Doc: It's my fault she got took. I never should have taken her to that town.
Meacham: No, no, no. Not your fault. You'll get her back. You're setting things right. Just got to have faith. That's all.
Doc: Faith. Yeah. God's been real swell to me. I don't mean no disrespect, preacher, but either he ain't up there or he don't like me

Woodrow Dolarhyde: What are you all choked up about?
Emmett Taggart: I'm worried about my grandpa.
Woodrow Dolarhyde: Look. When I was just a little bit older than you are now, all this was Mexico. Word came that the Apaches was riding towards a settlement called Arivaca. My father wanted me to be a man, so made me ride out with the

garrison, banging on a drum. Boy, was I scared. Well, we got there, it was too late. They were all dead and the whole place was burnt down. This settler fella came crawling out of a burning cabin. He was bad. He knew he was gonna die. Burnt bad. He rolled over, looked up into my eyes, and he said "Kill me."
Emmett Taggart: What did you do?
