Actually, it wasn't a Western Movie, it was more of a Mexican:  "The Treasure 
of Sierra Madre", by John Ford with Humphrey Bogart,  The line was said by 
Alfonso Bedoya, and it was roughly "Bodges?  We don' need no stinkin' bodges, 
we are the Federales!"  The late Jazzbo Al Collins used it as a mantra on his 
radio shows later.
