Quotes
-
Tector Gorch : Silver rings.
Dutch Engstrom : [upset] "Silver rings", your butt! Them's washers! Damn!
Lyle Gorch : Washers. Washers. We shot our way out of that town for a dollar's worth of steel holes!
Pike Bishop : They set it up.
Lyle Gorch : "They"? Who in the hell is "they?"
Sykes : [laughs hysterically] "They"? Why, they is the plain and fancy they, that's who "they" is! Caught you, didn't they? Tied a tin can to your tail. Led you in and waltzed you out again. Oh my, what a bunch! Big tough ones, hunh? Here you are with a handful of holes, a thumb up your ass, and a big grin to pass the time of day with. They? Who the hell is "they?"
Pike Bishop : Railroad men... bounty hunters... Deke Thornton.
-
Pike Bishop : [sarcastically] You boys want to move on or stay here and give him a - decent burial?
Tector Gorch : He was a good man, and I think we oughta bury him.
Pike Bishop : He's dead! And he's got a lot of good men back there to keep him company!
Lyle Gorch : Too damn many!
Dutch Engstrom : I think the boys are right. I'd like to say a few words for the dear, dead departed.
[removes his hat]
Dutch Engstrom : And maybe a few hymns'd be in order. Followed by a church supper. With a choir!
Lyle Gorch : You crazy bastards! Both of you!
-
Dutch Engstrom : What's our next move?
Pike Bishop : Well, I figure Agua Verde's the closest... three days maybe. Then get the news and drift back to the border. Maybe a payroll, maybe a bank.
Dutch Engstrom : Maybe that damn railroad.
Tector Gorch : That damn railroad you're talkin' about, sure as hell ain't a-gettin' no easier.
Sykes : And you boys ain't gettin' any younger either!
[laughs]
Pike Bishop : We've got to start thinking beyond our guns. Those days are closin' fast.
-
Pike Bishop : [the Gorches are protesting the dividing up of the loot] Sharin' up will be the same as always.
Lyle Gorch : Well, me and Tector don't think that he
[points at Angel]
Lyle Gorch : oughtta get the same amount. He's just startin' out and this is mine and Tector's openin' for a new territory!
Tector Gorch : That's right, and I figure a share to that old goat
[points at Sykes]
Tector Gorch : for watchin' them horses is damn sure a share too much!
Lyle Gorch : So, we decided; it ain't fair.
Pike Bishop : If you two boys don't like equal shares, why in the hell don't you just take *all* of it?
[pauses]
Pike Bishop : Well, why don't you *answer* me, you damn yellow-livered trash?
Lyle Gorch : [realizing the rest are backing Pike] Now, Pike, you know damn well...
Pike Bishop : [angered] I don't know a damn thing, except I either *lead* this bunch, or end it *right now*!

Lyle Gorch : All your fancy plannin' and talkin' damn near got us shot to pieces over a few lousy bags of washers. Well, this was goin' to be me and Tector's last job before we quit and headed south. We spent all our time and money a-gettin' ready for this!
Pike Bishop : You spent all your time and money runnin' whores in Hondo while I spent my stake settin' it up.
[throws down washer]
Pike Bishop : Hell, I should have been runnin' whores instead of stealin' Army horses.
Lyle Gorch : While you was doin' all that plannin', me and Tector was gettin' our bell rope pulled by two... two, mind you, Hondo whores!
[starts laughing]
Dutch Engstrom : [laughing] And Pike was dreamin' of washers... you were matching whores... in tandem!
Lyle Gorch : What's that?
Tector Gorch : That's one behind t'other.
Lyle Gorch : That's right! That's what we was doin'!
-
Dutch Engstrom : [impressed] Well, I'd say those fellas know how to handle themselves!
Sykes : They been fightin' Apaches for a thousand years; That's a sure way to learn.
Pike Bishop : They ever get armed, with good leaders, this whole country'll go up in smoke!
Sykes : That it will son, that it will.
Lyle Gorch : They made damn fools out of us, Mr. Bishop! Gettin' so a feller can't sleep with both eyes closed for fear of gettin' his throat cut. Where in hell were you?
Tector Gorch : Now you listen to me, Lyle - You get up off your ass and help once in a while, I wouldn'a got caught near s'easy.

Lyle Gorch : [the Bunch is riding into Angel's village] Hey, Angel, why in the hell don't you tell your folks to feed them dogs?
Dutch Engstrom : Won't find very much around here. That damn Huerta scraped it clean.
Angel : I have invited you to my village, to my home. Any disrespect to my family or to my people, I will kill you.
Pike Bishop : Ashamed of having us meet your people?
Angel : Yes. They don't know about my life when I leave the village.
Lyle Gorch : You got a sister?
Angel : Yes.
Lyle Gorch : I'd be proud to make her acquaintance. - And that of your mama too!
Tector Gorch : That goes for your grandma too, Sonny.
-
Angel : [Gazing across the Rio Grande] Mexico lindo.
Lyle Gorch : I don't see nothin' so lindo about it.
Tector Gorch : Just looks like more Texas, as far as I'm concerned.
Angel : Ah, you have no eyes.
-
Tector Gorch : Hey, here comes our sweeties. Ain't them pretty? I don't know about yours, Lyle, but I think I got more than I can handle.
-
Tector Gorch : Damn, Lyle, lookie here. Come on, sweetheart. Let me see your teatsies.
