Couple good ones from the new True Grit
Lawyer: So, you say that when Amos Wharton raised his axe, you backed away from him.
Cogburn: That's right.
Lawyer: In what direction were you going?
Cogburn: I always go backwards when I'm backing up.
Lawyer: Mister Cogburn, in your four years as US Marshal, how many men have you shot?
Cogburn: Shot? Or killed?
Lawyer: Let us restrict it to killed so we may have a manageable figure!
Mattie Ross: If I had killed Chaney, I would not be in this fix; but my gun misfired.
Lucky Ned Pepper: They will do it. It will embarrass you every time. Most girls like to play pretties, but you like guns do you?
Mattie Ross: I do not care a thing about guns, if I did, I would have one that worked.
