Bret Maverick
- Maverick: From the moment I slapped eyes on this hombre, I smelled trouble. And re-fried beans.

Annabelle

Dialogue

- Annabelle: There isn't a Mrs. Maverick is there?
- Maverick: Oh I'm sure I would have remembered.
- Maverick: You tend to breathe hard when you get excited.
- Annabelle: How did you - oh.

- Zane Cooper: Well, Bret, you know what we ended up with? A half a million dollar silk shirt.
- Maverick: Nope, we ended up with a quarter million dollar silk shirt, because my old pappy always used to say "Don't put the chicken in front of"... no, wait "Never cut the cards before"... no, wait, "Don't put all you eggs in one basket".
