Uncle Willie McLeod
- Uncle Willie McLeod: Three men murdered in cold blood! What's the sense to it?
- Jack Lester: We was robbin' a bank!
- Uncle Willie McLeod: I'm a lot older than you, Jack. In my time, I've seen a lot of men with itchy trigger fingers like you - and they're all in Boot Hill with dirt in their face. Somebody cured them of that itch.
- Jack Lester: Would you like a couple of holes in that big fat belly of yours?
- Uncle Willie McLeod: [leaving] You're holdin' up the U.S. mail, and that's a federal offense.
- Cheyenne Rogers: I was just goin' down to look at my horse.
- Uncle Willie McLeod: Steve was in to see his horse a little while ago.
- Uncle Willie McLeod: [laughs] Seems like there thee ain't nuthin' more lonesome than a lonesome horse.
- Uncle Willie McLeod: [Uncle Willie laughs again] Except maybe a lonesome man.
- Cheyenne Rogers: A man don't need to be if the saloon's open.
- The Sheriff: [leaving with Cheyenne as Willie sits on front porch] Good night, Uncle Willie.
- Uncle Willie McLeod: Through with your courtin', boys?
- The Sheriff: For tonight... yeah.
- [he laughs]
- Uncle Willie McLeod: [philisophically] Ah, havin' a daughter's a real trial. Man with a son can get all the sleep he needs, but with a daughter you can't close your eyes 'til everyone's gone home.
- [Steve laughs]
- Uncle Willie McLeod: [referring to Cheyenne] Real bang-up outlaw they say... dangerous afoot, on a horse, or layin' on his back. Wouldn't think so quiet-spoken a fellas as him is bad would yuh?
- Allison McLeod: They say he's a good badman.
- Uncle Willie McLeod: There ain't no such thing. A bad man's bad for himself and for everybody else.
