- The line about arming himself before decorating the saloon with Munny’s friend is praised.
- I was building a house is a favorite line, paired with the denial that Little Bill deserves death.
- Deserves got nothing to do with it is praised as concise Western dialogue.
- The statement about killing a man taking away all he has and will ever have is favored as the most remembered and probably best line.
- Deserves got nothing to do with it is the competing formal quote choice.
- Munny’s declaration of killing women, children, and other living things before avenging Ned is another favorite.
