Cowboy dresses from the top down.
First thing on is his hat.

1:39:08
And he undresses from his boots up.
Last thing off, hat.

1:39:16
Another thing. To be a cowpuncher.
1:39:19
That don't mean
you got to go around punching them.

1:39:22
Yes, ma'am.
1:39:27
Laudanum.
1:39:32
Supposed to make you sexy-sleepy.
1:39:36
Well, I've got no such problems.
1:39:39
I got to get me some sleep. I can't sleep.
1:39:43
Guilty conscience.
1:39:47
Why? 'Cause I won't throw the race?
1:39:49
Nothing so hard on a man as virtue.
1:39:54
How could you know?
1:39:57
According to
the Gospel of Old Luke Matthews.

1:40:01
"Virtue is its own punishment."
1:40:12
You might say this is our Last Supper.
1:40:14
Beyond that next mountain,
it's all downhill to the finish line.

1:40:18
And you, Mr. Norfolk.
Will you be with us at the finish?

1:40:22
I wouldn't miss it.
1:40:24
To the West!
1:40:25
Awesome, but inspiring.
1:40:28
What the hell's inspiring
about a flash flood or a blizzard?

1:40:33
Or a landslide or sandstorm or dust storm?
1:40:37
Any sudden disaster, personal or financial?
1:40:40
Today, the desert broiled you raw.
Tomorrow, the mountain'll freeze you stiff.

1:40:44
That's your West. Violent, treacherous.
1:40:48
Where every prairie dog hole is a goldmine.
1:40:51
Every molehill is a mountain. Every creek
is a river, and everybody you meet is a liar.

1:40:56
"When you call me that, smile, stranger."
1:40:58
The Virginian, Owen Wister. Another liar.
