  • You know, it's not enough just to be a beauty Morales, you have to be able to appreciate beauty too.
  • To answer your question, no, I don't get women like that. I haven't actually had a girlfriend since... well let's just say that women stopped beating down my door the same time that the bangs stopped covering the receding hairline.

Anna Foster

  • You didn't want me to get hurt, and you were right. I needed protection because people can't be trusted. I learned my lesson.

Ben Calder

  • Romance is simply not a feasible option for me right now.
  • [to Anna] Can you please stop taking your clothes off around me?

McGruff

  • We connected, which is next to impossible in this world. You know that! You can't let a feeling like that pass you by!

Dialogue

[edit]
President James Foster: Oh, good. Gabrielle found another trashy friend to hang out with.
Michelle Foster: Yeah, your daughter.
Anna Foster: I'm on fire! I'm untouchable! I'm Anna! Who are you?
Ben Calder: Ben Calder, freelance getaway man. Yeah, need the hand, need the hand.
Anna Foster: Dad! Way to go. I can't believe you had that restaurant swarming with all of your secret servants. You ruined my date! And now, I'm going to die before I ever get to third base... I mean second base.
[Anna turns to see others in room]
President James Foster: Anna?
Anna Foster: I'll talk to you about this later.
President James Foster: No, no. Stay. Pull up a chair. We were just discussing the G8 Summit in Prague, how to best persuade the EU leaders to adopt our plan for distributing humanitarian aid and medical technology to developing nations, but you had a bad date, so we should probably focus on that.
Anna Foster: No, no, no, I'm so sorry to have interrupted. Excuse me.
[Anna leaves]
President James Foster: So third base is what again?
[indistinct mumbling]
President James Foster: Glad I asked.
Anna Foster: As soon as this train stops, we're going to go our separate directions.
McGruff: Hey, chilly-willy, Squabblers, take a few of these on your solo travels then.
Ben Calder: What are these? Six-Million-Dollar Man stickers?
McGruff: These stickers are my contribution to the global community. Everyone I meet gets a handful. Your job: post them up! Pound one on a door, slap one on a kiosk, place one on a postbox, wherever your life may lead you.
Anna Foster: And then what?
McGruff: Then, nothing. You forget about the sticker, you move on. One day, maybe you're a little down in the dregs, and all of a sudden, there it is! The corner of a window, the door of a subway, the side of a telephone booth, one of the stickers. And it puts a smile of your face because you know you are not alone in the world; we're all connected.
Ben Calder: Wanker.
Anna Foster: You have a little thing for me, huh?
Ben Calder: I'll stop you there. I do not have a thing for you, okay, little or otherwise.
Anna Foster: Why did you get on the train with me to Berlin, then? [pause] Mm-hmm.
Ben Calder: Okay, you know what, you're right. I'm strangely attracted to exhibitionist runaways. It's an addiction, really. I was in a program for a while where we had to spend time with fully-clothed home-bodies, but I've relapsed, again.
Anna Foster: Ben. Can you ever just say what you really feel?
Ben Calder: Okay, all right! Because I'm jealous as hell. Because I'd hate to see you with Gus Gus. I'd hate to see you with any other man. Because not only did I adore kissing you in Venice, but also because I'm so un-bloody-hinged just being near you.
Ben Calder: So if you're scared, why do it?
Anna Foster: Because the things you're scared of are usually the most worthwhile.
Ben Calder: So, you got a little thing for me, huh?
Anna Foster: No. Big thing.
Ben Calder: If I kiss you, do you think they'll shoot me?
Anna Foster: No, but I will if you don't.
Michelle Foster: Never ask a President to promise, Honey.
Anna Foster: I'm not. I'm asking my dad.
Cynthia Morales: No, no, no, let me ask you something, Weiss. Do you actually get women like this? I was really curious if there were actually women out there in the world who walk by the construction lunch break which is your very personality and say: "Oh, yeah, please. Baby, give it to me. Give me some of that hard hat, right here, right now." There are actually women like that?
Alan Weiss: A couple.
Cynthia Morales: Well maybe you should stop overcompensating, you're a good looking... I mean you look fine some women like a bald head.
Alan Weiss: I am not bald yet.
Cynthia Morales: I'm just saying maybe you should embrace it. You could cut it real short... some women like that they find it sexy.
