Elliott Marston Quotes:

  • Elliott Marston: [O'Flynn and Dobkin prepare Quigley for an old-fashioned duel] I seem to remember you're not too familiar with Colonel Colt's revolver, so this will be your first lesson. Don't worry. Mr Dobkin and Mr. O'Flynn will ensure that it's a fair contest.

    Elliott Marston: [Marston starts walking backwards] I'll just back up a few paces... And to your left a bit, that's it... Now you're right in front of my old pistol target.

    Elliott Marston: [Marston slips his coat back to reveal his holster] Some men are born in the wrong century. I think I was born on the wrong continent. Oh, by the way, you're fired

    Matthew Quigley: This ain't Dodge City. And you ain't Bill Hickok.

    Matthew Quigley: [Quigley shoots Dobkin, O'Flynn and Marston before they can even aim their guns, then walks up to a dying Marston] I said I never had much use for one. Never said I didn't know how to use it.

  • Elliott Marston: Ah-ha. The legendary Sharps.

    Matthew Quigley: You know your weapons. It's a lever-action, breach-loader. Usual barrel length's thirty inches. This one has an extra four. It's converted to use a special forty-five caliber, hundred-and-ten-grain metal cartridge, with a five-hundred-forty-grain paper patch bullet. It's fitted with double-set triggers, and a Vernier sight, marked up to twelve-hundred yards. This one shoots a mite further.

    Elliott Marston: An experimental weapon with experimental ammunition.

    Matthew Quigley: You could call it that.

    Elliott Marston: Let's experiment.

  • Elliott Marston: [Marston is knocked out of his house, through a window. His hands come running]

    Elliott Marston: No man knocks me out of my own house!

    [stomps back inside]

    Elliott Marston: [pause]

    [Marston is again knocked out of his house, through a different window]

  • Elliott Marston: Some men are born in the wrong century. I think I was born on the wrong continent.
