Seth Gecko: Everybody be cool...you...be cool.
[Seth rings the bell on the counter at the motel and old man comes out of the back.]
Old man: What the hell do you want?
Seth Gecko: What do you think I want, you mean old bastard? I want a fucking room.
Santanico Pandemonium: Welcome to slavery.
Seth Gecko: No thanks. I already had a wife.
Seth Gecko: Now, this is my kind of place!
Seth Gecko: Don't you ever try and fucking run on us, because I've got six little friends, and they can all run faster than you can.
Matt Kowalski: Half of North America just lost their Facebook.
Matt Kowalski: You have to learn to let go.
Matt Kowalski: Houston, I have a bad feeling about this mission.
Mission Control: Please elaborate.
Matt Kowalski: Well, it reminds of a story.
Matt Kowalski: I know I'm devastatingly good looking but you gotta stop staring at me.
Ryan Stone: Fuck!
Matt Kowalski: Copy that.
Baird Whitlock: Hey, Obie. You're a Communist, too?
Rex: My wife has me between a rock and a hard place.
Miles Massey: That's her job. You should respect that.
Miles Massey: So you propose that in spite of demonstrable infidelity on your part, your unoffending wife should be tossed out on her ear.
Rex: Is it possible?
Miles Massey: It's a challenge.
Miles Massey: You fascinate me.
Miles Massey: Your husband had told me you were the most beautiful woman he'd ever met. I didn't expect the most beautiful woman I'd ever met.
Miles Massey: All right, so much for the ice-breakers. What are you after, Freddy?
Freddy Bender: My client is prepared to settle for 50 percent of the marital assets.
Miles Massey: Why only 50, Freddy? Why not a hundred? While we're dreaming, why not 150? Are you familiar with "Kershner"?
Freddy Bender: "Kershner" does not apply.
Miles Massey: Bring this to trial, we'll see if "Kershner" applies.
Rex: What's "Kershner"?
Miles Massey: Please, let me handle this.
Freddy Bender: "Kershner" was in Kentucky.
Miles Massey: "Kershner" was in Kentucky?
Freddy Bender: "Kershner" was in Kentucky.
Miles Massey: All right, Freddy, forget "Kershner." What's your bottom line?
Freddy Bender: Primary residence,30 percent of remaining assets.
Miles Massey: What, are you nuts? Have you forgotten "Kershner"?
Miles Massey: I guess something inside of me died, when I realised that you'd hired a goon to kill me.
Marylin Rexroth: Wait a minute. You hired him to kill me.
Freddy Bender: No. Both of you wait a minute. Nobody hired anyone to kill anyone.
Wrigley: Hear, hear.
Freddy Bender: Apparently, from what I can gather, a burglar broke into your house.
Wrigley: Miles's house.
Freddy Bender: Whatever. A burglar broke in intending to loot the place, uh, repented, became despondent over his lifestyle and shot himself.
Marty Bach: We've got 600 attorneys here. We've got to find out who's an expert on psychiatric commitment statutes.
Michael Clayton: I can tell you who that is: Arthur.
Arthur Edens: I just need to make my thoughts a little bit more precise. That's, that's my goal.
Michael Clayton: As good as this feels, you know where it goes.
Arthur Edens: No. No, no, you're wrong. What makes this feel good is that I don't know where it goes.
Michael Clayton: I'm not the guy you kill. I'm the guy you buy! Are you so fucking blind that you don't even see what I am? I sold out Arthur for 80 grand. I'm your easiest problem and you're gonna kill me?
