Saul Rubinek Quotes

Henry Kissinger Excuse me, Mr. President. I was not informed that you were in the middle of... what the hell ARE you in the middle of?

John Ehrlichman What's going on? Who are these girls?

Henry Kissinger I dunno. But it doesn't look constitutional to me.

Little Bill Daggett You see, the night that Corky walked into the Blue Bottle, and before he knows what's happening, Bob here takes a shot at him! And he misses, cause he's so damn drunk. Now that bullet whizzing by panicked old Corky, and he did the wrong thing. He went for his gun in such a hurry that he shot his own damn toe off. Meantime Bob here, he's aiming real good, and he squeezes off another, but he misses, because he's still so damn drunk, and he hits this thousand-dollar mirror up over the bar. And now, the Duck of Death is as good as dead, because Corky does it right. He aims real careful, no hurry...

W.W. Beauchamp And...?

Little Bill Bam! That ] blew up in his hand, which was a failing common to that model. You see, if Corky had had two guns instead of just a big dick, he would have been there right to the end to defend himself.

Beauchamp Wait a minute. You mean that English Bob killed him, when he didn't even have...

Little Bill Well, old Bob wasn't gonna wait for Corky to grow a new hand. No, he just walked over there real slow - cause he was drunk - and shot him right through the liver.

Henry Kissinger I'll take responsibility here. I'll be the only person in this administration who's willing to take responsibility for anything.

W.W. Beauchamp Who'd you kill first? Was it Little Bill?

Will Munny What?

Beauchamp When confronted by superior numbers, an experienced gunfighter will always fire on the best shot first.

Will Is that a fact?

Beauchamp Yeah, Little Bill told me that.

Will I was lucky in the order, but I've always been lucky when it comes to killin folks.

Sam Smotherman Pete, it's good to see you, buddy. I'm dying to read your book, man. When's it coming out on tape?

Dr. Jim Curran All right, what do we think? What do we know? What can we prove?

The Choreographer The party's over.

Dr. Dennis Donohue When the doctors start acting like businessmen, who do the people turn to for doctors?

Roger Gail Lyon This is not a political issue. This is a health issue. This is not a gay issue. This is a human issue. And I do not intend to be defeated by it. I came here today in the hope that my epitaph would not read that I died of red tape.

Congressman Phil Burton I'll introduce a bill. But if all the angels came dancing down to earth like the Rockettes, even they couldn't get a dime out of this administration for anything with the name "gay" on it.

Dr. Luc Montagnier It's amazing to me that Americans can think a disease has a sexual preference. But that's all Americans think of... Sex. Sex. Sex.

Henry Kissinger It's alright, gentlemen. I'm familiar with these two young ladies. Well, not "familiar", familiar, obviously. I mean, I know them. We discussed foreign policy. Don't you give me that look!

W.W. Beauchamp So, Corky was actually quicker on the draw than the D— than English Bob?

Little Bill Daggett Quicker was his whole damn problem. If he hadn't been in such a hurry, he wouldn't have shot his own toe off. Look son, being a good shot, being quick with a pistol, that don't do no harm, but it don't mean much next to being cool-headed. A man who will keep his head and not get rattled under fire, like as not, he'll kill you. Look here. That's about as fast as I can draw, and aim, and hit anything more than ten feet away, less it's a barn.

Beauchamp But if he doesn't miss?

Little Bill Then he'll kill you. Yeah, that's why there's so few dangerous men around like old Bob, like me. It ain't so easy to shoot a man anyhow, especially if the son-of-a-bitch is shootin back at you. I mean, that'll just flat rattle some folks.
