[first lines]
[the train carrying the Deputy Sheriff and his prisoner, Jim Larsen, pulls into the depot at Porter]
Deputy Sheriff:
We'll be in Porter for a few minutes. Want some air, Jim?
Jim Larsen:
Why don't you get off without me?
Deputy Sheriff:
I'd be lonely.

Reed Williams:
Mister, you're butting into something that doesn't concern you. Either you're extra good with that gun, or you're bluffing.
Jim Larsen:
All you gotta do is figure out which it is.
|
|
Mark Riley:
I never did thank you. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have gotten married.
Jim Larsen:
As long as you're thankin' me and not blamin' me, you're welcome.
|

Ellen Bailey:
You look different... bigger.
Jim Larsen:
Well, maybe it's the gun. It would make anyone look bigger.
|
|
Reed Williams:
Riley, if I have to kill you, I don't much care whether it's tomorrow or now. You can save us both time by starting the trouble now.
|
|
Mark Riley:
Are you trying to tell me I should ask her to marry me now? Tonight?
Jim Larsen:
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
Mark Riley:
Don't you realize that I might be killed in the morning?
Jim Larsen:
Anybody can be killed... any day.
Mark Riley:
Anybody is me! Any day is tomorrow!

|
Mark Riley:
Now, no one is as important enough to walk wherever he wants. He's bound to run into something that will stop him.
|
|
Ellen Bailey:
Why didn't you leave tonight, Ray?
Jim Larsen:
Oh, I just couldn't seem to get started.
Ellen Bailey:
I've heard men say that the first part of the journey is often the hardest.
Jim Larsen:
Yeah, I guess it is.
Ellen Bailey:
Why is that?
Jim Larsen:
Oh, I don't know... different reasons.
Ellen Bailey:
Is it ever because you're afraid to start out from one place to another... to try something different... even if it's bad?
