Artistic License – Linguistics: The Quakers all use "thee" when speaking to acquaintances; the use of "you" is reserved for close friends... "and between lovers, of course." Quakers in Real Life originally used "thee" because it was the informal pronoun, to reflect their belief that everyone is equal.

It Works Better with Bullets: Subverted at the first encounter with Laredo Stevens. When told Stevens is on his way, Quirt goes for his gun and is dismayed to find that Thomas Worth emptied it earlier (when he used it as a pacifier to stop Quirt from thrashing about long enough for the doc to treat him). Quirt is still able to use the gun to keep Stevens at bay while they talk, since Stevens doesn't know the gun is empty.

Good Feels Good: This sums up Quirt's Character Development: he begins as a notorious gunslinger, but grows comfortable with the Quakers' God-fearing farming lifestyle (helped along by his romance with Penny) to the point of running out on his old buddies.
