Quotes 

• Doc Holliday : Dave Rutabaugh is an ignorant scoundrel! I disapprove of his very existence. I considered ending it myself on several occasions but self-control got the better of me.

• Doc Holliday : What do you want to do?

  Wyatt Earp : Kill them all.

• Wyatt Earp : What's wrong with you?

  Doc Holliday : What is wrong with me? What have you got? I am dying of tuberculosis. I sleep with the nastiest whore in Kansas. Everyone who knows me hates me, and every morning I wake up surprised that I have to spend another day in this piss-hole world. (To onlookers) All you can kiss my rebel dick!

  Wyatt Earp : Not everyone who knows you hates you, Doc.

  Doc Holliday : I know it's not always easy being my friend, but I'll be there when you need me.

• Doc Holiday : My mama always told me never put off till tomorrow people you can kill today.

• Doc Holliday : All of you can kiss my rebel dick.

• Frank Mclaury : You're next on my list, Holliday. You better get used to seeing my face, 'cause it's the last thing you're gonna see.

  Doc Holliday : McLaury, seeing your face would be a pleasant change. I understand most of your enemies got it in the back.

• Morgan Earp : I say we just kill 'em all.

  Doc Holiday : You know Morg, Wyatt is my friend, but I believe I'm beginning to love you.

• Frank Mclaury : You're first on my list Holiday. Spend the rest of your time expecting to see me.

  Doc Holiday : Mclaury, seeing you would be a nice change. I understand most of your enemies got it in the back.

• Doc Holliday : Wyatt, you ever wonder why we been a part of so many unfortunate incidents, yet we're still walking around? I have figured it out. It's nothing much, just luck. And you know why it's nothing much Wyatt? Because it doesn't matter much whether we are here today or not. I wake up every morning looking in the face of Death, and you know what? He ain't half bad. I think the secret old Mr. Death is holding is that it's better for some of us over on the other side. I know it can't be any worse for me. Maybe that's the place for your Maddie. For some people, this world ain't ever gonna be right.

  [Wyatt takes his first drink for many years] 

  Wyatt Earp : Is that supposed to let me off the hook?

  Doc Holliday : There is no hook my friend. There's only what we do.

• Wyatt Earp : You been a good friend to me, Doc.

  Doc Holliday : Shut up.

• Virgil Earp : We're gonna disarm them and take 'em in. You understand, Doc?

  Doc Holliday : Oh, I understand Virgil. But

  [taps shotgun] 

  Doc Holliday : do you think they will?

• Warren Earp : Wyatt, you're still a marshal around here, aren't you?

  Doc Holliday : Sure. But now he's going to be a marshal and an outlaw. Best of both worlds, son.

• Doc Holliday : Do you believe in friendship, Wyatt Earp?

  Wyatt Earp : [nods head silently] 

  Doc Holliday : So do I. Do you have many friends?

  Wyatt Earp : [shakes head 'no' silently] 

  Doc Holliday : Neither do I.

  [indicates Shanssey] 

  Doc Holliday : John here has been a good friend to me when many others would not. *Dave Rutabagh* is an ignorant scoundrel! I disapprove of his very existence. I considered ending it myself on several occasions, but... self-control always got the better of me.

  [takes a slug of whiskey] 

  Doc Holliday : Besides, I'm a sporting man. I'm not a killer.

  [goes into a coughing fit]
