Donald MacDonald: Clay Gipson

Quotes 

• [first lines] 

  Clay Gipson : How's that, Wade? Hit him every time!

  Sheriff Wade Addams : Well, your marksmanship: not bad; but your speed, not so good. That's because you're wastin' a lot of time slappin' leather. You're wearin' your gunbelt a little too high. That's it, lower it a little. You gotta have your wrist just so it's about touchin' your gun handle. That's about right. Now watch... you watch his eyes, never his hands.

  [Addams puts a hole right between the eyes of Tris Hatten's wanted poster] 

• Clay Gipson : Do you really think Tris Hatten's dead?

  Sheriff Wade Addams : He's supposed to be, according to the legend. Of course, that legend's as phony as a brass good piece. It's the worst kind of killer that would shoot a man in the back just as soon as look at him. I kinda hope he's dead.

• [last lines] 

  Clay Gipson : Wade, you got him!

  Sheriff Wade Addams : We'll talk about that later.

  [Clay's pony whinnies] 

  Sheriff Wade Addams : You'll be riding him again soon.
