Christopher Todd:
This stuff you unearthed, Colonel Casey, is dynamite. Very revealing of General Scott's extracurricular love life. Any taste of victory we have in our mouths, Colonel, is due in no small measure to your efforts.
Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: The taste I've got in my mouth, Mr. Secretary, is unmentionable.
Christopher Todd: I can understand that feeling, Colonel. But when you deal with a jackal like your general...
Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: Mr. Todd, this is a full Air Force general. Six times wounded, wearing only half the medals he deserves. Whatever else he is, he's no jackal.
Christopher Todd: My god, the sensitivity of our warriors! Did I step on your old school tie, Colonel?
Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: You're just like a lot of civilians, Mr. Todd. After every armistice, you want to put us away in mothballs, like the fleet. When it comes to a little dying...
Christopher Todd: Hold up, Colonel!
Colonel Martin "Jiggs" Casey: ...you'll be sure to put us in a uniform...
Christopher Todd: That's enough, Colonel!

You look different. Perhaps it's because we met in the dark.

Emperor Maximillian:
[In a shooting contest, he fires his rifle at the torch that his servant is carrying. He misses, shrugs, and says:] Perhaps I'd better stop. We have a servant problem as it is.

Emperor Maximillian:
They're a disreputable-looking band, Henri. Do they know the nature of their mission?
Marquis Henri de Labordere: Only that they will be handsomely rewarded.
Emperor Maximillian: Do you consider death a handsome enough reward for them?

You may present me to the courageous little group.

Emperor Maximillian:
You see, there's the Countess who'll occupy the coach. She's decided that she must see Paris again, and we... indulge her every whim. The Marquis's gravely concerned that she reach the ship in Vera Cruz safely.
Benjamin Trane: She will if the price is right.
Emperor Maximillian: I suppose when one deals with men of action, one just expect action. Does 25,000 in gold sound reasonable?
Benjamin Trane: A pretty figure but only half as pretty as the figure we're escorting to Vera Cruz.
Emperor Maximillian: I gather that double would increase your sense of responsibility.
Benjamin Trane: It would double it.
Emperor Maximillian: 50,000 it is then!
