- Lane: If anyone tries to cross that river before we're out of sight - baptize 'em.
- Mrs. Lowe: That's all you do, isn't it, Mr. Lane? Drift.
- Lane: You could say that.
- Mrs. Lowe: It doesn't seem like much of a life.
- Lane: It's not.
- Mrs. Lowe: Then, why do you do it?
- Lane: It's what I'm good at.
- Lane: I hate to have to tell you this, Ben, but whether you like it or not. you're a man and you're stuck with it. You'll find yourself standing your ground and fightin' when you oughtta run, speakin' out when you oughtta keep your mouth shut, doin' things that seem wrong to a lot of people but you'll do them all the same.
- Ben Young: You mean like talkin' up for me in Tucson?
- Lane: They were wrong.
- Ben Young: Not if I ain't all the things you think I am. Not if I turn and run.
- Lane: You won't. You're gonna spend the rest of your life gettin' up one more time than you're knocked down, so you better start gettin' used to it.
- Lane: I got a saddle that's older than you are, Mrs. Lowe.

- Grady: Where you goin'?
- Lane: Where the hell do you suppose? To rob a train!
- Jesse: Rob a train?
- Grady: It's something to do!
- Lane: Gold has a way of bringing out the larceny in all of us, Mrs. Lowe.
- Mrs. Lowe: That's why I'm along, Mr. Lane. And that's why I'll stay along.
- Calhoun: What about the woman?
- Lane: What about her?
- Calhoun: She part of it?
- Lane: She's all of it.
- Calhoun: What's that supposed to mean?
- Lane: None of your damn business.
- Calhoun: We got a right to know what we're getting into.
- Lane: A grave more than likely if you come along with us.
- Calhoun: Then why should we?
- Lane: Beats the hell outta me!
- Calhoun: Someone said this gold was already dug.
- Lane: Keep digging.
- Sam Turner: All we want to know is what we rode here for.
- Lane: What a gun rides anywhere for - money. The more of it the more chances you take.
- Mrs. Lowe: Maybe they'll give it up.
- Lane: They should - can't shoot worth a damn.
- Lane: [referring to Mrs. Lowe] You reckon she's drowning?
- Jesse: [dryly and unconcerned] Sure does look like it.
- Grady: Just like old times, huh?
- Lane: Like hell, it is.
- Mrs. Lowe: It's not a joke, Mr. Lane.
- Lane: I tried to tell you that before we left the train station.
- Lane: Grady, where did you find these two peckerwoods?
- Grady: They're standing up to you. That should prove something.
- Lane: I don't need them standing up to me. I need them standing alongside of me.
- Grady: Don't you think it's about time?
- Lane: All right. A train robbery...
- Jesse: Talking that woman out of going to the railroad - you might have talked her into getting herself killed.
- Lane: You let me worry about the woman.
- Lane: The pants aren't bad. That shirt - ought to be tighter. Take it off and I'll boil it.
- Mrs. Lowe: Boil it?
- Lane: Shrink it up. I want you to kinda stick out in the right places so that if anybody a long ways off sees you, there'll be no doubt you're a woman.
- Jesse: Hold it! I hate to cross you, Lane.
- Lane: Then don't.
- Jesse: I've got to. We just run from a fight. That's a bad habit for a man to get into that makes his way with a gun.
- Lane: There are 20 of them back there, Jesse.
- Jesse: I'd say they were a little shorthanded.
