Quotes2

  • [in the storeroom at Meacham's trading post, the soldiers find boxes marked "Bibles" - Col. Thursday tells the men to open them - when they do, they find kegs of whiskey instead]
  • Sgt. Quincannon: Bibles, sir!
  • Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: [Col. Thursday hands a cup to Sgt. Mulcahy] Sergeant, pour me some scripture.
  • [Sgt. Mulcahy dips the cup into a keg and hands it to Col. Thursday. He takes a sip and spits it out]
  • Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: What's in this? Brimstone and sulfur?
  • Silas Meacham: You know what it is and I'm entitled to keep it.
  • Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: Your license may permit you to keep a medicinal store of whiskey, but this is no whiskey.
  • Silas Meacham: Perhaps you're not used to frontier whiskey.
  • Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: I don't know... I've tasted most everything.
  • [to Sgt. Mulcahy]
  • Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: Sergeant, you a judge of whiskey?
  • First Sgt. Festus Mulcahy: [looks around at the others] Uh, well, sir, some people say I am and some say I'm not, sir.
  • Lt. Col. Owen Thursday: [hands him the cup] Tell me what you make of this.
  • First Sgt. Festus Mulcahy: [takes a drink - makes a face at Meacham - takes another drink] Well, uh, it's better than no whiskey at all, sir.
  • [Beaufort is addressing a group of new recruits]
  • Sgt. Johnny Beaufort: Gentlemen, this is a horse. You will observe it has no saddle. The reason it has no saddle is because it'll be easier for you to stay on without the saddle. Now, before we progress... did any of you gentlemen have the honor of serving with the Southern arms during the late War Between The States?
  • Recruit: Yes, sir. I had the pride, sir, of serving with Bedford Forrest.
  • Sgt. Johnny Beaufort: I am proud to shake your hand.
  • Recruit: Thank you, sir.
  • Sgt. Johnny Beaufort: I hope you have the pleasure of buying me a drink on your next payday.
  • Recruit: An honor, sir.
  • Sgt. Johnny Beaufort: You are now an acting corporal.
  • First Sgt. Festus Mulcahy: Just a minute!
  • Sgt. Quincannon: Aw, let him have one.
