A Walk Among the Tombstones - Confrontation of Fear and Indifference
Ray:
What the fuck is the matter with you, man? Why aren't you afraid?
Matthew Scudder:
I don't know. Maybe I don't care if you shoot me or not. Or maybe there's a high-powered rifle pointed at your head.
Ray:
I could still kill you.
Matthew Scudder:
I'm right here. In some ways you'd be doing me a big favor.
Ray:
Nah... I think I'll just fade into the shadows.

A Walk Among the Tombstones - Judgment and Recognition in Confrontation
Matthew Scudder:
I already know what you look like, Ray.
Ray: [beat]
What do you know?
Matthew Scudder:
I know you're a genetic fuck-up, who, if I'd met on the street 10 years ago, I'd have thrown you out of a fucking window.

A Walk Among the Tombstones - The Courage to Speak the Truth
Ray:
The dog's name is Watson.
Matthew Scudder:
Watson. And the other dog? The one before?
Ray: [beat]
She couldn't tell me what breed the other dog was. She was young when it died. They had it put to sleep, she said. It's a silly term for it, don't you think? I mean, you're gonna kill something you ought to have the courage to say that that's what you're doing. You're not talking, you still there?
Matthew Scudder:
I'm here.
Ray:
I gather it was a mongrel. So many of us are.

Black Widow - Loss of Reproductive Rights in the Red Room
Alexei Shostakov:
Why the aggression, huh? Is it your time of the month?
Yelena Belova:
I don't get my period, dipshit. I don't have a uterus.
Natasha Romanoff:
Or ovaries.
Yelena:
That's what happens when the Red Room gives you an involuntary hysterectomy. They kinda just go in and rip out all your reproductive organs. They just get right in there and chop them all away. So you can't have babies.
Alexei: [overlap at 'chop them all away', disgusted at the detail; sits]
OK, OK, you don't have to get so clinical and nasty!
Yelena:
Oh I was just going to talk about Fallopian tubes. OK!
