"[while beating a tailgater] Don't tailgate! Don't you ever tailgate! Do you know how much space is needed to stop a car traveling at 35 miles per hour? Six car lengths! Six fuckin' car lengths! That's a hundred and six fuckin' feet, mister! If I had to stop suddenly, you woulda hit me! I want you to get a fuckin' driver's manual, and I want you to study that motherfucker! And I want you to obey the the goddamn rules of the road! Fifty-fuckin' thousand people were killed on the highways last year 'cause of fuckin' assholes like you! Tell me you're gonna get a manual!"

"Back when Cowboy Bebop was in production, we never knew that Japanese anime would have any impact overseas, so we totally didn't see Westerners being exposed to the show. We just made what we enjoyed making, and the fact that it got accepted in the west at all was the most surprising thing. I grew up with US movies so it made me very happy that Americans liked my things, because I was raised on their things, in a way. The moment that made the biggest impact on me here did involve Edward, because Edward was a character I made thinking that no person existed like her in real life. But when I went to Texas, there was someone cosplaying as Ed, and it was like they'd stepped out of the anime. It was completely her if she had been living. How's that for a big impact?"

"Then it hits me like a kick in the nuts: What if I'm wrong? I've got a condition. I get confused sometimes. What if I've imagined all this? What if I've finally turned into what they've always said I'd turn into: A maniac? A psycho killer?"

"There is no justice without sin."

"In a city, there is a shaky truce between those who rule the streets, and those who rule everything."

"Q: Why did you think Elijah Wood would make such a convincing psycho?"

"Robert Rodriguez: Mickey [Rourke] had this one piece of music he would play on the set to get him into the character of Marv. We couldn't use it in the movie because it was too expensive. It was a Johnny Cash song - it was actually a remake of a Nine Inch Nails song called Hurt. You play that song and if you listen to that song that's how he did Marv for all the voiceover. It would just help him to get into that place - that Marv place. We got some remarkable work from him just from playing that song. That's his time machine. His transport."

"Cardinal Roark: When he came to me he was a tormented boy. Tormented by guilt. I tried to counsel him, but the eating, it filled him with white light. Tearful, he swore to me that he felt the touch of God Almighty. He didn't just eat their bodies. He ate their souls. And I joined in."

"Senator Roark: Everyone would lie for me. Everyone who counts. Otherwise, their own lies — everything that runs Sin City — it all comes tumbling down like a pack of cards."

"Senator Roark: Power don't come from a badge or a gun. Power comes from lying. Lying big and gettin' the whole damn world to play along with you. Once you've got everybody agreeing with what they know in their hearts ain't true, you've got 'em by the balls."

"Junior: You recognize my voice, Hartigan? You recognize my voice, you piece-of-shit cop? I look different, but I bet you can recognize my voice."

"Brian: Better come clean with ya now, sweetheart. That was an outright lie I was giving ya about my revolver."

"Brian: I coulda put a bullet in your ear just now, laddy, if I hadn't gone off and got me revolver all wet and useless."

"The Salesman: Care for a smoke? [repeated line]"

"The Salesman: Turn the right corner in Sin City and you can find anything"

"Wendy: Kill him for me, Marv. Kill him good."

"Shlubb: A worthy concern. Neatly elucidated."

"Klump: Irrelevant to said mission is the following query, which I now put forth to you. Wherein this most streamlined and trunkless of transports, boner-inspiring though it may be, wherein are we to reposit our recently deceased cargo?"

"Shlubb: Protest though you might, Mr. Klump, you must nonetheless admit the phallic magistry of said Ferrari's performance. An engine of Cyclopean power throbs beneath this steel stallion's hood."

"Klump: It is inclement upon me to comment with marked displeasure on your rash impulsiveness in selecting such an eye-catching and impractical car to heist, Mr. Shlubb."

"You could've ripped my throat out, you crazy whore!"

"I didn't have no choice. They were gonna hurt my mom."

"Aw, sugar, you just gone and done the dumbest thing in your whole life."

"It's not a woman you need, it's a good night's sleep. You couldn't handle a woman in the state you're in."

"My man will find a way. He always finds a way."

"Your precious scrawny little neck.[said before tearing a piece of skin off Becky's neck with her teeth.]"

"You stupid little bitch!"

"We got guns. We'll fight the cops, and the mob, and anybody who tries to move in on us. We'll go to war!"

"He's dead. He's just too damn dumb to know it."

"I tied those knots — that's my specialty!"

"Those hookers let you down!"

"You're makin' a big mistake, man... a big mistake."

"Nobody ever really quits. A smoker's a smoker when the chips are down. And your chips are down."

"This is a career-ending wound, whore!"

"[after getting slashed by Miho] Out of nowhere... without any reason!"
