- Ruth: Hey, how come you're planted so cozy with Garrett all of a sudden? He usually doesn't take well to bounty hunters.
- Josh Randall: All I did was ask him to tell me about the time he killed Billy the Kid.
- Ruth: That'd do it.
- Josh Randall: [Josh addresses the sheriff who is running him out of town] Pat, now what's the matter, really?
- Sheriff Pat Garret: What do you mean?
- Josh Randall: Well, we've been friends for a long time. Now why this push?
- Sheriff Pat Garret: Josh, Dallas I'll drink with you; Denver I'll stand by you in a fight, but I live here. These people don't understand me being friendly with a bounty hunter.
- Josh Randall: Does it make that much difference what they think?
- Sheriff Pat Garret: Like I said - I live here.
- Josh Randall: Well, I'm not lookin' for trouble, Pat.
- Sheriff Pat Garret: Trouble has a way of finding you.
- Gar Foley: You think I don't know who she is?
- Josh Randall: Y'know, I hardly ever think about you at all.
