  • Pike Bishop: They set it up.
  • Lyle Gorch: "They"? Who in the hell is "they?"
  • Sykes: [laughs hysterically] "They"? Why, they is the plain and fancy they, that's who "they" is! Caught you, didn't they? Tied a tin can to your tail. Led you in and waltzed you out again. Oh my, what a bunch! Big tough ones, hunh? Here you are with a handful of holes, a thumb up your ass, and a big grin to pass the time of day with. They? Who the hell is "they?"

  • Pike Bishop: They ever get armed, with good leaders, this whole country'll go up in smoke!
  • Sykes: That it will son, that it will.
  • Lyle Gorch: They made damn fools out of us, Mr. Bishop! Gettin' so a feller can't sleep with both eyes closed for fear of gettin' his throat cut. Where in hell were you?
  • Tector Gorch: Now you listen to me, Lyle - You get up off your ass and help once in a while, I wouldn'a got caught near s'easy.
  • Pike Bishop: [the Gorches are protesting the dividing up of the loot] Sharin' up will be the same as always.
  • Lyle Gorch: Well, me and Tector don't think that he
  • [points at Angel]
  • Lyle Gorch: oughtta get the same amount. He's just startin' out and this is mine and Tector's openin' for a new territory!

  • Tector Gorch: for watchin' them horses is damn sure a share too much!

  • Pike Bishop: Well, why don't you *answer* me, you damn yellow-livered trash?
  • Lyle Gorch: [realizing the rest are backing Pike] Now, Pike, you know damn well...
  • Pike Bishop: [angered] I don't know a damn thing, except I either *lead* this bunch, or end it *right now*!
  • Lyle Gorch: All your fancy plannin' and talkin' damn near got us shot to pieces over a few lousy bags of washers. Well, this was goin' to be me and Tector's last job before we quit and headed south. We spent all our time and money a-gettin' ready for this!
  • Pike Bishop: You spent all your time and money runnin' whores in Hondo while I spent my stake settin' it up.
  • [throws down washer]
  • Pike Bishop: Hell, I should have been runnin' whores instead of stealin' Army horses.
  • Lyle Gorch: While you was doin' all that plannin', me and Tector was gettin' our bell rope pulled by two... two, mind you, Hondo whores!
  • [starts laughing]
  • Dutch Engstrom: [laughing] And Pike was dreamin' of washers... you were matching whores... in tandem!
  • Lyle Gorch: What's that?
  • Tector Gorch: That's one behind t'other.
  • Lyle Gorch: That's right! That's what we was doin'!
  • Lyle Gorch: [the Bunch is riding into Angel's village] Hey, Angel, why in the hell don't you tell your folks to feed them dogs?
  • Dutch Engstrom: Won't find very much around here. That damn Huerta scraped it clean.
  • Angel: I have invited you to my village, to my home. Any disrespect to my family or to my people, I will kill you.
  • Pike Bishop: Ashamed of having us meet your people?
  • Angel: Yes. They don't know about my life when I leave the village.
  • Lyle Gorch: You got a sister?

  • Angel: Ah, you have no eyes.
  • Pike Bishop: Now, with your permission, I need a bath.
  • Ernst: With my permission, I think you all need a bath.
  • Lyle Gorch: I don't need no bath! What we need is a couple of them women you're hogging. You think you can fix that up for us, boy?
  • Lyle Gorch: Sure ain't your woman no more. Just look at her licking the inside that general's ear.
  • Lyle Gorch: You're crazy! That general would as soon kill us as break wind.
  • Lyle Gorch: Hey, boy, do you know them cuties?
  • Lyle Gorch: [pulls down his "sweeties" top] Hey, Tector, look at them beauties.
