Quotes from

Levi Walking Bear: Dumb Indians!
Taw Jackson: Looks like they're getting ready to move out.
Levi Walking Bear: They are. Squaws, old men, children - Pierce has starved them out. He'll have all the land now.
Taw Jackson: What about Wild Horse?
Levi Walking Bear: He and the warriors are stayin', but Pierce will hunt them down, too. Dumb Indians.
Taw Jackson: And you're smart?
Levi Walking Bear: Sure! Because I've learned to live in the white man's world and do what they do. Grab all you can, anytime you can.


Taw Jackson: Did you know why Pierce wanted you to kill me?
Lomax: Sure, so he could legally steal your land once he found there was gold on it. You were a hard-working rancher defending your property, yet it's you who gets shot, framed and sent to jail. I always thought that was kind of amusing.
Taw Jackson: Well, it's nice to find a fellow with a keen sense of humor.


Lomax: [Jackson and Lomax see a man getting shot at by a gang] Let me guess which one's your friend.

Facts about

According to John Wayne, the fight in the saloon was his 500th on-screen fight.
Kirk Douglas was one of the few people in Hollywood who did not refer to John Wayne as "Duke" citing his dislike of nicknames. Curiously, Yakima Canutt, an expert stuntman and second unit director, and one of Wayne's oldest friends in the business, also called him "John" in most print interviews.
During the production, Kirk Douglas was late to the set because he was shooting a commercial endorsement for the Democratic Governor of California, Edmund G. Brown. John Wayne was furious, and was late to work the next day because he was shooting a commercial for the Republican candidate Ronald Reagan.
