- I wish I could get rid of this thing.

- So that's how they found out about Anna. You told them, didn't you?

- Don't try to be a policeman, old man.

- What do you expect me to be? Part of your...

- Part? You can have any part you want as long as you don't interfere. I've never cut you out of anything.

Top rated lines from this movie

Nobody thinks in terms of human beings. Governments don't. Why should we? They talk about the people and the proletariat. I talk about the suckers and the mugs. It's the same thing.
