Quotes 

• Rosa : Why didn't you tell me you play the piano?

  Velvet Clark : Because it doesn't any difference to anyone but me.

  Rosa : But you must have a reason and I want to know why. You better tell me.

  Velvet Clark : I stopped!

  Rosa : But why?

  Velvet Clark : Because I wanted to be the best. It takes money for lessons; I didn't have any. You know what it's like to have talent - a lot of talent? I tried to kill mine... but it wouldn't die. I hate it, but sometimes I just got to play.

• [before he can see who he's shooting at, Velvet fires a round at Mike] 

  Mike Ryan : You're as touchy as a girl.

  Velvet Clark : Always ready for company.

  Mike Ryan : You don't encourage any.

• Rosa : You aren't afraid of anything are you?

  Velvet Clark : Not anything that's alive.

  Rosa : Well, we won't raise the dead, will we?

• [unknowingly, the farm girl picks up Velvet's bag of loot] 

  Farm Girl : My, this is heavy!

  Velvet Clark : It's got everything I need.
