Quote context

[...]

- Code breaking.

- Well, that's one aspect of what we do.

- Oh, come on. I mean, that is what you do. You guys handle eighty percent of the intelligence workload.

- You're seven times the size of the C.I.A.

- We don't like to brag about that, Will. But you're exactly right.

- So, the way I see it, the question isn't why should you work for the N.S.A.? The question is: Why shouldn't you?

- Why shouldn't I work for the N.S.A.? That's a tough one, but I'll take a shot.

- Say I'm workin' at the N.S.A. And somebody puts a code on my desk. Somethin' no one else can break.

- Maybe I take a shot at it, and maybe I break it. And I'm real happy with myself 'cause I did my job well.

- But maybe that code was the location of some rebel army in North Africa or the Middle East. And once they have that location, they bomb the village where the rebels are hidin'.

- Fifteen hundred people that I never met, never had no problem with, get killed.

- Now the politicians are sayin', Oh, send in the marines to secure the area. 'Cause they don't give a shit. It won't be their kid over there gettin' shot.

Top rated lines from this movie

You're an orphan, right? Do you think I'd know the first thing about how hard your life has been, how you feel, who you are because I read Oliver Twist? Does that encapsulate you?

So, what are you saying? You play the piano? -No, not a lick. I mean, I look at a piano, I see a bunch of keys, three pedals and a box of wood. But Beethoven, Mozart, they saw it, they could just play.

You're a tough kid. I ask you about war, you'd probably throw Shakespeare at me, right? Once more into the breach, dear friends. But you've never been near one.

You don't know about real loss 'cause that only occurs when you love something more than you love yourself. I doubt you've ever dared to love anybody that much.
