Billy the Kid: People are always talking about freedom. Freedom to live a certain way, without being kicked around. Course the more you live a certain way, the less it feel like freedom. Me, uhm, I can change during the course of a day. I wake and I'm one person, when I go to sleep I know for certain I'm somebody else. I don't know who I am most of the time.

Billy the Kid: It's like you got yesterday, today and tomorrow, all in the same room. There's no telling what can happen.

Billy the Kid: It's nice to have you with us Big Casino!

Pat Garrett: Thanks, Little Casino.

Pat Garrett: Well, I'm upwind and I smell it on you.

Billy the Kid: Buffalo?

Pat Garrett: Death.

Billy the Kid: I see what you mean. Can it ever go away? That smell I mean.

Pat Garrett: Sure it can, with time, good company and patience.

Billy the Kid: I made you a promise, Mr. Tunstall. Now I'm making myself a promise. It says in the Bible, "The candle of the wicked shall be put out."

Billy the Kid: Pat, I want you to know I'm sorry. I honestly am. Last night, I was ready to kill you. But in the daylight, I can see things much better.

Billy the Kid: That was pretty smart putting sand in those canteens.

Rio: I had to give you something for your money, didn't I?

Billy the Kid: Oh, I see. So you sent the Sheriff after us for good measure. No wonder he came alone... all he had to do was take his time and wait for the sun to finish us off.

Rio: Then how did you get back?

Billy the Kid: It was pretty tough, but the more I thought about seeing you, *darling*, the easier it got.

Billy the Kid: Well, go ahead.

Pat Garrett: Go ahead what?

Billy the Kid: Aren't you going to say something over Doc?

Pat Garrett: I don't know what to say. I've never said anything over anybody I've killed before.

Billy the Kid: I think we ought to say something over Doc.

Pat Garrett: You better do it.

Billy the Kid: So long, Doc.

Pat Garrett: I thought you might want to keep Doc's guns as a keepsake.

Billy the Kid: Say, I sure would. Thanks, Pat, thanks a lot. I've never had an extra pair. And black holsters, too! They'd go nice with Sunday clothes if I ever get any.

Doc Holliday: Sonny, that head of yours is sure screwed on tight.

Billy the Kid: If it wasn't, somebody would have knocked it off long ago.

Billy the Kid: I think I'll have another drink of water.

Doc Holliday: What are you talking about? You didn't have one in the first place.

Billy the Kid: I know, but I had the same idea about an hour ago.

Doc Holliday: It wouldn't do any good. Take my advice.

Billy the Kid: What?

Doc Holliday: Killing a woman.

Billy the Kid: Why not?

Doc Holliday: Because they're all alike. There isn't anything they wouldn't do for you... or to you.

Billy The Kid: Does that notch...? Does that stand for a man?

Joe Grant: That's what it stands for.

Billy The Kid: You had to put that there so you'd remember?

Joe Grant: That's right.

Billy The Kid: Was he asleep when you shot him?

Billy The Kid: They had me dead! That amnesty - that's for THEM! For Moon and hill and Grant! They walk around! I'm buried! They put dimes on my eyes!

Celsa: Stay here. They'll kill you!

Billy The Kid: They've been killin' me. Now I don't wait. I go first!

Celsa: What are you going to do?

Billy The Kid: I don't run. I don't hide. I go where I want. I DO what I want!

[He puts scarf around her neck and pulls her toward him in a provocative way]

Gil Bonney, aka Gil Cooper: I hate to see you go, Billy.

Mary Barton: Won't you change your mind and stay?

Billy the Kid: No, Fuzzy and I sort of have a hankerin' to travel on.

Mary Barton: You'll let us here from you?

Billy the Kid: Sure! Maybe some day our trails will cross again. Who knows? Goodbye, Mary.

Mary Barton: Goodbye, Billy.
