• Ken : If you live by principles, you have nothing to fear. Be strong.

• Ken : [as Ho tries to apply for a job at United Taxi Co]  It's very difficult for an ex-con to find a job. Who wants to employ an ex-con? No need to get depressed. Everyone here has been in jail before. Some people like to adopt orphans... I like to take care of ex-convicts! You see, I have also been in prison before. Colleagues... this brother has just been released. Take good care of him.

• Ken : Are the police above the law? I'll send my insurance claim to you.

• Ken : [after Sung Tse Ho beats up several triad members for destroying the lot at United Taxi Co]  You bastard!

  Ho Tse Sung : Ken, it's my fault. I didn't mean to involve you!

  Ken : If you fight back, you're just like them! They beat on people because they're weak! If you hit them back, you'll be back where you started! It's so hard to change paths! Why'd you even bother?

• Ken : [as United Taxi Co. co-workers who are introduced to Ho]  What are you doing? Trying to win favors? Get back to work!

• [as Ho first enters United Taxi Co] 

  Ho Tse Sung : You the manager?

  Ken : There's no manager here.

• Ken : [handing cookies to his workers]  Break time!

  United Taxi Co. Co-worker : Thank you, Ken.

  Ken : Don't thank me. It's deducted from your salary.

  United Taxi Co. Co-worker : You're so mean!

  United Taxi Co. Co-worker : Hey, I've got a wife to support.

• Ken : It's easy to become a gangster, but it's hard to get out.
