Old Bill: [to Shane] If I'm going to be your superior, there's nothing that you can't share with me.

Shane Cooper: We lost... we lost our last pregnancy at six months. The doctor said we should move somewhere quiet, away from the city. Try and keep her blood pressure down.

Old Bill: What, you shot yourself?
Shane Cooper: No, sir.
Old Bill: Well, who did?
Shane Cooper: A kid. He was strung out. He pulled a concealed weapon, I pulled mine and...
Old Bill: You couldn't pull the trigger.
Shane Cooper: He was just a kid.
Old Bill: It was a kid with a gun.
Shane Cooper: That's one way of looking at it.
Old Bill: What's the other way, Constable?
Shane Cooper: Maybe he needed help, not a bullet.
[Old Bill scoffs]
Shane Cooper: What, you disagree, Inspector?
Old Bill: We'd be having a different conversation if you were dead.

Old Bill: What's funny?
Ken: Bit of overkill, Old Billy.
Old Bill: Jimmy Conway was the best brumby tracker this town ever had. You'll hold your position and you'll be armed at all times, you understand?

Old Bill: We all know what we're dealing with here. Jimmy Conway rides into this town, he'll be bringing hell with him. Shoot to kill.

Shane Cooper: I don't wanna cause any unnecessary stress, but I just came from Gleason's property and he seems to think there's a panther roaming the area.
Old Bill: Jesus, Cooper. This is Australia, mate, not fucking Africa.
-
Shane Cooper: We got a convicted murderer out there killing every man in this town and you're suggesting we don't call it in?

Old Bill: [to Shane] That's a mighty fast draw for someone who's never shot a bullet.
-
Alice Cooper: [to Shane] Be careful, cowboy.

Old Bill: [on Jimmy] *He* Wanted To Be A Hero... And For *What*? Bones In The Fucking *Dirt*!
[goading Jimmy]
Old Bill: Come On... COME *ON*!
-
Old Bill: You are not suggesting we host a food and wine festival, are you? Our forefathers did not sacrifice their blood, sweat and tears so that a bunch of wankers could come here and sip fucking pinot! For those who want to destroy this town, they better deal with me first cause I am not going down without a fight!
