- Angelo: How come you get into the sheep business, boss?
- Jason Sweet: Well, I'll tell ya, Angelo. You see, it's this way. I just got tired of kicking cows around. You know how dumb they are.
- Angelo: And you think sheep are smarter?
- Jason Sweet: Oh, no, no. They're dumber. Only their easier kicking...and woollier.
- Dell Payton: Was he very bad?
- Jason Sweet: Well, let's just say that he wasn't in any danger of getting a headache from the weight of all the gold stars on his crown.
- Milt Masters: [after he has been run out of town and put in a train box car] How they should do this to one of their own home town boys. I was practically a pioneer in that town. Wasn't three hundred people there when I first came there.
- Angelo: How many now?
- Milt Masters: I don't see what that's got to do with it stranger. Figures don't mean nothing when you're talking about pioneers. It's the spirit that counts.
