"Can you tell me how far we are from Galveston?"

"Galveston? Hell you boys are in Mexico, worse yet, the part you're standing on belongs to Pedro Flores (Paydro Florees in Call's accent), he finds you here he'll hang you sure."

That quote always pops into my head when someone mentions Galveston and I usually recite the line out loud too.

there were lots

"A man that won't cheat for a poke don't want one bad enough."

I'll probably mess this one up a bit:

Gus talking about Deats -

"Call, I don't want to start thinking about all the things we shoulda done for that man."

Woodrow Call: What do you want legs for anyway? You don't like to do nothing but sit on the porch and drink whiskey!

Gus McCrae: I like to kick a pig every once in a while. How would I do that?

Gus McCrae: Only way to get better food around here is by shooting Bolivar. And another thing, Bol, I want you to quit whackin' that dinner bell for supper. You can hit it at noon if you want to, but lay off doin' it in the evenin'. See, a man with any sense at all can tell when it's sundown, without you whackin' that bell.
Bolivar: General Robert E. Lee freed the slaves. I can whack it if I want to.
Gus McCrae: It was Abe Lincoln that freed the slaves, Bol, not General Lee.
Pea Eye Parker: He didn't free Mexicans, anyway, Bol. It was Americans he freed.
Gus McCrae: You're in over your head, Pea. It was a bunch of Africans Abe Lincoln freed. No more American than Call here.
Woodrow Call: I'm American! By God!
Gus McCrae: You was born in Scotland, as I recall. You was still draggin' on the tit when they brought you over here.
Woodrow Call: I reckon I'm as American as anyone from Tennessee

When lorie accuses Gus of cheating to win a poke:

"I won't say I did, I won't say I didn't but I will say this: A man who wouldn't cheat for a poke don't want one bad enough."

Woodrow Call: We come to this place to make money. They wasn't nothin' about fun in the deal.
Gus McCrae: What are you talkin' about? You don't even like money. You like money even less than you like fun, if that's possible.

Well we don't rent pigs and I figure it's better to say it right out front because a man that does like to rent pigs is... he's hard to stop
