McCartney.
McCartney:
Mr. McCartney. Shortgrub, I said a lot of mean things to the boys, didn't I?

Tell them from me, I meant every damn word.

You went out there to talk! Why did you kill that man?
John Henry Thomas:
Conversation just kinda dried up.

D.J. Giles:
Hold on! Wait a minute! I didn't do *anything*!
John Henry Thomas:
I know, but you should have!

[Union Captain allows last escaping wagon to cross river]
Union Sgt. at river:
Sir, I don't...

I know, sergeant! But if I can't have the whole dog, then I don't want the TAIL!
Union Sgt. at river:
Yes, sir.

Col. John Henry Thomas:
[Thomas and Langdon are talking to the Mexican bandit] Is the flap on your holster snapped or unsnapped, my Confederate friend?
Col. James Langdon:
Snapped, my Yankee friend.
Col. John Henry Thomas:
Then, I guess I'm his pigeon.
[Draws and fires as the Mexican goes for his gun]

Col. James Langdon:
[on finding his men still in uiform] Captain, it is my impression that General Robert E. Lee surrendered at Appomattox some weeks ago; yet everywhere I look I see men in uniform with the battle flag still flying! Take it down!

Col. John Henry Thomas:
[Thomas has just learned that the war ended several days before] Major, we just received word that General Lee surrendered three days ago.
Maj. Sanders, CSA:
Yes, sir. We found out yesterday.
Col. John Henry Thomas:
And yet, you still fought us today?
Maj. Sanders, CSA:
Yes, sir.
Col. John Henry Thomas:
Why?
Maj. Sanders, CSA:
Because this is our land, Colonel; and you're still on it. Thank you for your kindness, Colonel.
[Sanders walks back to the Confederate positions]
