- Gunter Vogler: Look at you. So tough. The only way you could give a man pleasure in bed is if you shared half a sandwich.
- Lt. Karl Hagerman: Making the question whether the enemy of your enemy is your enemy or friend, followed by whether that enemy is the friend of your enemy or of the second enemy? And whether one or all three are enemies of Gunter, who is the enemy of both your enemies? Or perhaps not of your third enemy, who could also be your friend.
- Gunter Vogler: Hagerman, before this month is over, I will kill you.
- Racken's Mafiosi #1: May I ask, with all the bodyguards here, you picked the black guy for this degradation?
- Racken: Hey. Hey, hey. Do not go there. Seriously. I got lots of black guys in my mob. You may not know this, I was the first guy to recruit kids from low-test-score schools. It was like, it was like no-no juvenile delinquent left behind. It was a hell of a program.
- Racken: I know who is responsible for all this. Tannhauser. He's not a normal criminal, obviously. Probably never ate a hoagie in his life. You know, I'm going to drag his agoraphobic ass out in the street and make him eat snails. And I do not mean escargot. Hell no. I mean live, American slugs from the garden of a Detroit City autoworker.
