When I pull a deal off the table, I leave Nagasaki behind.

Don't serve rabbit food to an elephant and ask if he's full.
First I figured out where the sharp action was, where the guys who had a plan were, the guys who grinded. Took the guesswork out of it.
It's time for you folks to sharpen your pencils, and you better come back with one Traci Lords of an idea. And if you need that fucking defined, here it is: a barely legal, market-dominating, brilliant cocksucker of an idea.

You never know which way it's gonna run.
In Depo's I've seen things, you wouldn't believe!
Attack ships on fire.

No replicant, no lawyer is gonna rattle me.

What is it that you do that you're the best in the world at? You offer a service you didn't invent, a formula you didn't invent, a delivery method you didn't invent. Nothing about what you do is patentable or a unique user experience. You haven't identified an isolated market segment, haven't truly branded your concept. You need me to go on? So, why would an investment bank put serious money into it? I all but told you ahead of time, but you wouldn't listen. Now you've heard it, but it's too late. You weren't ready.

You get one life, so do it all.
