Val Avery Quotes:

Chamlee: I'm sorry, friend, but there'll be no funeral.
Henry: What?
Chamlee: Oh, the grave is dug and the defunct there is as ready as the embalmers ought to make him. But there'll be no funeral.
Henry: What's the matter? Didn't I pay enough?
Chamlee: It's not a question of money. For twenty dollars, I'd plant anybody with a hoop and a holler. But the funeral is off.
Henry: Now how do you like that. I want him buried, you want him buried and if he could sit up and talk, he'd second the motion. Now that's as unanimous as you can get.


Buck Mason: [watching Smith down a whiskey] Hell of a way to begin a day, ain't it?
Nevada Smith: Well, I ain't cryin' about it; why should you?
Buck Mason: If ever you could, it'd add 20 years to your life. Yeah, maybe somebody else's.


Henry: This man needs to be buried. And soon. He's not turning into any nosegay.
