Guy PearceQuotes

Aidan McRory: Where did you learn your English?

Naï-Rea: His Excellency asked the Australian priests to open a school here to teach us languages.

Aidan McRory: Well, I'm very impressed. What else did they teach you?

Naï-Rea: To beware of white men.

Aidan McRory: Forgive me. Forgive me.

Maj. Mark Biggs: Colonel. You realize in light of Colonel Cao's testimony, we'll be pushing for charges on the Ca Lu incident.

Col. Hayes Hodges: That was 30 years ago; you're going to have a hard time finding witnesses.

Maj. Mark Biggs: Well, I thought maybe you'd be willing to testify.

Colonel Hayes Hodges: I'll make you a deal. If you can tell me right now what the life expectancy was for a second lieutenant dropped into a hot LZ in Vietnam in 1968, I'll tell you everything I remember about Ca Lu.

Major Mark Biggs: One week.

Colonel Hayes Hodges: Negative. Sixteen minutes. Sixteen fucking minutes. That's all I remember.

Maj. Mark Biggs: Let me get this straight. You evacuate the Ambassador. You go back to the roof. Two of your Marines are K.I.A. A third, Sergeant Krasevitch, dies. You give your captain an order which he doesn't follow; in fact, he questions. And then you said what?

Col. Terry L. Childers: I don't remember.

Maj. Mark Biggs: You don't remember what you said next?

Col. Terry L. Childers: It was combat, not some training exercise.

Maj. Mark Biggs: A moment later, your men were shooting. What did you say to make that happen?

Col. Terry L. Childers: I don't know.

Maj. Mark Biggs: You must have said something. Captain Lee reversed himself. What did you say?

Col. Terry L. Childers: I don't know the exact words.

Maj. Mark Biggs: Let me help you.

Col. Hayes Hodges: Your Honor.

Maj. Mark Biggs: You said "Waste the motherfuckers," didn't you?

Col. Terry L. Childers: No, no, no...

Maj. Mark Biggs: You didn't say it?

Col. Terry L. Childers: It all happened so fast-

Maj. Mark Biggs: [Childers hesitates and doesn't reply.] You're under oath, Colonel! Let me refresh your memory. This is Exhibit Q, a tape recording made aboard the U.S.S. Wake lsland of all radio communications received that day, including your exact words. Your Honor, with your permission, I would like to play this tape.

Col. Terry L. Childers: If you got it on tape, then that's what I said! They were killing my Marines, so, yeah, I said it! "Waste the motherfuckers!

Maj. Mark Biggs: Are these "the motherfuckers"?

Col. Hayes Hodges: Objection.

Judge: Overruled.

Col. Terry L. Childers: Yes!

Maj. Mark Biggs: These?

Col. Hayes Hodges: Objection!

Col. Terry L. Childers: Yes!

Maj. Mark Biggs: These?

Col. Hayes Hodges: Objection!

Judge: Overruled.

Col. Terry L. Childers: Yes!

Maj. Mark Biggs: Are these "the motherfuckers" that you ordered to be wasted?

Judge: Major.

Col. Terry Childers: YES!

Col. Hayes Hodges: Your Honor...

Major Mark Biggs: The crowd in front of the embassy had no weapons, did they, Colonel?

Col. Hayes Hodges: Objection! We found no snipers weapons, either!

Col. Terry L. Childers: Yes, they had weapons! You think there's a script for fighting a war without pissing somebody off?! Follow the rules and no one gets hurt?! Yes, innocent people probably died. Innocent people always die! But I did not exceed my orders!

Maj. Mark Biggs: There are rules and Marines are sworn to uphold them!

Col. Terry L. Childers: I was NOT going to stand by and see another Marine die just to live by those fucking rules!

Judge: [Bangs his gavel] Colonel!

Andy Warhol: I think I'll quit my painting and just make Edie a big star.

Andy Warhol: [to Edie] You're the boss, applesauce!

Captain Stanley: Now, suppose I told you there was a way to save your little brother Mikey from the noose. Suppose I gave you a horse and a gun. Suppose, Mr. Burns, I was to give both you and your young brother Mikey, here, a pardon. Suppose I said that I could give you the chance to expunge the guilt beneath which you so clearly labor. Suppose I gave you till Christmas. Now, suppose you tell me what it is I want from you.

Charlie Burns: You want me to kill me brother.

Captain Stanley: I want you to kill your brother.

Charlie Burns: I'm going to be with my brother

Charlie Burns: You know, Samuel, the thing I relished the most while I was away? Was not having to see your fucking face all the time.

Charlie Burns: One more crack about the Irish, Mr. Lamb, and I'll shoot you. Am I clear?

Charlie Burns: You touch my brother again, I'll kill you.

Mace: (over the cell) Why do you never answer your phone?

Snow: What the hell is going on?!?

Mace: Listen. You have to get out, okay! It's a double cross. They're coming for you! You have to get out now!

Shaw: (over the ear-pieces to Snow, who comes to a large fan) Here's where it gets a little bit tricky... I need you to get to the other side. Correct?

Snow: Uh, what do you want me to do?! Fly?! Cause I think I left me cape at home!

Emilie: You're the only type of jerk they found for this mission?!?

Snow: The only one stupid enough to say yes.

Snow: You know, I've got this feeling your old man's not going to approve of this. I mean, I can't really see this going anywhere, can you?

Emilie: Depends on how good your are in bed.

Emilie: (as Snow leaves the prison) I know something about you. Amazing what you could find out as First Daughter in old Army documents. Last name Snow. First name... Marion.

Snow: (turning towards her) My old man was John Wayne fan.

Emilie: Must have been tough on the playground.

Snow: That's why I'm so lovable.

Emilie: Looks like you're a free man.

Snow: Thanks to you.

Emilie: (as Snow stabs her with a needle) What is that?

Snow: That's to stop the bleeding and hopefully the talking.

Langral: What happened in that hotel room?

Snow: (sacastically) Oh, it was coupon night and I was trampolining your wife. (is punched in the face)

Langral: You're a real comedian aren't you, Snow?

Snow: Well I guess that's why they call it a punch line. (is punched again)

Snow: (to Emilie) Here'e an apple and a gun. Don't talk to strangers. Shoot them.

Snow: (as he's trying to save Emilie's life while the others remind him of time limit) You know the counting thing, not very relaxing.

Snow: Come on. It'll be fun.

Snow: (after giving Emilie a third shot) That'll freeze the nerves in this spot for 24 hours. You want some in your mouth?

Snow: (about the plan, mildly amused) Don't ge me wrong. It's a dream vacation. I mean I load up. I go into space. I get inside the maximum-security nuthouse, save the President's daughter if she's not dead already. Get past all the psychos who've just woken up.

Boy: You one of the good guys?

Veteran: You'll just have to take a shot.

Bertie: David, I've been trying to see you

King Edward VIII: I've been terribly busy.

Bertie: Doing what?

King Edward VIII: Kinging.

Bertie: Really? Kinging... is a precarious business these days. Where's the Russian Tsar, Where's... cousin Wilhelm?

King Edward VIII: Ugh, you're being dreary.

Bertie: Is Kinging laying off... 80... staff and buying more pearls for Wallis while people are marching across Europe singing The Red Flag?

King Edward VIII: Stop your worrying, Herr Hitler will sort them out.

Bertie: And who will sort out Herr Hitler?

King Edward VIII: Where's the bloody 23?

Bertie: AND YOU PUT THAT WOMAN IN OUR MOTHER'S SUITE!

King Edward VIII: Mama's not still in the bed, is she?

Bertie: That's not funny.

King Edward VIII: Here it is, Wallis likes the very best.

Bertie: I don't care what... woman you carry on with at night as long as you... show up for duty in the morning.

King Edward VIII: Wallis is not just some woman I'm carrying on with, we intend to marry.

Bertie: [pause] Excuse me?

King Edward VIII: She's filing a petition for divorce.

Bertie: Good God... can't you just give her a nice house and a title?

King Edward VIII: I'm not having her as my mistress.

Bertie: The Church doesn't recognize divorce and you are the... head of the Church

King Edward VIII: Haven't I any rights?

Bertie: Many privileges.

King Edward VIII: Not the same thing. Your beloved common man may marry for love, why not me?

Bertie: If you were... a common man on what basis could you... possibly claim to be king?

King Edward VIII: Sounds like you've studied our wretched constitution.

Bertie: Sounds like you haven't.

King Edward VIII: That's what this is about, brushing up. Hence the elocution lessons, that's the scoop around town.

Bertie: I'm trying to...

King Edward VIII: Yearning for a larger audience, are we B-B-B-B-Bertie?

Bertie: [pause] Don't...

King Edward VIII: What's that? I'm sorry, I... younger brother trying to push older brother off the throne, p-p-p-p-positively medieval.

Fernand Mondego: Now I couldn’t live in a world where you have everything and I have nothing.

Fernand Mondego: Take your vengeance. But know that the blood you spill is noble. Blood that will never run through your veins. You are no more a count than I am a commoner!

Alexander Hartdegen: You're forgetting one thing. What if?

Alexander Hartdegen: You were right, Phillby. We did go too far.

Alexander Hartdegen: I could come back a thousand times... and see her die a thousand ways.

Peter Weyland: [last words; [nothing] : There is ].

David: [[good] I know. Have a ] journey, Mr. Weyland.

Peter Weyland: * Recorded hologram for the crew of the Prometheus on reaching their destination.

Maya Hansen: [prepares syringe for Extremis] Let him go! What's going to happen to your men, what's going to happen to you?

Aldrich Killian: [kills Maya; to Stark] Well, the good news is, a high-level position has just been vacated.

Aldrich Killian: No more false faces. You said you wanted the Mandarin, you're looking right at him. It was always me, Tony, right from the start. I AM THE MANDARIN!!!!
