Denzel Washington: John W. Creasy

Mann unter Feuer

John W. Creasy

Elderly Man: In the church, they say to forgive.
Creasy: Forgiveness is between them and God. It's my job to arrange the meeting.

Lisa: What are you gonna do?
Creasy: What I do best. I'm gonna kill 'em. Anyone that was involved. Anybody who profited from it. Anybody who opens their eyes at me.
Lisa: [Whispering] You kill 'em all.

Sister Anna: [after driving Pita to school for the first time] Do you ever see the Hand of God in what you do?
Creasy: No, not for a long time.
Sister Anna: The Bible says, "Do not be over come with evil, but overcome...?
Creasy: But overcome evil with good."
Creasy: [in Spanish] That's Romans Chapter 12 Verse 21.
Creasy: I am the sheep that got lost, Madre.

[Creasy has rectally inserted a five minute time bomb into Fuentes]
Fuentes: [with both his hands tied to the hood of the car] A last wish, please, please. Please.
Creasy: Last wish? I wish you had more time.

Creasy: Okay, my friend. It's off to the next life for you. I guarantee you, you won't be lonely.

Fuentes: [with both his hands tied to the hood of the car] You know, I-I'm a professional.
Creasy: That's what everybody keeps saying. "I'm just a professional". Everybody keeps saying that to me. "I'm just a professional", "I'm just a professional". I'm getting sick and tired of hearing that.

Creasy: [during a barbeque cookout at his home with his family] Do you think God'll forgive us for what we've done?
Rayburn: No.

Pita: [after helping her with her homework in the kitchen] Creasy
[pause]
Pita: You're smiling.
Creasy: What?
Pita: You were smiling.
Creasy: No, I'm not.
Pita: You were.
Creasy: No, I was not.
Pita: You're not now, but you were.
Creasy: No, *you* were smiling, I wasn't smiling.
Pita: You were.
Creasy: When?
Pita: Like, five seconds ago.
Creasy: I'm not smiling.
Pita: Well, a second ago you were.
Creasy: No, you said five seconds ago, now that's six. Six seconds ago I was not smiling.
Pita: Okay, 10 seconds ago.
Creasy: 10 seconds ago, I was smiling. Okay, in the next 10 seconds let's see who smiles first.
[pause]
Creasy: You smiled already. See? You did.
Pita: Mmm.
[pointing at Creasy]
Creasy: No, that wasn't a - That was a smirk, that's not a smile. A smirk is different. They both start with "S," but they're not the same - Do your homework.
Pita: [Creasy walks away] You were.

Creasy: [using a military approach to train her how to swim faster] There is no such thing as tough. There is trained and untrained. Now which are you?

[Creasy is planning to go after Fuentes, a high-ranking corrupt police lieutenant]
Mariana: He's protected better than our president.
Creasy: He's gonna need it.

Creasy: [Creasy to Rayburn in Rayburn's truck regarding punishing those who kidnapped Pita] Revenge is a meal best served cold.

Pita: [while doing her homework in her room] What was your first girlfriends' name?
Creasy: Nonya.
Pita: Nonya who?
Creasy: Nonya business.

Creasy: Do you know what this is? It's a charger used by convicts to hide money and drugs they tuck it up their rectum. This is pencil detonator, timer, used as a receiver from the pager. This is C4 highly explosive; you put it all together you've got a bomb, not very sophisticated, but very powerful.
[whispers in his ear]
Creasy: That's what you have in your ass right now. Don't move! Don't move!

Creasy: [using a military approach to train her how to swim faster] The gunshot holds no fear, say it.
Pita: The gunshot holds no fear.
Creasy: You welcome the sound. In fact it's the sound that sets you free. You are a prisoner on this block until that sound sets you free.

Creasy: [to Fuentes, with both his hands tied to the hood of the car] I got all the time in the world. *You* don't, but I do.
