Quotes 

• Bill Longley : You ridin' on soon, Brazos?

  Brazos Kid : Well, there's only one thing stoppin' me from doin' just that. Her name's Annie.

  Bill Longley : And how long do you think she'll keep you here?

  Brazos Kid : I reckon I could ask you the same question, Bill. I think it's pretty clear we fell the same way about her.

  Bill Longley : Jealous, Brazos?

  Brazos Kid : No, not tonight. I'm going to ask Anne to marry me. Let's see you top that play, Bill!

• [Bill has just arrested Craven for shooting his deputy] 

  Poker Alice : Take him over to my place. We'll get a doctor.

  Bill Longley : He'll do better somewhere else. Take him to Sheriff Tobin's.

  Poker Alice : Craven was on his own, Bill! You must know that.

  Bill Longley : Yeah. He'll hang on his own, too.

• Wild Jack Tobin : El Sombro has run the whole border, including Rio Nada, and yet nobody knows who he is.

  Bill Longley : Well, closing Rio Nada has pinched him where it hurt. It'll force him to a showdown and I've got a hunch that it will be soon.

  Anne Banner : And that'll be the end of your job here, Bill?

  Bill Longley : My job ends when the people of this town stand up to El Sombro and his kind.
