Quotes
-
James Bond : [Interrupting the opera house conversation] Can I offer an opinion? I really think you people should find a better place to meet.
-
James Bond : [Bond is holding Yusef and Corinne at gunpoint] Sit down!
[they both sit]
James Bond : [looking at Corinne] You're Canadian...? You work in Canadian intelligence?
[Corinne doesn't answer]
James Bond : That's all right... I know you do. And knowing this man, you likely have access to some very sensitive material that you're going to be forced to give up. His life will be threatened... and because you love him, you won't hesitate.
[pause; Bond looks at Corinne's necklace]
James Bond : That's a beautiful necklace. Did he give it to you?
[Corinne still doesn't answer]
James Bond : [showing her Vesper's necklace] I have one just like it. He gave it to a friend of mine... someone very close to me. Your name is...?
Corinne : Corinne.
James Bond : Corinne... Corinne, I suggest you leave now. You contact your people, and you tell them to check their seals. They have a leak. Do it now, please. This man and I have some unfinished business.
Corinne : [softly, as she leaves] Thank you.
[Bond turns back to Yusef]
Yusef : Please. Make it quick.
-
M : Bond, if you could avoid killing every possible lead, it would be deeply appreciated.
James Bond : Yes, Ma'am. I'll do my best.
M : I've heard that before.
-
James Bond : They say you're judged by the strength of your enemies.
-
James Bond : [at a dirty, small motel] What are we doing?
Strawberry Fields : We're teachers on sabbatical. This fits our cover.
James Bond : No it doesn't. I'd rather stay at a morgue. Come on.
[they go to a nicer hotel]
James Bond : [to the hotel receptionist] Hello. We're teachers on sabbatical and we've just won the lottery.
-
M : Ask him about Slate.
Tanner : She wants to know about Slate.
James Bond : Slate was a dead end.
Tanner : He says it was a dead end.
M : Damn it! He killed him.
-
Camille : So, what's your interest in Greene?
James Bond : Among other things, he tried to kill a friend of mine.
Camille : A woman?
James Bond : Yes. But it's not what you think.
Camille : Your mother?
James Bond : She likes to think so.
-
M : The Americans are gonna be none too pleased.
James Bond : I promised them Le Chiffre and they got Le Chiffre.
M : They got his body.
James Bond : Well, if they wanted his soul, they should have made a deal with a priest.
-
James Bond : How much oil did the Americans promise you?
M : This isn't about oil.
James Bond : Well, that's good because there isn't any.
M : It's about trust. You said you weren't motivated by revenge.
James Bond : I'm motivated by my duty.
M : No. I think you're so blinded by inconsolable rage that you don't care who you hurt. When you can't tell your friends from your enemies, it's time to go.
-
M : You killed a man in Bregenz.
James Bond : I did my best not to.
M : You shot him at point blank and threw him off a roof. I would hardly call that showing restraint!
-
Camille : You lost somebody?
James Bond : I did.
Camille : You catch who ever did it?
James Bond : No, not yet.
Camille : Tell me when you do, I'd like to know how it feels...
-
James Bond : I don't think the dead care about vengeance.
-
Camille : [notices they are being followed] Friend of yours?
James Bond : I don't have any friends.
-
Strawberry Fields : Mr. Bond, my name is Fields. I'm from the consulate.
James Bond : Of course you are. And what do you do at the consulate Fields?
Strawberry Fields : That's not important. My orders are to turn you around and put you on the first plane to London.
James Bond : [Walking past her] Do those orders include my friend Mathis?
Strawberry Fields : [to Mathis] I'm sorry, I don't know who you are.
James Bond : [to Mathis] You see? You've been gone for such a short time and you're already forgotten.
Mathis : You're just saying that to hurt me.
Strawberry Fields : [Following Bond out] Mr. Bond, these orders come from the highest possible authority.
James Bond : Taxi! Fields, when is the next flight to London?
Strawberry Fields : Tomorrow morning.
James Bond : Well then, we have all night.
Strawberry Fields : If you attempt to flee I will arrest you, drop you off at the jail and take you to the plane in chains, understand?
James Bond : [Opening the taxi door] Perfectly. After you.
Mathis : I think she has handcuffs.
James Bond : I hope so.
-
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 would carve this place up.
Felix Leiter : I'll take that as a compliment coming from a Brit.
-
James Bond : I'm sorry, Mr. Greene, but we have to go.
Dominic Greene : Please. My friends call me Dominic.
James Bond : I'm sure they do.
-
James Bond : [to Camille] Have you ever killed someone? The training will tell you that when the adrenaline kicks in you should compensate. But part of you's not going to believe the training because this kill is personal. Take a deep breath. You only need one shot. Make it count.
-
James Bond : [chucks a can of motor oil at Greene's feet] I bet you make it 20 miles before you consider drinking that.
[Bond gets in the car and drives away, leaving Greene stranded in the middle of the desert]
James Bond : Goodbye, Mr. Greene.
-
Camille : How much did he want?
James Bond : He wanted you but I left the car as collateral. He'll get much more when he sells us out.
-
James Bond : [to Colonel Cuervo, who had killed Rene Mathis] You and I had a mutual friend!
-
Mathis : You can't sleep?
Bartender on Virgin Flight : May I fix you a drink, Sir?
Mathis : What are you drinking?
James Bond : I don't know. What am I drinking?
Bartender on Virgin Flight : Three measures of Gordon's Gin, One of Vodka, Half a measure of Kina...
Mathis : Kina Lillet.
Bartender on Virgin Flight : Kina Lillet, which is not Vermouth. Shaken well until it is ice cold and served with a large, thin slice of lemon peel. Six of them.
Mathis : That's impressive.
James Bond : They're good. You should have one.
-
[Bond shows up for his rendezvous with Camille having just survived a knife-fight]
Camille : You're late!
James Bond : Got pulled into a meeting.
-
M : What happened to Slate?
James Bond : I'm not dwelling on the past. I don't think you should either.
M : You killed him.
-
Strawberry Fields : [Sitting naked in bed] Do you know how angry I am at myself?
James Bond : I can't imagine.
[Kisses her back]
James Bond : You must be furious.
-
James Bond : My sources tell me you're Bolivian Secret Service. Or, used to be. I thought you'd infiltrated Greene's organization by having sex with him.
Camille : That offends you?
James Bond : No. Not the slightest.
-
James Bond : Are you going to tell us who you work for?
Mr. White : I was always very interested to meet you. I heard so much about you from Vesper. The real shame is, if she hadn't killed herself we would've had you too.
-
James Bond : How long have I got?
Felix Leiter : Thirty seconds.
James Bond : That doesn't give us a lot of time...
-
[drags Mr. White onto an interrogation chair]
James Bond : Don't bleed to death.
-
Camille : We didn't settle on a price.
James Bond : Make me an offer.
Camille : We can work it out later over drinks.
-
M : [On the phone] Bond, are you missing the fact that you killed a member of the Special Branch. I need you to come in.
James Bond : And I would, but, right now I need to find the man who tried to kill you. Go back to sleep.
-
M : I assume you have no regrets.
James Bond : I don't! What about you?
M : Of course not. It would be unprofessional.
-
James Bond : [Bond's first line] Its time to get out.
-
James Bond : I need some information.
[Gives Mathis a stack of photographs]
Mathis : Oh, you have some hard friends. This man is some kind of facilitator. Fingers in many pies and they don't leave any prints.
-
Camille : So, its British Intelligence now. What the hell do you want from me?
James Bond : You're going to show me Dominic Greene's Tierra Project. Are you up to it?
Camille : Do I have a choice?
James Bond : Do you want one?
-
James Bond : Now, you and I need to see this through.
M : There's no where to go. There's a capture or kill order out on you.
James Bond : Who would have done that?
-
James Bond : Are you sure you're playing with the right side?
Felix Leiter : Regimes change once a week down here.
-
James Bond : I think I found a way out.
-
James Bond : [sarcastically] 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?
