• Hap Johnson : Well, that settles it, Tooky boy. I'll see you in Tahiti.

  Tooky : You really leaving, Hap?

  Hap Johnson : You betcha I am. You can have my share of Comanche and my compliments too.

• Hap Johnson : You oughta be back East robbing widows and orphans.

• Hap Johnson : Mr Watson, just between two fine gentlemen, you ain't nothing but an out and out thief.

  Coats Watson : Who's trying to sell stolen Army goods? I'm taking a big chance just keeping it on my premises. If you don't like the offer, you can go to the next place, and I reckon you know how far that is.

• Hap Johnson : Fella sold it to me so it's all legal like.

  Wishbone : Oh, I bet.

  Hap Johnson : Aw, now, Wish, do you doubt my veracity?

  Wishbone : Yes, I do. I been thinking, Mr Johnson, I don't remember you back in Nacogdoches, and I don't think you remember me. I don't know what your game is but I don't like the smell of it. So I'm not gonna do any kind of business with you.

• Ellie Kurtz : We're just lucky, I guess.

  Hap Johnson : How's that?

  Ellie Kurtz : Well, we haven't come across any dishonest men, like I thought you was when I first saw you. But you're nice, almost as nice as Rowdy.

  [But Hap is not] 

• Hap Johnson : O, that Rowdy fella was surely right about you.

  Ellie Kurtz : What'd he say?

  Hap Johnson : Why, just that you were the prettiest thing west of New York.

  Ellie Kurtz : Honest?

  Hap Johnson : You betcha. And I'd put it a little further my own self. Maybe even Paris or France or somewhere's like that.

• Hap Johnson : Dreaming's all right. Just so's you don't use it to run away with. You always got to remember what's real. And what's important. Why, you got to appreciate what you got.

  Ellie Kurtz : What I got?

  Hap Johnson : Why, you got life. Ain't no use to be worrying about dying. Not now, not never. There's time enough for that when it happens.

• Hap Johnson : I'm just a rolling stone, I guess I'll be rolling on.

• Hap Johnson : Just 'cos I don't want to spend all my days in an Army barracks, don't make no criminal.

  Rowdy Yates : Well, it won't be long for you the way you're going. You won't amount to anything.
