- Marshal Matt Dillon: Speener, I'm afraid I've done about all I can for you. Now that it's out, you're sure to get killed. Joe Harpe was pretty well-liked around here, you know. From now on, around Dodge you're as good as dead, Mister! And I don't want the bother of it. Now, suppose you get out of here, huh? Go on, get out of here!
- Marshal Matt Dillon: Let me tell you something, if I were you I would not talk about this around Dodge. A lot of men don't take the idea of blood money.
- Harry Speener: You got no right to talk like that Marshal. I ain't done nothing wrong.
- Marshal Matt Dillon: Shut up, Speener. I'll kill you myself.
