La Bamba - A Christmas Dress Dispute Between Brothers

Ritchie Valens: Bob. Where's mom's new dress?

La Bamba - Confrontation Over Unexpected Pregnancy

Bob Morales: Look Rosie, you're not my wife. Quit being such a drag. What the shit's eating you anyway?

Bob Morales: What's there to say? It's not my first. Or my last.

La Bamba - Struggles of Brotherhood and Acceptance

Bob Morales: I've had one sip of beer and I have to admit it taste like piss to me. Want it?
Ritchie Valens: [takes a sip then puts the beer down] Yeah. What's your problem man?
Bob Morales: Old Steve, boy. He always said you'd be somebody and I bought it, too. If that's the way Steve wanted it that's the way it was going to be. Even after he told me he wasn't my dad. Once I knew the full score, I understood why he treated you just a little bit better than me. Okay? I said it, you know. I said, I'll just hang around for the leftovers, like a dog. That's how much I loved him. Like a goddamn dog.
Ritchie Valens: Bob we don't have to talk about this right now.
Bob Morales: No! Shit, no, I want to talk about this right now and you're gonna listen to me!
Ritchie Valens: This is a crock of shit man!
Bob Morales: No, he set you up, man, to conquer the world and didn't leave me shit!
Ritchie Valens: Nobody told you to throw your life away man! I'm only sorry I didn't say something about you being drunk half the time. You did it to yourself!
Bob Morales: Listen to you, coming in here like you own the whole goddamn country. To me you'll always be that little asshole who followed me around in the sticks.
Ritchie Valens: Yeah, I followed you around man. I followed you around cause I thought you were somebody... then!

Bob Morales: Shut your goddamn mouth!
Ritchie Valens: Hey man, don't take it out on Rosie, okay.
Bob Morales: [walking away] Ritchie, you don't understand man. You don't understand a goddamn thing! What do you think, the whole fuckin world revolves around you?

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning - Fate and Determination in Conflict

Gabriel: You're beat, Ethan. If not today, some other place. Some other time. As long as I have this, wherever I go, you will follow. And the Podkova will come to me. That is written.
Ethan: Nothing is written.
Gabriel: I'm not sure Luther would agree. Now, tell me I win.
Ethan: ...You win.
Gabriel: I like the sound of that. Say it again.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning - Control Over the Entity's Source Code

Ethan: You think I'm gonna get the source code and bring it to you?
Gabriel: I don't think, I know. I'm gonna let you go, then you're gonna find the Entity's source code and bring it to me in exchange for Grace. Then I'll take control of the Entity -- the proverbial genie you let out.
Luther: [[Mission: Impossible III|...the Rabbit's Foot.] ]
Benji: The Anti-God?!
Gabriel: It wasn't a biological or a chemical weapon you took from Shanghai. The vial you traded for Julia contained malicious code. The primordial digital ooze from which a weapon evolved. A weapon the East couldn't make work. A weapon the West might never have made on their own.
Benji: You didn't know what you were stealing! None of us did!
Ethan: But I knew why I was stealing it. They kidnapped my wife. Stealing the Rabbit's Foot was the only way I could get her back. I sank that submarine as much as the Entity did.
Gabriel: Without you, Ethan, there'd be no Entity. And if you don't find that sub in the next few days...
Grace: It's the end of the world as we know it.
Gabriel: [to Ethan] And it'll all be his fault. He knows it. Look at me. Tell me I'm wrong.

Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning - The Burden of Responsibility and Repetition

Gabriel: [[Mission: Impossible III|Stealing the Rabbit's Foot; to Ethan] ] was just one event in a lifelong pattern, repeating itself over and over: For every life he's tried to save, he's gambled millions more, doubling down and down again. And now the fate of every living soul on Earth is his responsibility. You must be exhausted.
