- Brady Hawkes: Poker's a trade, son. And an honest one. It's fellows like you that give gambling a bad name. Like drunks give drinking.
- Brady Hawkes: I've gambled a lotta towns. I've read a lotta faces. Gambling can take hold of a man. You gotta be able to walk away from it.
- Billy Montana: I done pretty good so far. I've been around.
- Brady Hawkes: But not along enought to see what I've seen. Kid, I've seen cowboys gamble their saddles, loggers a winter's wages. Seen men put up the deeds to their homes and their businesses and their futures. Seen those same men blow their brains out after losing everything they own.
- Billy Montana: And heaven on Earth is a Mississippi riverboat.

- Brady Hawkes: Kid, I'll tell you what: if you don't make it as a gambler, you'll real good spreading fertilizer.
- Brady Hawkes: The question is... which two of you are willing to take the bullets? So the other two can do the cutting.
