- Lyle Wheeler: What do you think, Slick?
- Slick Callahan: I vote we head down to Old Mexico just as soon as we can.
- Pearl Baker: Well, that sounds great. I'd love a taco right now.
- Hattie Baker: I don't know what I would've done without the good Lord.
- Bobbie Jo Baker: It seems to me, Hattie, that liquor gives you a lot more peace of mind than the Lord, if you ask me.
- Essie Beaumont: Lyle, why don't we just give up now before things go too far?
- Slick Callahan: Your idea sucks.
- Bobbie Jo Baker: [singing] Are you lonely like me? Do you need a friend to lean on? Are you sad cause you dreams, Haven't worked out the way you planned them? Can you smile once for me? I know by the way you look at me, You're lost and afraid, Love is trapped in memory...
- Lyle Wheeler: The difference between self defense and deliberately killing someone in front of a witness is the difference between good and evil, you dummy!
- Magic Ray: Tell me, Lyle, what is it that makes you fight the pigs the way you do?
- Lyle Wheeler: Oh, it was just an accident. Kind of, one thing lead to another.
- Magic Ray: Oh, you mean you didn't set out to start no revolution?
- Lyle Wheeler: No, no, no. I just hit the road, that's all. And the country just kind of rose up and smacked me up side the face.
- Slick Callahan: He knows what's gonna happen, just like I know what's gonna happen. I doesn't really bother me. I'm ready for it. The only thing that bothers me is we're draggin' you into this too.
- Pearl Baker: You ain't draggin' me into nothin'.
- Slick Callahan: Pussywillow, God damn it. I just don't want to see you get hurt, that's all.
- Pearl Baker: Slick, you know all my life everybody's always told me that - that I'm no good, right? And you're the first person who ever told me that I'd ever amount to anything. So, I tell you somethin'. I am not leavin' you. You can go off and do whatever you have to do. But, right now, I just want to do what I want to do.
- Lyle Wheeler: It's never too late. You gotta have dreams and persistence. That's the most important thing. You keep doin' what you want and workin' at it, pretty soon, you're the best. If you believe in yourself.
- Lyle Wheeler: You kinda remind me of somebody.
- Bobbie Jo Baker: Linda Ronstadt.
- Lyle Wheeler: Is she your idol?
- Bobbie Jo Baker: Kinda. Who's yours?
- Lyle Wheeler: Billy the Kid.
- Lyle Wheeler: What do you think you're sittin' on, right now?
- Essie Beaumont: Vinyl!
- Lyle Wheeler: Wrong. That is 100% genuine cowhide. It breathes. It keeps your fanny cool.
- Essie Beaumont: Will you help me find my own truth?
- Indian: Yes, my child. With the help of the spirit, it will happen.
- Lyle Wheeler: Well, what do we got now? A little threesome?
- Bobbie Jo Baker: Come on, Lyle. Lighten it up.
- Essie Beaumont: Wow, man, don't be so up tight, you know. Do whatever comes naturally.
- Lyle Wheeler: Now it's - dust to dust - and ash to ash. It might not be the best deal in the world; but, it's the only one we're ever going to get. So, we might as well learn to live with it.
- Bobbie Jo Baker: He seems nice.
- Pearl Baker: One night he comes walkin' up to me and he says, "Hey, Pussywillow." That's what he calls me, you know. He says, "You wanna know somethin'? You're really too good to be doin' this kinda work."
- Bobbie Jo Baker: I think he's right.
- Pearl Baker: So do I. You know what happened? He got me that night.
- Slick Callahan: Before you jump on me, Pussywillow, you gotta remember one thing. And I don't want you ever to forget it. Ever.
- Pearl Baker: What's that?
- Slick Callahan: A hard man is good to find.
- Slick Callahan: Now, it's ready to fire.
- Pearl Baker: It's ready to fire?
- Slick Callahan: Now, you're gonna find, Pussywillow, that the power of speech of one of these things is amazing. You get people to crawl down on their hands and knees and bark like a dog and crow like a rooster.
- [Pearl laughs]
- Slick Callahan: You'll see what I'm talkin' about.
- Deputy Gance: Buster, I want you to watch that asshole and I want you to watch that asshole. And if either one of them assholes move, right, I want you to shoot them right where their onions grow.
