Funny / The Sons of Katie Elder

• Bud constantly fighting his brothers attempts to keep him out of trouble.
  John: All we want to do is make you end up rich and respectable. You fight us every step of the way.
  Bud: I don't want to be rich and respectable!
• The brothers want to do something for Katie's sake, so they talk about getting her a fancy headstone. Only they can't decide what kind to get.
  Bud: The Ritters got their mother a marble angel pointing.
  Tom: Pointing? At who?
  Bud: Nobody! Pointing up!
  • When Tom and Matt argue over the idea of a marble angel, Bud notes:
  Bud: Some kid shot her [the marble angel's] finger off, and now it looks like she's just shaking her fist.
  • Tom suggests they get a horse for Katie's grave.
  John and Matt: A horse?
  Tom: She liked horses!
  Matt: Not that much! How'd you like to have a horse standing on top of you for the rest of eternity?
• "Still don't have a newspaper?" "No, but we've a gossip every twenty feet."
