Quotes 

• Paladin : Well, unfortunately, you can't be allowed to go around killing everybody you don't like.

  Manfred Holt : Yeah, it does sound like I got me some bad habits.

• Manfred Holt : Oh and, Paladin, don't try anything fancy like wingin' a shoulder or the leg. You know, a man like me you either kill or he kills you.

  Paladin : I know.

  Manfred Holt : That pump, when the next drop of water falls.

• Sheriff Jake Ludlow : Hang later, shoot now. What's the difference?

  Paladin : That's an interesting question, Sheriff. What is the difference between murder and justice?

• Paladin : The way a man dies is less important than the way he lives.

• Manfred Holt : What does Manfred stand for?

  Paladin : It's an old German name. It means man of peace.

  Manfred Holt : Man of peace? What do you know.

• Paladin : I'm taking you back to Laramie.

  Manfred Holt : To be hung at a county fair while they hawk buttons off my shirt. Thanks.

• Paladin : He alone?

  Sheriff Jake Ludlow : He's got a saddle horse and a pack horse.

  Paladin : Apparently you don't need any help from me.

  Sheriff Jake Ludlow : Unless you want to speed things things up a little and dig a grave.

  Paladin : Holt might surrender.

  Sheriff Jake Ludlow : You don't think I'm gonna spend two weeks on the road to Laramie with Holt? He's already killed two of my deputies.

  Paladin : And outsmarted you a few times.

• Paladin : Hubert's a fine old name. It means bright mind. A good name for a scholar.

  Manfred Holt : My boy ain't gonna be no scholar. He's gonna be a man. I'll set him off on the right foot when I get there and I give him his present.

  Paladin : I'm sure you will, Holt.

  Manfred Holt : Hey, ah, my front name's Manfred, you know, Manfred.
