One of my all time favorite movies. What are your favorite one liners from that movie?

    Miss.Creant is right. Don't have the book memorized, but i have read it over four different times. A helluva lot better than the picture!
    Rule #1: there is no easy wayRule #2: if,in fact, there is an easy way, it's mined (especially in Afghanistan or Kosovo!)

    If I remember right the Indians were Comanche.How about:"Li'l early to be wiggling your bean ain't Jake"Coll to Gus: " you'd argue with a possum"Big buffalo Hunter: "Hez gonna marry ya"Undoubtedly one of the best westens, to depict western life for "a couple of ole wore ot rangers" ;Blue Duck

    (Clarissa)Did you give that boy your name?(Woodrow) I give him my horse.(Clarissa)you give him your horse. (Woodrow)I put a lot more value on the animal.
    (Blue Duck)Ive got better things to do than kill a couple of wore out old rangers, with holes in their underwear.
    (Gus to Peaeye)Tell Woodrow to come arunnin.
    (Woodrow to Gus)You wouldn't kill me for trying to save your life.(Gus) maybe not, but Id damn sure disable you.

    Not to get off of liners,but,I saw a picture of the real Blue Duck..in a three piece suit,seated in a chair,with his lover,Belle Star,standing by his side.She later married an outlaw * named Sam Star..I think my gread grandmother was kin to him.Some of her relatives came here lookin for the man who killed belle star,back in the 1890s.They got shot at,and hauled * back out west..218

    I hope you ain't thrown my leg away.How come you quit the river boat?I was to young and pretty, the whores wouldn't let me alone.Goats or donkeys niether bought nor sold.We don't rent pigs.UVA UVAM VIVENDO VARIA FITWho Abe Lincoln freed was a bunch of Africans, no more American than Call here.I'm as American as the next.Your from Scotland, I know when they brought you over you was still draggin on the tit.First time I read that book was I was on Chejo-do island off of the coast of Korea doing the Army's mountaineering school. I would lay in my bunk reading and laughing my * off. My buddies all thought I was crazy.The movie was the best Robert Duvall has done. What a great job matching actors to characters![This message has been edited by Miss. Creant (edited 01-18-2002).][This message has been edited by Miss. Creant (edited 01-18-2002).]
