Monty Walker Quotes in Guns of the Timberland (1960)

Monty Walker: [the logging crew's train has just arrived in the town of Deep Well, which appears to be deserted] Hey, where's everybody?

Jim Hadley: I don't know.

Jim Hadley: [Jim then notices the old stationmaster] Hey, friend...

Monty Walker: Hello friend. What's going on here?

Bill Burroughs: [Unconcerned] Nothing.

Monty Walker: Well, where is everybody?

Bill Burroughs: What'd you expect, a brass band?

Monty Walker: Sure! Why not?

Bill Burroughs: You know, folks around here don't take to loggers.

Monty Walker: Now, look here, mister. Every place we go people are happy to see us. We spend money like water. Why, we'll put this town on the map.

Bill Burroughs: Or take it off!

[scowls and walks off]

Monty Walker: It's our timber, Jim. We paid for it. We're not leaving yet. Nobody's gonna' take it away. Nobody.
