Scott : What they gotcha teachin' here, young sergeant?

Curtis : They sending you in?
Scott : We'll leave that to our betters.
Curtis : Why don't you ask them?
Scott : Why would I want to know? I ain't a planner, I ain't a thinker. I never wanted to be. You got to set your motherfucker to receive. Listen to me. They don't go through the door, we don't ask why. That's not a cost, it's benefit. Because we get to travel light. They tell me where to go. Tell me what to do when I get there.

Scott : You wanted to go through the looking glass. How was it? Was it more fun than miniature golf?

Curtis : I saw the sign.
[draws the Picasso symbol on the hood of a car]
Curtis : Sir.
Scott : You saw the sign? You were up for a week. You coulda seen Jack Ruby. You don't know what you saw your first time out.
Curtis : Sir, I know what I saw.
Scott : You didn't see no sign baby, 'cause she wasn't there. The hardest thing, y'know what it is? It isn't going in the door, it's coming out. You ever come down offa drugs? The most powerful drug in the world is adrenaline. I told you everything I know. Stand down.

Avi : There are some people in this house...
Scott : Avi...
Avi : That if you were go, while you were there, if you said hello to them for me, it would cut your price.

Donny : Take two steps to your left.
Scott : Yes. I have a message for Mrs. Newton.
Donny : I'm sure you do. Spread your arms, please, out to the sides. Open your hands.
Donny : Open the box.
Donny : I'm minutes from the bomb squad. If it's 'Happy Birthday,' let's do it now.
