Call me family, call me family!!! john wayne is the best
share"Just what put the burr under you saddle about me in the first place?"
Or something very close to that.
it's not "call me family"...
it's "crummy family, drink too muches, yell all da time"
"And I am not intoxicated. Yet!"
shareKate: There are a lot of things we USED to do. Good night, Mr. McLintock!
~You know, James....I was always better.
"Drago, my wife does not understand me."
"Why should you be different from any other man?"
"Divorce...is that when you pay a woman not to live with you?"
"That's about right."
"Some women I've knowed it'd be worth it."
"Don't say it's a fine morning or I'll shoot you!"
Most of the lines in this movie, my favourite would be " I'm NOT intoxicated...YET!"
"If everything isn't black and white, I say why the hell not." ~ John Wayne
Not crummy either, it's "crazy family"
I do not think it means what you think it means.-Inigo Montoya
"crummy family,I lose face"..after the big mudfight.
shareG.W. McLintock has just refused his wife a divorce. He picks up his hat and goes to the door of the room.
Kathryn McLintock: "I hate you. OH, how I hate you!"
G.W. McLintock: "Half the people in the world are women. Why does it have to be YOU that stirs me?" He grabs her and kisses her. She pulls away as far as she can.
Kathryn McLintock: "You ANIMAL!"
PEEE-OPLE, PEEE-OPLE, PEEE-OPLE!!!
shareObviously the quote about him not being intoxicated .. yet ! is the best.
but I als like ... "like father, like son"
...at the interest of adding an unmentioned quote and albeit a bit politically incorrect, I liked the line when GW handed the "spanking shovel" back to his future son-in-law and said "Keep it, you might need it..."

I like
"Don't use that range boss tone of voice with me!"
"Clummy fam'ly! Lousy lelatives!"
"I have tried being surreal, but my frogs hop right back into their realistic ponds."
"Let's get to the rat killing... let us open the discussion!"
shareI like the quote by Dev Warren. "I said what I said and I'll stand by it to the death." and the quote by Drego "Pee-ple, peeple, peeeple."
and prolly a bunch of others! I love the whole movie lol
Yeah, Dev's quote was one of my faves too... I have seen this movie so many times- it is just as hilarious as the first time I saw it. I was quite taken with Patrick after I saw him in this movie. John Wayne rules! :)
share"Now for this young whipper-snapper..."
"Now no harm has been done, and young Ben here is one of the nicest boys in the territory so just put down that shotgun and let's forget-"
"I'll teach him to fool with my-"
*McClintock knocks the Pa down and takes his shotgun. My favorite part*
"Now, we'll all calm down!"
"Boss he's just a little excited."
"I know, I know, I'm gonna use good judgment I haven't lost my temper in 40 years but pilgrim you caused a lot of trouble this morning, mighta got somebody killed and somebody oughta belt you in the mouth! But I won't. I won't. The hell I won't!"
*McClintock belts the Pa in the mouth*
'half the people in the world are women why does it heave to be you who stirs me?'
'there is a lot of things we USED to do,good night mr.mclintock'
i love them as a couple!!!
"You can't walk on one leg! I beg you're pardon: you can't walk on one LIMB! That's silly: only a bird can walk on a limb!"
shareGW: "You know, if we had any moral character, we wouldn't be standing here covered with mud drinkin', when we should be washing."
as much as I love the comic elements--most of the film--I have to go with Wayne's speech to Powers, where he tells her he's only going to leave her a small ranch, and the rest of his land for a public park, and that some people are gonna say it's because he was disapointed in her, or because he wanted to sit up in the hereafter and be admired. But he tells her its because he wants her to build it up with her husband--whoever it may be--'because nothin' can beat what comes between a man and a woman, with all that...growin' together' (quote not exact, but sentiments are).
That's a standard of marriage I saw in my mom and dad, and few others. I hope to come near to it myself...
vaya con dios
'We all dream of being a child again - even the worst of us. Perhaps the worst most of all...'
Drago: Jake, you better add twelve cases of whiskey to that order. Stuff sure does get used up fast around our place.
McLintock: That reminds me; you better start tapering off.
"SHOOT HIM, DADDY!"

Surprised this one isn't listed...
After delivering Catherine and her bags to the house (and being told off after commenting on how one woman could have so many clothes!)...Clem asks Mr. Mc, what does unprepossessing mean?
JW: Clem, someone called me that once, looked it up. It's best you don't know.
Clem: Ok, Mr. Mc, g'night, git up!
Bunny:"I hope ya'll get measles." Referring to the kids with firecrackers.
shareMy favorite is Katherine "nicely" explaining the situation to Mrs. Warren,
"It has been a bachelor's household for QUITE SOME TIME. And it will be again just as soon as I can make arrangements to take my daughter back east with me. You see, she's coming home in a few days, and then we'll be "off together" and you can return to conducting yourself as you see PROPER in this household"
"Katie!"
"Shut up. Until then, I'm mistress in this house. (she looks at GW) and I will give the orders."
three pages of quotes and my favorite is still missing. I have loved this one since the first time I watched this movie in the theatre.
"What are you gonna believe, what you see or what I tell you."
- Wayne says it to his wife when she finds him at the bottom of the stairs, on top of the maid. he-hee.
