• Rosario : Señorita, I cannot understand it. There is an old native proverb, "Beautiful horses always love mules."

• Police Chief Juan Rodriguez : Rosario, you no longer have to worry about eating. We are going to shoot you.

  Rosario 'Rosie' La Mata : Sooner or later everybody dies. It's too bad I am sooner.

• Rosario : It's too bad I am locked up or you could come away with me, huh? I teach you to forget your troubles, and that's not all.

  Lee Donley : What else did you have in mind?

  Rosario : Maybe, perhaps a little love, no?

  Lee Donley : Oh, Rosie, let's don't spoil our beautiful friendship.

• Rosario : Some man has jilted you.

  Lee Donley : Not exactly, Rosie. You can't be jilted when you haven't been given a tumble.

• Rosario : As a lover, I have not had a complaint in all this territory.

  Lee Donley : Well, you just keep pitching and maybe you'll get a tryout in one of the big leagues.

• Rosario : I feel fine. Except one thing. Never in my life do I see so much food, and what happened? No can opener. Two days ago, I have a can opener and what happened? Nothing to open.
