Broken Flowers - Discussion on Smoking and Cannabis Sativa

Rita: Daddy, you're not supposed to be smoking.
Winston: Oh, no, no. This is just some assorted herbs, some cheeba.
Don Johnston: Let me see that
Don Johnston: Yep, it's just cannabis sativa.

Broken Flowers - The Identity of Don Juan

Winston: You are the Don Juan.

W. - Debate on Iraq's Future and American Power

Colin Powell: So what is our real exit strategy on Iraq, Dick?
Dick Cheney: There is no exit. We stay. Empire. Real empire. Nobody will fuck with us again.
Colin Powell: Spoken like a true oilman.

Quantum of Solace - Reflections on South America’s Political Landscape

James Bond: You know, I was just wondering what South America would look like if nobody gave a damn about coke or communism. It always impressed me the way you boys carved this place up.
Felix Leiter: I'll take that as a compliment coming from a Brit.
James Bond: Are you sure you're playing with the right side?
Felix Leiter: Regimes change once a week around here. Medrano will be no dirtier than the next guy.
James Bond: See, that's what I like about US intelligence. You'll lie down with anybody.
Felix Leiter: Including you, brother. Including you.
James Bond: Do you know you're being played? Dominic Greene is going to suck this place dry, and then he's going to move on. You're going to be left picking up the broken crockery.
Felix Leiter: What can I tell you? There's no such thing as a free lunch.
James Bond: You see, Felix, I don't think you're half as cynical as you make out to be.
Felix Leiter: You don't know me.
James Bond: [glances around] Why? Because you didn't come alone?
James Bond: How long have I got?
Felix Leiter: Thirty seconds.
James Bond: Well, that doesn't give us a lot of time, does it?
Felix Leiter: Medrano can't move until he pays off the army and the police chief. Greene's bringing him his money now. A hotel called the Perla de las Dunas. In the desert.
James Bond: Thank you, Felix.
Felix Leiter: James... move your ass.

Quantum of Solace - Team Loyalty and Moral Dilemmas

Felix Leiter: You know who Greene is, and you want to put us in bed with him. You're kidding, right?
Gregg Beam: [pause] Yeah, you're right - we should only deal with nice people. I need to know you’re on the team, Felix. I need to know that you value your career.

Casino Royale - A Brief Exchange of Trust and Doubt

Felix Leiter: [''Sees the knife in James' hand''] I should have introduced myself, seeing as we're related. Felix Leiter, a brother from Langley. You should have faith. As long as you keep your head about you, I think you have him.
James Bond: Had. Excuse me.
Felix Leiter: You're not buying in?
Felix Leiter: Listen, I'm bleeding chips. I'm not going to last much longer. You have a better chance. I'll stake you. I'm saying I'll give you the money to keep going. Just one thing: you pull it off, the CIA bring him in.
James Bond: What about the winnings?
Felix Leiter: Does it look like we need the money?

Casino Royale - James Bond's Martini Order in Casino Royale

Bartender: Oui, monsieur.

Bartender: Yes, sir.
Tomelli: You know, I'll have one of those.
Infante: So will I.

Felix Leiter: Someone's in a hurry.
