Quotes 

• Chili Palmer : Martin, look at me.

  Martin : I'm looking at you.

  Chili Palmer : No, I want you to look at me the way I'm looking at you. Put it in your eyes, 'You're mine, asshole,' without saying it.

  Martin : Like this?

  [heavy lidded eyes] 

  Chili Palmer : What you're telling me, you're tired? You wanna go to bed?

  Martin : Wait. How about this?

  [squints] 

  Chili Palmer : Now you're squinting like you need glasses.

  Martin : Well, what are you getting...

  Chili Palmer : Look at me. What I'm thinking is, 'You're mine. I fuckin' own you.' But what I'm not doing is feeling anything about it one way or the other. You understand? You're not a person to me, you're a name in my collection book, a guy owes me money, that's all.

  [Martin does the look once again] 

  Chili Palmer : Whoah.

  Karen Flores : He's... he's good.

  Chili Palmer : You nailed it.

  Martin : [guttural]  That's what I think of you, asshole. Nothing.

  Chili Palmer : That's why you're Martin Weir.

• Martin : And I'm wondering: how did it all slip away?

  Karen : Well, it didn't slip away, Martin. You did, when you went off to fuck Nicky at my birthday party.

  Martin : Yeah, that was a good party.

• Chili Palmer : Martin, look at me.

  Martin Weir : I'm looking at you

  Chili Palmer : No, look at me the way I'm looking at you.

• Martin : You know it might help you to take another look at "Cyclone", the way a visual fabric is maintained while the metaphor plays on different levels.

  Chili Palmer : Ahhh...

• Martin : [to Harry]  I'm really glad you rejected me ten years ago when I auditioned for the part of Eddie Solomon, the pedophile clown in "Birthday Boy". If I'd have gotten that part, I might have been typecast.

• Martin Weir : I feel like an omelet. Can you make an egg white omelet, but with shallots, with the shallots only slightly brown, very little olive oil, and no salt?
