Ladies of the Town (1961)

Barry Sullivan: Pat Garrett

Quotes 

• Pat Garrett : Look, Cleary, you've been around long enough to know what happens when law hits a boomtown like Silver Creek.

  Jason Cleary : I heard Wild Bill Hickok say the same thing in Deadwood but it didn't mean much after Jack McCall put a bullet in his head.

  Pat Garrett : Yeah. I saw them hang Jack McCall.

• Sal : Here's to yesterday, Pat.

  Pat Garrett : I'd rather drink to today.

  Sal : That badge you're wearing has five points and everyone of them can scratch. I'd rather remember when it wasn't between us.

  Pat Garrett : I could take it off.

  Sal : Yes you could, but you couldn't take off everything it stands for.

• Sal : Thanks anyway, Pat, but I'll be on the noon stage. There's nothing here for me.

  Pat Garrett : Now, Sal, this town could use an honest place... and a woman like you.

  Sal : Would it matter to you if I stayed?

  Pat Garrett : Let's just say it might matter if you left. Is that enough of an answer?

  Sal : It'll do until the right one comes along.
