• Pete Nolan : When beeves start heading for Sedalia on their own, I'm gonna quit.

  Gil Favor : They start going on their own, you're fired.

• Pete Nolan : Your scout, huh? I guess you know you're going into Comanche country in about ten miles?

  Binnaburra : Wrong.

  Pete Nolan : What do you mean wrong?

  Binnaburra : Wrong! Comanche all 'round here.

• Teddy : Wait a minute, Jim. I think I see what you're doing wrong. Now look. Try turning your wrist over before you let it go. See.

  Rowdy Yates : I have turned it over and under and inside out and it still goes as straight as a bullet.

  Teddy : Now I'll show you what I mean. Stand back.

  [His throw of the boomerang goes all of three yards] 

  Teddy : Well, we know one thing, it ain't the wrist.

  Pete Nolan : Bunch of two year old kids throwing 'em crooked things around.

  Teddy : Can you do it?

  Pete Nolan : I wouldn't waste my time.

  [Wish makes a perfect throw and his crooked thing comes back to him]
