[edit] James Bond
- I don't think the dead care about vengeance.
[edit] Dominic Greene
- How much do you know about Bond, Camille? Because he's rather a tragic case... His MI6 file says he's difficult to control; a nice way of saying that everything he touches seems to wither and die.
- You should know something about me and the people I work with. We deal with the left or the right, with dictators or liberators. If the current president had been more agreeable, I wouldn't be talking to you. So if you decide not to sign, you will wake up with your balls in your mouth and your willing replacement standing over you. If you doubt that, then shoot me, take that money, and have a good night's sleep.
[edit] M
- When you can't tell your friends from your enemies, it's time to go.
- I could give a shit about the CIA.
[edit] Dialogue
- M: The Americans are going to be none too pleased about this.
- Bond: I promised them Le Chiffre and they got Le Chiffre.
- M: They got his body.
- Bond: If they wanted his soul, they should have made a deal with the priest.
- Greene: You just cost me quite a bit of money, darling.
- Camille: You can't put a price on integrity.
- Greene: I can try. Tell me you didn't drop by tonight just to piss on my parade. Why are you still after this general's head? For your mantel?
- Camille: You lost someone?
- Bond: I did yes
- Camille: Did you catch whoever did it?
- Bond: No... not yet
- Camille: Tell me when you do. I'd like to know how it feels.
- Camille: Friend of yours?
- Bond: I don't have any friends.
- Tanner: He says Slate was a dead end.
- M: Damn! He killed him.
- M: If you could avoid killing every possible lead, it would be deeply appreciated.
- Bond: Yes, ma'am. I'll do my best.
- M: I've heard that before.
- Dominic Greene: You promised that you'd —
- James Bond: Let you go?
- Dominic Greene: I answered your questions. I told you what you wanted to know about Quantum.
- James Bond: Yes you did. And your friends'd know that, so my guess is they're probably looking for you. But the good news is, you're in the middle of a desert. Here. [throws down a can of motor oil] I bet you make it twenty miles before you consider drinking that. Goodbye, Mr. Greene.
- Dominic Greene: Please, my friends call me Dominic.
- James Bond: I'm sure they do.
