Quotes from
Mrs. Worth: Oh, if he's hungry he's going to be alright.
Quirt Evans: Thanks a lot for housing me.
Mrs. Worth: You're welcome. Smoked sausage and eggs?
Quirt Evans: Sounds great.
Mrs. Worth: Two eggs... or would you like three?
Quirt Evans: I'd like six!
Mrs. Worth: [laughs] You shall have them.
Quirt Evans: Funny thing about pancakes: I lose my appetite for 'em after the first couple a dozen.
Mrs. Worth: Aw, they weren't very good this morning... too heavy.
[Dr. Mangrum has been tending to Penny after the accident with the wagon; he takes a bottle from his buggy, drinks, and offers the bottle to Quirt]
Dr. Mangrum: Drink?
[no response from Quirt]
Dr. Mangrum: It's amazing the varied uses to which men put alcohol. To each different individual it's either a stimulant, a depressant or an anodine. Just now I'm using it as an anodine.
Quirt Evans: Get to the point.
Dr. Mangrum: The practice of medicine is one of the most infuriating professions known to man. It takes thirty years of experience to teach you that - in the final analysis - there's nothing to do but stand and watch.
