- Bridget Malone: Blarney, blarney. In Ireland, we say the man with golden tongue has the heart of quicksilver.
- Yancy Derringer: There are three knaves from New Haven, the Devon brothers and a man named Travers...
- John Colton: Yes, never mind them. What's this about Duquense Street?
- Yancy Derringer: Well, the three knaves are buying all the property from Royal Street to the levee. Now, I smell smoke, Mr. Administrator, and I want you to tell me about the fire.
- John Colton: This is a state secret.
- Yancy Derringer: Oh, not any more.
- John Colton: Is there anything about New Orleans that you don't know, Mr. Derringer?
- Yancy Derringer: Well, yes. There's a young lady...
- Blair Devon: After all, it is only a pawnshop.
- Yancy Derringer: Only a pawnshop? Mr. Devon, it's the last haven of the poor poker player who believed in two pair. It's an institution. I personally shall miss it.
- Claude de Graaf: I'm not a superstititous man, and yet...
- Yancy Derringer: And yet, what happened to Mr. Arlington and Mr. Spencer?
- Blair Devon: Nothing happened to Mr. Spencer. He just left town, that's all.
- Yancy Derringer: Face down, by way of the Mississippi, short voyage?
- Joshua Devon: Tokens of my solvency. In Connecticut, we say it's money that makes a man.
- Yancy Derringer: We put it a different way in New Orleans - it's not money that gives a man his standing, but his name.
- Yancy Derringer: It's a curious thing about bullets. In poker, you need only two, preferably three, you dream of four - in life, one takes the trick.
