Unforgiven Quote

English Bob : [ discussing the assassination of President Garfield ] Well there's a dignity royalty. A majesty that precludes the likelihood of assassination. If you were to point a pistol at a king or a queen your hands would shakes as though palsied.
Barber : Oh I wouldn't point no pistol at nobody sir.
English Bob : Well that's a wise policy, as wise policy. But if you did. I can assure you, if you did, that the sight of royalty would cause you to dismiss all thoughts of bloodshed and you would stand... how shall I put it? In awe. Now, a president... well I mean... [ chuckles ]
English Bob : why not shoot a president.
