Mace Bishop Quotes in Bandolero! (1968)

Mace Bishop: Why do you ride with men like these?

Dee Bishop: Oh, I don't know. I just got used to it, I guess, through the years. You begin one way, you keep going that way, and pretty soon there's no other way.

Dee Bishop: [incredulous] You robbed a bank? You, Mace?

Dee Bishop: [bemused] You just walked into a bank and helped yourself to ten thousand dollars 'cause it seemed like the thing to do?

Mace Bishop: That's about the way it was, yeah, as, as well as I can remember, yeah.

Pop Chaney: You see, there things a man ought never do - spit in church, scratch his self in front of his ma, and pick his nose. Yes that's what my pa learned me and it stood me in good step.

Pop Chaney: Well, I'm talking about mannerly things Mr. Bishop. I ain't talking about making a living.

Dee Bishop: To tell you the truth...

Mace Bishop: Yeah, yeah, liars always start that way.
