“Why, Ike — whatever do you mean?”
Come on boys. We don’t want any trouble in here. Not in any language.
'Evidently Mr. Ringo's an educated man.'
Doc Holiday has to be a classic American character.
I wonder how much of his legend is true?
“He is speaking in Latin. Now I really hate him.”
You tell em I’m comin, and hell’s comin with me.

“That’s all righ, I have two guns, one for each of you...”

You gonna do somethin’? Or are you just gonna stand there and bleed?
That was Wyat - what game did he take over? I had never heard of it.
Maybe we can get Zapp Brannigan (From Futurama) to take over for Lil Kim.
“Now, like all great plans, my strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it. On my command all ships will line up and file directly into their cannons, clogging them with wreckage.”

You should not worry about it and sleep in. 0 will do the same.
One thing I am sure of in that movie - the roa to riches wasn’t mining, it was Selling to miners.
Selling them anything.
