd Extra: I seen better fights than this at a prayer meeting.
  • Mrs. Devlin: That murderers sitting over in that saloon like he was an honored guest or... or something.
  • Deputy Charlie Norris: You think I should go across there and find out what's goin' on?
  • Mac: Didn't Mark tell you to stay here?
  • Deputy Charlie Norris: Thank you.
