Quotes 

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : You boys ever draw on anybody?

  Travis Blue : No, sir. Just snakes.

  [later, after Travis shoots Clegg] 

  Elder Wiggs : I thought you never drew on a man?

  Travis Blue : That's right, sir. Only on snakes.

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : Ma boys - y' killed ma boys.

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : They ain't gonna whip no Cleggses.

  Travis Blue : Whippin's better than a scalpin'.

  Uncle Shiloh Clegg : Ain't gonna be no scalpin' neither.

  Sandy : How are you gonna stop it, Uncle Shiloh?

  [points to gun-totting Navahos] 

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : Reese! We don't wanna have any trouble with the Wagon Master, now, do we?

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : Ain't likely any posse will look for us in a Mormon wagon train, now, is it?

  [takes a swig] 

  Uncle Shiloh Clegg : That's good drinkin' liquor.

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : Me and the boys seen your fire, scared at first you might be Navajo. Then I heard your mountain music. I said to Floyd here: ''Wherever there's singing and dancing, you can be sure there's Christian folks.'' Never did know a bad man that had any music in him.

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : I'm tellin' you for the last time, Elder, if there's any trouble, I just gotta kill you. Now, where's that Wagon Master and that carrot-headed kid?

• Uncle Shiloh Clegg : Well, Elder, when you get over in that pretty valley he's talking about, I guess we won't see you no more. And you won't have no Cleggses to tie to wagon wheels and whip.
