I'll use italics for the Latin they spoke, boldfor the literal translation, and plain text with quotations for the inferred meaning. All other text will be plain, as well.

Doc:

In vino veritas.

In wine is truth.

"When I'm drinking, I speak my mind."

Ringo:

Age quod agis.

Do what you do.

"Do what you do best."

Doc:

Credat Judaeus apella, non ego.

The Jew Apella may believe it, not I.

"I don't believe drinking is what I do best."

Ringo: [pats his gun]

Eventus stultorum magister.

Events are the teachers of fools.

"Fools have to learn by experience."

Doc Holliday: [gives a Cheshire cat smile]

In pace requiescat!

Rest in peace!"

"It's your funeral!"

Marshal White:

Come on boys. We don't want any trouble in here. Not in any language.

Doc:

Evidently Mr. Ringo's an educated man. Now I really hate him.

This is when Ringo pulls his gun and does his tricks before Doc mocks him with his drinking cup.
