Favorite Deadwood Quote - Series


Recommended Posts

Saloon,

 

 With the Deadwood movie epic release in 2 weeks, it's time to gather our memories from the HBO series, and post your favorite Deadwood quote. Any season's script is fair game. But, here's what not: no curses, body parts, or sexual acts. So F^$K, C&@K sucker, C%$t, etc... are all off limits.

 

You need to add your quote, and the character who said it, and the Season if you know it. Let's have some fun. 

 

I'll start.  "Don't forget to kill Tim" - Al Swearegen, Season 1

You mean they said something else?

Evidently, you missed the good parts.

I watched about half of one episode. It reminded me greatly of Def Comedy Jam. Since I already knew those words, and was way past the age where hearing them was some sort of forbidden thrill, I turned it off and never watched it again.

Wild Bill, after he and Bullock both shoot at the bad guy:

 

”Was that me or you, Montana?”

 

Bullock:

 

”My money would be on you.”

 

Also,

 

Swearingin commenting  how glad he was that he taught English to Wu, after a particularly profane conversation.

Thanks for trying to explain, but I have no clue what Def Comedy Jam is. Missed that comparison entirely.

 

 All I can say is in the Deadwood series, the words between the curses and  description of sexual acts "were" the thrill. It was simply brilliant. That's what this thread is trying to evoke memories of.

[Jack has just been found not-guilty of killing Wild Bill Hickock]

Al Swearengen: What's your name, it's Jack, ain't it? 

Jack McCall: Yes, sir! You buy me a drink, I'll make my mark. 

Al Swearengen: Stick around camp, Jack - I'll make mine for you. 

Jack McCall: What in the H*** is that supposed to mean? 

Al Swearengen: Means there's a horse waiting for you outside you'll want to get on before somebody murders you who gives a * about right and wrong - or I do. 

[Jack stares, dumbfounded]

Al Swearengen: It's the paint, Jack. Right outside my joint. 

[whispering]

Al Swearengen: Run for your * life.

The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man - and give some back. Al Swearengen to A.W. Merrick, after the Deadwood Pioneer paper was ransacked.

C'mon Rye. Most of my favorite quotes have those words too. But, there have got to be a few others you can conjure up , that are lacking those words

I remember when Swearegen ,after learning of Custer's demise, said something like," That pretty much determines the fate of those dirt worshippers from this day forward"

Yep,  I got as much out of it as listening to some of  the gutter rap music.  Language just ruined it for me.  I mean what if stages were patterned using some of the more colorful language!!

No doubt this is my favorite as well.  With your permission, I'll expand on it just a bit:

 

"Pain and damage don't end the world.  Or despair, or *ing beatings.  The world ends when you're dead.  Until then, you've got more punishment in store.  Stand it like a man...and give some back".

 

Sound advice for anyone!
