He Zhiwu: They say that love can change a man. I start to find myself looking better and more charming, and suddenly I discover that I'm turning blonde.
He Zhiwu: We rub shoulders with many people everyday. Some may become close friends, or confidants. That's why I'm always optimistic. Sometimes it hurts. Not to worry - I try to stay happy. That night, I saw that woman again. I knew we'd never be friends or confidants. We'd let too many chances pass us by. Nothing happened, there was no chemistry. Maybe it was the weather, but that night I found her very alluring.
He Zhiwu: I love ice cream. When I was little, an ice cream truck would stop by my house every day. I was always happy to see it. Once I asked my dad why he didn't drive an ice cream truck. He didn't answer. I later found out my mother had been run over by an ice cream truck.
He Zhiwu: Most people fall in love for the first time as teenagers. I guess I'm a late bloomer. Maybe I'm too picky. On May 30, 1995, I finally fell in love for the first time. It was raining that night. When I looked at her, I suddenly felt like I was a store. And she was me. Without any warning, she suddenly enters the store. I don't know how long she'll stay. The longer the better, of course.
He Zhiwu: I wish I could tell her some problems can't be solved over the phone. You meet the guy face to face and talk it out, or, if that fails, you punch him in the nose. Too bad I couldn't put it into words. But she seemed to somehow understand anyway.
Charlie: I think you're right. Let's go.
Wong Chi-Ming: The best thing about my profession is that there's no need to make any decision. Who's to die... when... where... it's all been planned by others. I'm a lazy person. I like people to arrange things for me. That's why I need a partner.
The Killer's Agent: There are some people you can never get close to. Get too close, and you'll find him boring.
Wong Chi-Ming: I'm a lazy person. I like people to arrange things for me. It's been a bit different lately. I want to change this habit. I don't know if it's a good decision or not, but at least it's mine.
