Eric Fleming: Gil Favor

Quotes 

• Clay Forrester : The way I see it, a trail boss who really knows his business, doesn't need much more than a good lead steer.

  Gil Favor : I'd have said a good set of brains wouldn't do no harm.

• Rowdy Yates : Do you think he's half as good as he thinks he is.

  Gil Favor : One way to find out. Work him!

• Clay Forrester : Finished up a Major.

  Gil Favor : Ah, that figures.

  Clay Forrester : And then right back to nothing. No more war, so no more commission. Good enough to get killed but not good enough to keep. Except as a Corporal.

  Gil Favor : And you don't like riding drag.

  Clay Forrester : For anybody.

  Gil Favor : Plenty of good chances after the way.

  Clay Forrester : A lot of good majors too. Just like me. Chances were all at the bottom.

  Gil Favor : Is drifting any better?

  Clay Forrester : I can never tell where I'm gonna end up.

• Wishbone : Well, if he thinks he's gonna get anything to eat, he's got another thing coming. Get it when it's here, or you don't get it at all. That goes for every- What kind of scouting trip do you suppose that one was?

  Gil Favor : You warm up a cup of coffee for the young lady?

  Wishbone : Coffee? Well, sure.

  [to Mushy] 

  Wishbone : What you doing with that?

  Mushy : You told me...

  Gil Favor : Never mind what I told you. Get a clean cup and don't forget the saucer.

  Wishbone : Saucer?

  Wishbone : Yes! A saucer!

• Gil Favor : Say, that was quite a speech, Clay. Didn't think you'd get so het up about anything.

  Clay Forrester : Mmm. She rubbed me the wrong way.

  Gil Favor : So I noticed. You know, it's a funny thing though how people most hate most in others what they most hate in themselves.
