Bob Hauk: There was an accident. About an hour ago, a small jet went down inside New York City. The President was on board.
Snake Plissken: The president of what?
Brain: I swear to God, Snake, I thought you were dead.
Snake Plissken: Yeah. You and everybody else.
Girl in "Chock Full O'Nuts": You're a cop.
Snake Plissken: I'm an asshole.
Bob Hauk: I'm not a fool, Plissken.
Snake Plissken: Call me "Snake."
Snake Plissken: What's wrong with Broadway?
Bob Hauk: We'd make one hell of a team, Snake.
Snake Plissken: The name's Plissken.
Bob Hauk: You going to kill me, Snake?
Snake Plissken: I'm too tired. Maybe later.
Bob Hauk: I got another deal for you. I'd like you to think it over while you're resting. I'd like to offer you a job. We'd make one hell of a team, Snake.
Snake Plissken: The name's Plissken.
David Grant: If you don't believe me, what are you doing up here?

Pam: So how exactly does one become a stuntman?
Stuntman Mike: Well, in Hollywood, anyone fool enough to throw themselves down a flight of stairs can usually find someone to pay them for it. But really, I got into the business the way most people get into the stunt business.
Pam: How's that?
Stuntman Mike: My brother got me in it.
Pam: Who's your brother?
Stuntman Mike: Stuntman Bob.
Stuntman Mike: Well Pam, which way you goin' left or right?
Pam: Right.
Stuntman Mike: Aww, that's too bad.
Pam: Why?
Stuntman Mike: Well, because there was a fifty-fifty shot on whether you'd be going left. You see, we're both going left. You could have just as easily been going left too and if that was the case, it would have been awhile before you started getting scared. But since you're going the other way, I'm afraid you're gonna have to start getting scared... immediately.
Stuntman Mike: You know how people say, YOU'RE okay in MY book, or and in MY book THAT'S no good. Well, I actually have... a book. And everybody I ever met goes in this book. And now I've met you, and... YOU'RE going in THE book TOO. Unfortunately, now I'm gonna have to file you under chicken... shit.
Stuntman Mike: The woods are lovely dark and deep, and I have promises to keep and miles to go before I sleep. Did you hear me butterfly? Miles to go before you sleep.
John Ruth: No one said this job was supposed to be easy.
Major Marquis Warren: Nobody said it's supposed to be that hard, either.
John Ruth: One of them fellas'll kill everybody in here.
John Ruth: Music time's over!
