Quotes
-
Tagg Oakley : Do they really put live snakes in their mouths?
Annie Oakley : Yes, Tagg, but it's a religious ceremony. A prayer to the gods for rain. You know, they're an agricultural tribe, the men till the soil, and the women are expert at weaving baskets and making pottery.
-
Sergeant O'Hara : Who's in command around here?
Tagg Oakley : My uncle Luke's the Sheriff.
Annie Oakley : Uncle Luke is away this week.
Sergeant O'Hara : Well, who's in charge when the Sheriff's not here?
Annie Oakley : His Deputy, Lofty Craig.
Tagg Oakley : Lofty's out of town too.
Sergeant O'Hara : Well, who's in charge when he's not here?
Annie Oakley : Well, I guess I am.
Sergeant O'Hara : Hmph! I suppose when the blonde's out of town, the office is run by this kid here. Who runs the office when you're not here? The Easter Bunny?
-
Tagg Oakley : Annie, can a blacksmith remember what kind of shoes he puts on a horse?
-
Annie Oakley : Indians don't use blacksmiths.
Tagg Oakley : Then who shoes their horses?
Annie Oakley : Nobody. Their horses don't wear shoes.
Tagg Oakley : But the horses, they all wore iron shoes. I even found one.
-
Tagg Oakley : BOY, WILL ANNIE BE GLAD TO SEE YOU!
Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : She will, huh. Ah, did she say that?
Tagg Oakley : YOU BET SHE DID!
Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : What exactly did your sister say about me?
Tagg Oakley : Let me see.
Deputy Sheriff Lofty Craig : Her exact words now.
-
Sergeant O'Hara : [about Annie wearing his Sergeant's uniform] Well, if she don't scare the Indians back to the Reservation, nobody can.
Tagg Oakley : Well, I'll say.
Annie Oakley : No remarks from you, O'Hara. Let's have a little dignity on this post.
