Barry quotes

Fuches

When you meet Goran, don't be afraid to sell yourself. Remember that liquor distributor in Canton, you stabbed in the nut? I think Goran's the kind of man, who would find something like that intriguing. So work it into the conversation, to make him aware that, you know, you'll go there.

Fuches

You want a hobby or something? You could take up painting! Yeah, Hitler painted! John Wayne Gacy painted, it's a good, solid hobby!

Barry

You wanna know what I'm good at? I'm good at killing people. You know, when I got back from Afghanistan I, ah, was really depressed. You know, like I didn't leave my house for months, and, ah, this friend of my dad's, he's, uh he's like an uncle to me. He, uh, he helped me out and he gave me a purpose. He told me that, that what I was good at over there could be useful here and, uh, it's a job, you know? Alright, the money's good, and, uh, these people I take out, like they're they're bad people, you know, like they're pieces of shit. Um... But lately, you know, I've like, I'm not sleeping and, ah, that depressed feeling's back, you know. Like, like I know there's more to me than that. Maybe, I don't know, maybe there's not. Maybe this is all I'm good at.

Cousineau

Now, I wish I could say that this was the first time that one of my students was gunned down in the street, but it's not. And as much as it pains me to say it... It is most likely not the last.

Cousineau

If I want pure sorrow, I call up Princess Diana's death. Or the day that my dad fell off the roof as a kid... Kerplunk. Or the next day, when he went right back up on that roof. [He looks to the sky.] Hi, Dad!

Barry

Siri, what is "off book"?

Freeze, cowboy.

Showing two results for "off book freeze cowboy".

Fuches

First time in LA? Yeah, I picked up on that, what you and the big guy were talking about there. When my partner gets back, you're gonna kill us, yeah? [He mimes a gun.] Pop! You know, there's a version of this where... you don't do that!

My whole life, ever since a boy... is death.

Fuches

Well, you're a regular Family Circus cartoon.

Cousineau

Alright, we're in a grocery store!

Barry

Gum.

Cousineau

Gum is at the register, Barry.

Cousineau

Now, take a look around, what do you see?

Barry

Soup.

Cousineau

We see soup! What kinda soup?

Barry

Um...

Cousineau

Chicken noodle? Consommé?

Barry

I don't know.

Cousineau

What do you mean, you don't know?

Barry

I don't know.

Cousineau

Just look at the shelf.

Barry

I can't.

Cousineau

Why?

Barry

Someone bought it.

Cousineau

No one bought it, that's a lie!

Cousineau

Just... surrender. Surrender to the soup, Barry!

Fuches

Stovka, let me tell you something. You get on the 10 Freeway, it's the Christopher Columbus Transcontinental Highway, you can just drive and become whoever you wanna be! This is the country that invented Superman! And the women, oh my God, the women here! Stovka, they would love that accent of yours! If-- I know! I-- I know a couple of gals in Cleveland who would love-- How old a guy are you, Stovka?

Forty-five.

Fuches

[chuckles] Jesus Christ. O-- Okay, uh, I know one gal--

There's nothing for me. I had a wife. A child. But they leave me. She say I'm broken. You talk of freedom? As long as I work for them, I never free. It will always be the same. My whole life, ever since a child, is death. There is only one true way out.

Fuches

Yeah, I caught about half of that Stov, if you could take my cell phone outta my-- my pocket here, I can show you one gal. She's Cherokee! She's really wild!

Barry, I gave you this monologue for a reason. To see if you were capable of playing a character with the mildest set of balls. You know, I'm starting to see a trend in your work, and it's disturbing, and it's this: You are deferential to every character in a scene except for yours! It's the way you read every scene. And if you're gonna be an actor, it's a big problem.

Barry

Okay, listen. I guess what I just thought is that my guy was trying to help these other dudes achieve a goal, right? And if it was me, I would want them-

You know what? That is so lovely. If it was you. Is that the way you see your life? As a human doormat?

Barry

No.

"No"? 'Cause that's all we've ever seen in here. And I'll bet you tits to donuts it's no different out there in the real world. You were in the service, right? Right? [Barry nods] Yeah, well, that makes sense, doesn't it? "Stand like this. Clean your gun. Swab the deck. Peel a potato." Barry, do you ever ask for what you need? Or do you just quietly feel shame at your own desires while sadly doing the bidding of others? "Dear Diary, today, I did what everybody else wanted me to do. Is that alright with you, Diary? Love, Barry." Is that the life you wanna lead? Look at me. Answer me.

Barry

No.

"No". You're just saying that because I told you to say it!

Barry

Well, I don't know what you want me to say.

I want you to fight for yourself, Barry. I want you to say it out loud. I want you to say out loud, "Hey, I want this!" Can you tell me one thing?

Barry

All I want is to take this class.

Well, you have ten seconds to make me believe that, fucko, or you're never gonna see the inside of this class again! And... Action!

Barry

Fuches! I'm not doing it! Any of it, okay? I know it's what you want, but fuck you! Okay? There's a lot of things I wanna do, but you don't care about any of that! Take out a stash house all by myself? "Oh yeah, let's have Barry do it. He's fucking Jason Bourne!" Yeah! No! Fuck it! I'm out! So you're going back to Ohio, and I'm staying here, and that's it! Fuck you! Ow!

I'm really proud of you.

Barry

Thanks.

Can I take a shit in your house?

Barry

We have five guest rooms, take your pick.

Look at your little hands. You are so little. I could rock you like a baby.

I would like you to rock me like a baby.

I could drop kick you in the middle of the restaurant, everybody would applaud and then I'd beat the fuck out of you.

And I would let you do it.
