The Missouri Breaks

"[after killing a man, dressed in a bonnet and shawl] Grannys tired now."

"Id like almost anythin better n bein burnt up."

"Well, youre about the last of your kind, old man. If I was a better businessman than I am a man hunter, Id put you in the circus."

"Why dont we just take a walk and well just talk about the Wild West and how to get the hell out of it!"

"The closer you get to Canada, the more thingsll eat your horse."

"The first time I met Sandy, he was rustling on his own. He had a stolen cavalry pony and he kept this dog. As soon as he would kill a steer, why hed cut the brand off and feed it to the dog. So before they could get enough evidence to convict him, theyd have to lock that dog up and pick through his shit for a week before they could find the brand."

"[to Clayton, whispering] You know what woke you up? You just had your throat cut."

"Richard Bradford - Pete Marker"

"Marlon Brando - Robert E. Lee Clayton"

"David Braxton: This is my fourth frontier and I know how they run. I was in the California gold fields before I was eighteen, I was at the rush at Alder Gulch and I went with the grazing committee to South America. These long ropers in the Missouri Breaks are a mixed bag: barbers from Minneapolis, failed grangers, Scandinavian half-breeds, wolfers and woodcutters, dishonest apprentices, raftsmen, poisoners - you give them a chance and theyll waste everything!"

"Luana Anders - Hellsgate ranchers wife"

"We had a famous painter out here last year... did last scenes. That man must have painted ten squares miles of canvas... and not one human face! And I wish he could have been here to paint that boy, Sandy, hanging up there so decoratively against the mountains. Because his pink tongue and his white face would have just set off the green of Montana splendidly. I mean, it would have made the damnedest bank calendar you ever saw!"
