Why would Doc Holliday say it? Where to Stream: Tombstone. More On: westerns. Pure as the driven snow, I'm sure. Then again, you may be the Antichrist. He can talk himself into anything. You're not wearin' a bustle. How lewd. I abhor ugliness.
Does this mean we're not friends anymore? You know Ed, if I thought you weren't my friend, I just don't think I could bear it. I forgot you were there. You may go now. I have not yet begun to defile myself. Even when absolutely plastered, Doc brings the wit. As Holliday and the Earp brothers stood catching up in the street Doc finally let the cowardly Johnny Tyler off the hook by dismissing him with the above line.
Besides gun fighting and poker, Doc Holliday had another destructive hobby - drinking. As he got older and the effects of tuberculosis began to worsen Holliday relied even more on alcohol to soothe his pain. While playing poker and winning hand after hand against Ike Clanton, Doc began to insult the slow-witted cowboy.
Ike responded with violence before Wyatt Earp intervened and apologized on Holliday's behalf, blaming his actions on being drunk.
But no one knows his own limits like Doc Holliday, who assured everyone with the above quote that he was just getting started. The sadistic cowboy known as Johnny Ringo Michael Biehn had challenged Wyatt Earp to a duel to the death but it was Doc Holliday who showed up instead. As confident as Ringo was it was hard to ignore the fact that Holliday was a well-known killer with legendary speed. Johnny Ringo couldn't help but show his inner fear at the sight of the former dentist and his doubts about his ability to beat him bubbled to the surface.
Holliday had obviously seen that look before in many of his past opponents and the above comment simply pointed out what was clearly written over Ringo's face. After shooting and killing Johnny Ringo in their climactic duel, which was supposed to take place between Ringo and Wyatt Earp before Doc showed up to save Earp as he confirmed to Earp before the duel that Wyatt could not beat Ringo , Earp arrives to find Holliday kneeling over Ringo's body.
Before Earp's arrival, he laments rather sarcastically that Ringo was just too "high-strung" and adds this explanation when Earp walks over. This, like the manner in which Ringo dies, is in reference to the theory that the real Johnny Ringo may have actually committed suicide. Upon meeting Johnny Ringo Doc Holliday immediately insults him. In an attempt to broker peace, Wyatt Earp apologizes on Doc's behalf attributing his behavior to being drunk to which Doc replies in Latin, "In Vino Veritas," or "In wine there is truth.
Doc Holliday is simply pointing out that just because he is drunk does not mean he's not speaking the truth. Ringo too is an educated man and the two gunslingers have a tense conversation completely in Latin.
