- Marshal Gib Scott: [to Clay] You know, Nora's sure lucky - having a fellow like you to do all her thinking for her.
- Clay Culhane: Oh Nora, you don't know anything about running a freight line!
- Nora Travers: I didn't know anything about running a hotel either, but I notice you're living there.
- Cassidy Duval: There's two things that can turn my stomach sour. One's bad whisky. The other is working for a woman.
- Nora Travers: You're hurt.
- Marshal Gib Scott: Well, don't waste any time fussing over me now. You can do that later.
- Marshal Gib Scott: How's Santa Fe?
- Clay Culhane: Same as ever.
- Marshal Gib Scott: How's Nora?
- Clay Culhane: Walking on velvet.
- Marshal Gib Scott: Does that mean she got the mail franchise?
- Clay Culhane: She got it.
- Marshal Gib Scott: Well, that's fine!
- Clay Culhane: I've been trying to talk her out of running that freight line.
- Marshal Gib Scott: Why?
- Clay Culhane: It's no job for a woman.
- Marshal Gib Scott: Well, Nora's different.
- Clay Culhane: Not THAT different.
- Marshal Gib Scott: You don't know when you're well off, Cuhane. As long as she has the freight line to fool around with, she'll be happy. There'll be no more of this loco talk about waltzing off to San Francisco.
- Clay Culhane: I figured you might help me talk her out of it, Gib.
- Marshal Gib Scott: Oh, no sir! Not me. I'm proud of her!
- Clay Culhane: I might have known you would be.
