Sera: So why are you a drunk?
Ben Sanderson: Why am I a drunk? Is that really what you wanna ask me?
Sera: Yes.
Ben Sanderson: Well, then, this is our first date, or our last. Until now I wasn't sure it was either.
Ben Sanderson: We could get prime rib. They got it on sale for $2.99. I love that dress.
Mr. Simpson: Well... what are you going to do now?
Ben Sanderson: I thought I might move out to Las Vegas.
Sera: Is drinking a way of killing yourself?
Ben Sanderson: Or, is killing myself a way of drinking?
Ben Sanderson: Don't you think you'd get a little bored, living with a drunk?
Sera: Well... that's what I want.
Ben Sanderson: You haven't seen the worst of it. I knock things over... throw up all the time. These past few days I've been very controlled. You're like some sort of antidote that mixes with the liquor and keeps me in balance. But, that won't last forever.
Ben Sanderson: Look at me... I'm a prickly pear.
Sera: Don't you like me, Ben?
Ben Sanderson: Sera... what you don't understand is - no, see, no. You can never, never ask me to stop drinking. Do you understand?
Sera: I do. I really do.
Ben Sanderson: I need my drinky.
Ben Sanderson: I don't know if I started drinking 'cause my wife left me or my wife left me 'cause I started drinking, but fuck it anyway.
Ben Sanderson: I came here to drink myself to death.
Sera: How long will it take you?
Ben Sanderson: I'd say about three to four weeks.
Rayford Steele: I know you all want answers, and believe me, so do I.
Yuri Orlov: I'm a one-man genocide.
Vitaly Orlov: Are you opening a gun shop?
Yuri Orlov: There are already more gun shops in America than McDonalds.
Yuri Orlov: [To the ATF agent who has apprehended him because his brother, who died of "natural causes", has a bullet in his body] I don't suppose this is about alcohol or tobacco.
Yuri Orlov: Out of all the weapons in the vast Soviet arsenal, nothing was more profitable the the Avtomat Kalashnikova model of 1947, more commonly known as the the AK-47, or Kalashnikov. It's the world's most popular assault rifle, a weapon all fighters love. An elegantly simple nine pound amalgamation of forged steel and plywood. It doesn't break, jam or overheat, it will shoot whether it's covered in mud or filled with sand. It's so easy, even a child can use it, and they do. The soviets put the gun on a coin, Mozambique put it on their flag. Since the end of the Cold War, the Kalashnikov has become the Russian peoples' greatest export. After that comes vodka, caviar and suicidal novelists. One thing was for sure: no one was lining up to buy their cars.
Yuri Orlov: I never sold to Osama Bin Laden. Not on any moral grounds, back then he was always bouncing checks.
Yuri Orlov: Selling guns is like selling vacuum cleaners.
Yuri Orlov: I can eat in the restaurant for free and I don't eat there!
