Little Big Man is the one western I really like.

“It was a great copulation”

“Am I still in this world?”  
“Yes”  
“I was afraid of that.”

From The Magnificent Seven: Calvera explains why not looting the villagers might even be sacrilegious:" If God had not intended for them to be shorn He would not have made them sheep."

From the same film, another Steve McQueen quote: "I remember a man who jumped off the roof of a ten-story building. As he passed each floor people inside could hear him saying, “So far, so good. So far, so good.”

Or words to that effect.
