• Lawyer Daggett : Am I addressing Marshal Reuben J. Cogburn?

  Rooster Cogburn : You're addressing him, Chen Lee and General Sterling Price.

  Lawyer Daggett : Well... I'll not ask which is which. But I'll identify myself: I am lawyer J. Noble Daggett.

  Rooster Cogburn : I'll be damned!

  Lawyer Daggett : What?

  Rooster Cogburn : Well, you're not... exactly what we expected. You're a little... You're shrunk!

  Lawyer Daggett : I'll tell you frankly. I fully intended to have you jailed, and I'm just the man who could do it. But when Mattie told me the straight of the matter, I had second thoughts. I still think you showed poor judgment in this affair, but you're not the scoundrel I took you for. You have my thanks and, with certain reservations, my respect.
