"[While police brutally try to blackmail him] This is just a price I promised myself I'd pay, now I'm paying it. You don't save a little girl's life and then turn around and throw her to the dogs. Not in my book you don't.. They want a confession? They won't get it."

"Hell of a way to end a partnership. Hell of a way to start my retirement."

"Just look at that trunk. We'll never fit them all in."

"Miho, I hope to hell ya left one of them alive enough to talk."

"The girls all know the score. No escape. No surrender. No mercy. We got to kill every last rat bastard one of them, every last one. Not for revenge. Not because they deserve it. not because it'll make the world a better place. We need a heap of bloody bodies so when the mob boss, Wallenquist, looks over his charts of profits and losses, he'll see what it cost him to mess with the girls of Old Town. The valkyrie at my side is shouting and laughing with the pure, hateful, bloodthirsty joy of the slaughter. And so am I. The fire, baby. It'll burn us both. There's no place in this world for our kind of fire. My warrior woman. My valkyrie. You'll always be mine. Always. And never."

"Little Miho, you're an angel, you're a saint, you're Mother Teresa, you're Elvis. You're God. And if you'd gotten here about ten minutes sooner, we'd still have Jackie-Boy's head."

"I don't have a chance in hell of outrunning this cop. Not in this heap. The only question left is whether I'm gonna kill him or not. Tough call. For all I know, he's an honest cop, regular guy. Working stiff with a mortgage, a wife and a pile of kids."

"Sure, he's an asshole. Sure he's dead. Sure, I'm just imagining that he's talking. That doesn't stop the bastard from being absolutely right."

"She doesn't quite chop his head off. She makes a Pez dispenser out of him."

"I let him know I'm not fooling around."

"It's time to prove to your friends that you're worth a damn. Sometimes that means dying, sometimes it means killing a whole lot of people."

"A hardtop with a decent engine. And make sure it's got a big trunk."

"You made a big mistake yourself...you didn't flush."

"I'm Shellie's new boyfriend, and I'm out of my mind. If you so much as talk to her or even think her name, I'll cut you in ways that'll make you useless to a woman."

"Most people think Marv is crazy. He just had the rotten luck of being born in the wrong century. He'd be right at home on some ancient battlefield swinging an axe into somebody's face. Or in a Roman arena, taking his sword to other gladiators like him. They would've tossed him girls like Nancy back then."

"You shut the hell up, Jackie Boy. You're dead. I'm just imagining this, so shut the hell up."

"Dozens of them, armed to the teeth. I'm outnumbered, outgunned... but the alley is crooked, dark, and very narrow. They can't surround me. Sometimes you can beat the odds by a careful choice of where to fight...Where to fight counts for a lot, but there's nothing like having your friends show up with lots of guns."

"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!"
