Quotes

  • Now that there is the Tec-9, cheap-ass little spray gun made outta South Miami. It retails for $380. I get 'em for 2, sell 'em for 8. They advertise this Tec-9 as the most popular gun in American crime. Do you believe that shit? It actually says that in the little booklet that comes with it: "the most popular gun in American crime". Like they're actually proud of that shit.
  • AK-47. The very best there is. When you absolutely, positively got to kill every motherfucker in the room, accept no substitutes.
  • [to Beaumont] You know man, I hate be the kind of nigga that do a nigga a favor and then Bam! hit the nigga up for a favor in return, but I gots to be that kinda nigga.
  • My ass may be dumb, but I ain't no dumbass.
  • You know your bail bondsmen, don'tcha? You know all them motherfuckers as crooked as a barrel of snakes, don'tcha?!
  • Six players on the trail of a half a million in cash. There's only one question... Who's playing who?
