- I will clean it.- It's not important.- It is important to me.- It's only coffee.- Everything is only something.- I have no idea what that means.
- Give.- Mostly everyone paid.- And them that didn't?- Oh, they paid as well.
- They spend it fast as you can make it, huh?- We manage to make do.- Who wants to settle for that?
- Now you all know I'm a builder at heart. Before I took this office and after I leave it...- What about during it?

That's the more interesting question. Before all the headaches begin.- I just thought...- You were wrong.- You'll have it first thing tomorrow. Is that okay?- Of course it is.

Dickie was resourceful.- My man outside tell a different tale.- A rapist kills and a killer lies.- You don't have any proof.- That burden is on you.- How's that?- A female of the Nordic tribe, a Libyan man... degraded, a discredit to his blood, but a Libyan nonetheless. The verdict is inescapable.
- A thing mixed is a thing weakened.- Is that from the Bible?- It is from me.- It's nice for cocktails.- To hide the impurities, but they are there. And with each dilution, the spirit slips away. The spirit and the color until nothing authentic is left.
