TV show quotes
Jesus Christ. Why they gotta show that?
Don't be a vag, O'Reily.
Hey, pal, I'm no vag but why they gotta put that stuff on TV?
It's evidence in Coyle's trial.
Evidence, fine. But show it in the Goddamned courtroom and not on the fucking local news. Hey how would you like it if you came home, you put the tube on, there's your grandmother with her guts spilling out for everyone to fucking see?
Congratulations! It's a boy! A bouncing, baby boy. Your son arrived yesterday.
Which unit's he in?
Your favorite: Emerald City.
When life is good, 'tis better not to question why.
Schillinger hates that his kid uses drugs. Andy's only been here a few days and he's already bought a shitload of tits off me. So I'm saying we let Andy suck on that tit 'til he O.D.s.
Or...
You got any tattoos?
Yeah, a couple. (removes his shirt to reveal a few tattoos)
Very nice.
How about you?
I got one.
Yeah? Let me see it.
Someday. We don't know each other that well yet.
You must really love your son, Schillinger, to come in here and ask me for a favor. It must be chewing up your insides to have to stand here in my office begging me for your son's life. 'Cause this is what you're doing, right? Begging?
Yes.
Think of all the times I needed something from you and you just sit here with that stupid-ass grin on your face singing "doodah."
This is my son, goddamn it!
I thought you had two sons.
Yeah, I do.
Maybe you'll be luckier with the second.
I am black, I am a Muslim, and I am a man. And sometimes those three things, they war with each other.
Gentlemen, this room here is the, uh, computer room. Call me crazy, but I think when I see people in this room, they should be using computers. But you three aren't, which leads me to guess, you know, 'cause I'm such a bright fella, that you're here for a different reason. Now forgive me for being distrustful, that probably means you're up to no good. That's right, take a hike. Let's go. You too, Simon.
I am using the computer.
Ah. Well, can I give you one little small suggestion? Turn it on.
You understanding me?
Yes.
Well then fucking blink or something.
(regarding Kosygin) I tried talking to him at dinner, and he just stared at me, frozen like the tundra. He scares the living shit out of me.
My whole life, crammed into my head, how superior we white folks are. I don't see the truth in that. I look around this room, and all I see are white faces, black faces, every color in between, and the only thing I know for sure is that we are all shit. Shit don't come in degrees. White or black, shit is shit. So fuck everything you believe, fuck everything you stand for, and fuck you!
(slaps Andrew) Don't you talk to me like that!
Old man, you hit me way too many times growing up! (attacks Schillinger)
Let me get this straight. You aim for the doctor, but you got the son instead.
No, I aimed for the son.
You took out the kid on purpose?
Yeah. Now that doctor knows how I feel. He killed my baby, I killed his.
What are you gonna say to him when you see him?
Who?
The doctor's son up in Heaven. I already know what I'm gonna say to Dr. Nathan's husband if they let me in.
[to Alvarez, who has blinded him] I hate you, Alvarez you fucking motherfucker. 'Cause of you I gotta carry around all this shit in the dark. If it wasn't for Tina, I would have killed myself already. Sometimes I think I should kill myself for her sake so she could start a new life without me. Some days, Alvarez, I wish you would have killed me instead of doing this. I can't cry anymore. Did you know that? You made it so I can't cry.
Kosygin is no pal of mine. I'm a Jew. He's Cossack. In my community, he's feared for his savagery. You Sicilians think you're so tough. He would cut out your heart, eat it, and not think twice.
Those are not the kind of men you should be hanging out with.
As opposed to who? Those standup individuals that make up your merry little band? I gotta tell you something. My whole life, you crammed into my head how superior we white folks are. I don't see the truth in that. I look around this room and I see white faces and black faces, every color in between and the only thing that I know for sure is that we're all shit. You know, shit don't come in degrees. White or black, shit is shit. So fuck everything you believe in, fuck everything you stand for, and fuck you.
Don't you dare talk to me like that!
Man, you hit me way too many times growing up!
