Cheyenne : Ma'am, it seems to me you ain't caught the idea.
Jill : Of course I have. I'm here alone in the hands of a bandit who smelled money. If you want to, you can lay me over the table and amuse yourself, and even call in your men. Well, no woman ever died from that. When you're finished, all I'll need will be a tub of boiling water and I'll be exactly what I was before - with just another filthy memory!
Cheyenne : [sighs] You make good coffee, at least?

Jill : [carrying around Brett's photograph] You wake up one morning and say "World, I know you. From now on there are no more surprises," and then you happen to meet a man like this, who looked like a good man - clear eyes, strong hands - and he wants to marry you, which doesn't happen often, and he says he's rich, too, which doesn't hurt.

Barman : What can I do for you, ma'am?
Jill : I would like some water, if it's no trouble.
Barman : Water? Well, you see, that word is poison around these parts ever since the days of the great flood.
Jill : You mean you never wash?
Barman : We sure do!
Jill : Well, I'd like to use the same facilities you people do.
Barman : You sure can. Just happen to have a full tub in the back. And you're lucky. Only 3 people have used it this morning.
Jill : Used it one at a time or all together?

Jill : You don't look at all like the noble defender of poor defenseless widows. But then again, I don't look like a poor defenseless widow.
