• Gil Favor : Better keep talking, they're still up there.

  Wishbone : I don't know what to say.

  Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : Tell 'em how goodlooking I am.

  Wishbone : We was both goodlooking, the both of us.

  Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : Tell 'em about my character.

  Wishbone : Like I was saying, Lord, he was a good man. And he could ride a horse like nothing you'd ever saw. He was always good to women, and children, and widows, and especially widows. And fast on the draw, oh Lord, how he could draw. But only in the cause of righteousness. Are they still there, Mr Favor?

  Gil Favor : Yeah.

  Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : You'd better start shovelling, or they'll never leave.

  Gil Favor : All right, stake him in.

  Wishbone : And bless this drive, O Lord.

  Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : You don't have to do it like you mean it.

• Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : I ain't dead, they're just burying me.

• Wishbone : You lead an interesting life, Little Brother.

  Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : I'll pay you back the three dollars soon as I get strength enough to open my war bag.

  Wishbone : Well, I hope you got strength enough to explain a few other things. Seeing as how you're not a tinker, just what are you, Little Brother.

  Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : Not now, Little Brother. You never saw such a tuckered out man as I am.

  Wishbone : Well, all right. Get in the wagon and I'll call you up for supper.

  Thomas Jefferson Wishbone : Thanks, Little Brother.
