The Ride Back (1957)

Sheriff Chris Hamish: I've never been a success at anything I tried to do. Anything I ever tried to do ever, failed. I've been a failure and that's all, a plain old failure. But I'm not going to be this time. I'm going to make this one. I'm going to do this right!

Bob Kallen: You afraid of Indians, Hamish?
Sheriff Chris Hamish: I'm respectful of any man who's got enough liquor to make him kill.
Bob Kallen: Seems to me I've heard something like that about you, Kallen.

Sheriff Chris Hamish: That's the reason you're going back to stand trial, Kallen. Because of me, you understand? Because of me!
Bob Kallen: Hamish, you're better off dead.
