Lone Watie: [Josie has walked up on Lone and Moonlight having sex] Howdy. Josey Wales: Howdy. Lone Watie: Somethin' wrong? Josey Wales: Uh, no. Lone Watie: I guess you were right. [smiles] Lone Watie: I ain't that old after all.

Lone Watie: Get ready, little lady. Hell is coming to breakfast.
Lone Watie: I didn't surrender, but they took my horse and made him surrender. They have him pulling a wagon up in Kansas I bet.
Fletcher: Damn you, Senator. You promised me those men would be decently treated. Senator Lane: They were decently treated. They were decently fed and then they were decently shot. Those men are common outlaws, nothing more.
Captain Terrill: Not a hard man to track. Leaves dead men wherever he goes.
Lone Watie: How did you know which one was goin' to shoot first? Josie Wales: Well, that one in the center: he had a flap holster and he was in no itchin' hurry. And the one second from the left: he had scared eyes, he wasn't gonna do nothin'. But th...

Jamie: [after Jamie and Josie kill Abe and Lige] I figured you could use some help. Josey Wales: You get those holes a-leakin', I'm gonna whomp you with a knotted plow line.
Josey Wales: [referring to Lone's dog] Chief, I was just wondering: I suppose that mangy red-bone hound's got no place else to go either. [spits tobacco juice on the dog's forehead] Josey Wales: He might as well ride along with us; Hell, everybody el...
Jamie: [Josey and Jamie are waiting for the Redlegs to cross the river] They comin'. [Josie pulls a Sharp's rifle with a early telescopic sight on it from his horse] Carpetbagger: Do you really think you can shoot all those men down before they shoot...
