• Maish Rennick : The doc says you've had it. No more!

  Harlan 'Mountain' McClintock : So what'll I do?

  Maish Rennick : Well, I dunno, you do whatever you wanna do! Anything you like! It's as easy as that!

  Harlan 'Mountain' McClintock : No, no, no no! I mean a guy's gotta DO something!

• Doctor : [after examining 'The Mountain' McClintock]  The Mountain and I will retire this week.

  Maish Rennick : What do you mean?

  Doctor : No more. He's through.

  Maish Rennick : Hold on, I could let him rest up, I got nothing scheduled for him!

  Doctor : He can rest up for the rest of his life.

  Maish Rennick : What are you talking about? He spends fourteen years in the ring, suddenly he gets a little cut, and you want to put him out to pasture?

  Doctor : Suddenly? It doesn't go fourteen years and then 'suddenly'. It's never one cut, it's fourteen years of cuts!

• Maish Rennick : Army, be there at least, will you? I mean don't- don't leave him alone.

  Army : I can't leave him alone. He'll do it for you even if I'm not there. So I'll be there.
