Quotes 

• Flagg : You gave me your word not to try anything, and the minute I turned my back you almost took my head off.

  McKay : I didn't give you my word - I gave you my promise.

  Flagg : It's the same thing!

  McKay : No it ain't - one's my promise, and the other's my word!

• McKay : Backshootin'! Bushwhackin'! That's all the young ones know these days. They got no pride! They got no honor! It just ain't no fun anymore.

• McKay : You got a privy out back?

  Flagg : What do you mean "out back"? The name of this town is Progress - we got one right here in the house.

  McKay : In the house?

  Flagg : Yeah, it's right there under the staircase.

  McKay : [McKay jiggles the handcuffs; Flagg unlocks them and follows as McKay walks to the staircase]  You gonna hold my hand?

  McKay : [McKay walks into the bathroom and looks around. He pulls the chain on the toilet, which flushes]  Well, I'll be damned.

• McKay : Waco!

  [holds his right hand over his gun, challenging Waco] 

  Waco : You got style, McKay; I'll give you that much.

  McKay : [Waco shoots first and wounds McKay. McKay pivots, fires, and kills Waco]  I thought I could beat 'im.

  Flagg : You beat him.

• McKay : Rawhided? Look who's been rawhided!

• McKay : What'd they do, throw you out for some fancy-pants young dandy?

• McKay : So that's it, ain't it? After all those years, they give you a gold watch and a pat on the back and a kick in the ass, didn't they?

• McKay : They're gone. They're all gone. Smiley was hung, over Tulsa way a few years back. Jessup was killed by the Pinkertons on the Union Pacific. Blanchard was shot in a stud game over in Tombstone. Doc Samuels put a bullet in his own head. They're all gone.

• Mayor Wilker : [talking about the plan to stop the train]  Why don't you take McKay here with you?

  Flagg : He's one of 'em!

  Mary : No he isn't... not any more... are you, Mr. McKay?

  McKay : No, ma'am... not after they shot Grundy...

• McKay : [after the train crashes into a gorge]  Hell of a way to run a railroad.

• McKay : You know something? I do believe one day that man

  [Mayor Wilker] 

  McKay : could be president.

  Flagg : Yeah, he's amazing. There's no getting around it. That's the real twentieth-century man.

• McKay : There's only one plan and it's as plain as the nose on your face. You can't stop the train from comin' to town 'cause they got the telegraph covered. What you gotta do is stop the train from *stoppin* in town.
