Elliott Marston: [O'Flynn and Dobkin prepare Quigley for an old-fashioned duel] I seem to remember you're not too familiar with Colonel Colt's revolver, so this will be your first lesson. Don't worry. Mr Dobkin and Mr. O'Flynn will ensure that it's a fair contest. Elliott Marston: [Marston starts walking backwards] I'll just back up a few paces... And to your left a bit, that's it... Now you're right in front of my old pistol target. Elliott Marston: [Marston slips his coat back to reveal his holster] Some men are born in the wrong century. I think I was born on the wrong continent. Oh, by the way, you're fired Matthew Quigley: This ain't Dodge City. And you ain't Bill Hickok. Matthew Quigley: [Quigley shoots Dobkin, O'Flynn and Marston before they can even aim their guns, then walks up to a dying Marston] I said I never had much use for one. Never said I didn't know how to use it.

Elliott Marston: Ah ha. Legendary Sharps. Matthew Quigley: You know your weapons. It's a lever-action, breech loader. Usual barrel length's thirty inches. This one has an extra four. It's converted to use a special forty-five caliber, hundred and ten grain metal cartridge, with a five-hundred forty grain paper patch bullet. It's fitted with double set triggers, and a Vernier sight. It's marked up to twelve-hundred yards. This one shoots a mite further.

Y'know, I'm new, here, so I'm kinda curious. D'you think the dingos'll get you first, or the ants? Hobb: Done leave me like this. Quigley. Marston's station's two days' ride southwest. Nikitanga's only twenty miles past the billabong... Matthew Quigley: Talk straight, goddammit, or I'll get the ants, myself. Hobb: It's a town. A day's ride past a dry riverbed. That way.
