• Paladin : Well, Hey Boy, if the city fathers of Hogtooth have hired three gunmen to bring them peace, law and order, they will surely need one more gunman to drive the first three out.

• Paladin : Sounds like a 45, doesn't it?

  Kid Morrissey : No, more like a 38.

  Floyd Perrin : [Perrin fires at the ground six times]  That's a 45!

• Kid Morrissey : Paladin, there's a saying: Thunder and lightning is done, 'tis the vultures who'll emerge from their hole as dry and as unruffled.

  Paladin : Clanahan, would you like to see some feathers fly?

  Kid Morrissey : Aye.

  Paladin : I haven't been paid yet. Come on.

• Paladin : [in HOGTOOTH CITY PEACE PROSPERITY AIR POP. 821]  Well, what's an Irishman without a cause?

  Blacksmith Clanahan : Or a cause without an Irishman. Well, now, you're an intelligent man.

  Hotel Proprietor Partridge : Sure, sure, never mind the posies.

• Blacksmith Clanahan : I have spoken many a beautiful phrase upholding the flag and the sacred constitution. But do I say I'll be going in there with yer? And make a lovely donnybrooke of it? I do not.

  Paladin : [upon hearing fireworks]  Clanahan, with the aid of your cluttering tongue, and perhaps a little diversionary action, it's possible that no one will die this fine day at all.
