Frank Moses : I was just hoping you'd be a little more understanding of the situation.

[Frank and Marvin are being chased by the Moldovan Ground Forces with Marvin wearing a dress and sitting in a wheelbarrow that is being pushed by Frank]
Marvin Boggs : I told you something bad was gonna happen.
Frank Moses : [annoyed] Keep your dress on!

Frank Moses : [over his shoulder] Moldova sucks!
Marvin Boggs : Next time, your girlfriend can wear the dress.
-
Victoria : Oh, Francis, you're such a romantic.
Frank Moses : What?
Victoria : A romantic. It's why I've always been so fond of you.
Frank Moses : Victoria...
Victoria : You're all hard on the outside, but you are... you are gooey on the inside... gooey.
-
Frank Moses : People get shot all the time.
Sarah Ross : No, they don't. They get... paper cuts.
Marvin Boggs : I mostly get shot.
-
Frank Moses : How'd you do it?
Victoria : What?
Frank Moses : How'd you make the transition? Here you seem so calm. At ease.
Victoria : I love it. I love it here. I love the baking. I love the flower arranging. I like... I like the routine.
[Frank gives her a look]
Victoria : Well, I... I do get a bit restless sometimes.
Frank Moses : Mm-hmm.
Victoria : I take the odd contract on the side. I-I just can't stop.

Frank Moses : [brings out a gas torch] Where'd you get this?

Marvin Boggs : Frank, we gotta get rid of this broad. I know a great place, just up the road. Lots of alligators.
Frank Moses : We're not getting rid of the broad. I like her. Okay?
Marvin Boggs : Well, wait? What's the angle?
Frank Moses : No angle. I like her.
Marvin Boggs : Ok. So... they pull her voice from the pay phone, probably right now, install the recognition software and backtrace it to Singer. So, then we show up, they bring out the satellite, and we're fried with Y-rays.
-
Frank Moses : [on the phone] Did you start that new book?
Sarah Ross : I did.
Sarah Ross : And? What's it called?
Sarah Ross : Uh, it's called "Love's Savage Secret".
Frank Moses : Nice. Is it any good?
Sarah Ross : It's terrible. I love it. It's awful.
-
Sarah Ross : [drugged and almost kidnapped] Am I gonna die?
Frank Moses : No. You just need some sleep.

Frank Moses : Six one? Cute hair?
Henry, The Records Keeper : Hair was cute.

[Frank calls Cooper on the phone; Cooper is told to stall him while the call is traced]
Frank Moses : Here's the thing, Cooper. With age... comes a certain perspective. I'd be a liar if I said there wasn't a time when I was exactly like you. Blind ambition. Misplaced trust.
William Cooper : Why are you telling me this?
Frank Moses : It may help me to decide what to do next.
Interrogation Surveillance Tech : [technician tracing the call whispering to Cooper] Just keep it going.
William Cooper : Why? What are you thinking about?
Frank Moses : Our business is a very hard one. But it was never the, uh... the killing or the stress, the bad pay that bothered me.
William Cooper : Well, what was it, Frank?
Frank Moses : It's how anything that you love... can be taken away from you. It taught me never to care. Never to invest. Then I met this woman. Sarah. And now you have her. Now I can't think of anything more horrible than to know that your enemies can hurt someone you love. The feeling is almost indescribable.
[the trace completes, and the technician hands Cooper a printout]
Frank Moses : You still there, Cooper?
William Cooper : [horrified] You're at my house
[Frank looks out the window into the yard where Cooper's wife and two children, unaware, are playing]
Frank Moses : Almost indescribable, isn't it?
William Cooper : [whispering] Please... Please don't hurt my family.
Frank Moses : If anything happens to Sarah, I will rip everything you love out of your life. And then I'll kill you.
-
Frank Moses : [after business woman just misses with an RPG and Marvin walks back out from behind the shipping container] What are you doing?
Marvin Boggs : [waits for her to reload and fire, then shoots it in mid-air and it blows her up] Old man, my ass.
-
Victoria : Dunning is the CEO of Browning-Orvis.
Marvin Boggs : Gangsters.
Frank Moses : Defense contractor. Very connected.
Joe Matheson : You know, if the CIA is protecting him, he's under surveillance.
Frank Moses : We could go see him.
Victoria : You're not going without me.
Joe Matheson : Well, we're getting the band back together. That's nice.
-
[first lines]
Frank Moses : [on the phone] 943-66-2291. Pension Services, please.
Woman : Thank you, Mr. Moses, please hold for your representative.
-
Gabriel Singer : I got one for you. What did this twice-decorated, West Texas Jew-boy Marine pilot say to the Chinese New York Times reporter?
Frank Moses : I give up.
Gabriel Singer : Nothing. I didn't tell her a damn thing.
Frank Moses : The reporter's dead now. And everyone she spoke to is either dead or a target. That includes you.
-
Ivan Simanov : [pours a second round] Drink.
Frank Moses : Who are we drinking to now?
Ivan Simanov : Veronique. She... was mine.
Frank Moses : Impossible.
Ivan Simanov : [laughing] Yes!
[they clink glasses]
Frank Moses : [smiles ruefully] Whatever she got, it was worth it.
-
Frank Moses : Don't get me wrong, I know it's crazy. Don't think that, I don't think that this crazy. And it couldn't be more different than how I'd hoped to meet you for the first time.
[the camera pans to the rear-view mirror which reveals that Frank has had to gag Sarah by duct taping her mouth shut, as while he may like her, her protests are preventing him from helping her]
Frank Moses : But you know sometimes things happen. And I just hope that one day, you and I will be sitting somewhere comfortably and look back on this as the great big adventure that it is.
[still furious, Sarah rants and raves but her shouting at Frank is muffled by her gag]
Frank Moses : I'm a little hungry too, what should we get?
Sarah Ross : [Sarah calms down after her rant and while she remains gagged in the back of the car, she accepts her current situation and lets out a muffled but comprehensible response] Pizza.
-
Sarah Ross : [Frank and Sarah arrive at the motel. Once Frank has finished tying Sarah to the bed, he removes the duct tape from her mouth] If you, if you let me go now, I won't press charges, there's no hard feelings
Frank Moses : What claim?
Sarah Ross : How do I always attract losers like you?
Frank Moses : I was in the CIA
Sarah Ross : Yeah, I bet you were. I bet you're a spy
Frank Moses : I have to go and see someone now
Sarah Ross : You're just gonna make me sit here? What, this...
Frank Moses : You couldn't be safer, no-one knows where you are
[Frank grabs a roll of duct tape and tears a strip off]
Sarah Ross : Oh no! You don't, don't do it, you don't! Please, I-I, I don't want it
Frank Moses : Just stay still, sorry
[Sarah squirms for a while before sitting still and allowing Frank to duct tape her mouth shut and gag her again]
Frank Moses : Your eyes are so beautiful
-
Frank Moses : We don't have much time. Do you understand that?
William Cooper : What are you gonna do, Frank?
Frank Moses : I'm gonna kill the Vice President. What are you gonna do?
-
Victoria : Ivan?
Ivan Simanov : Zaychik moy.
Victoria : It's nice to see you again, Ivan.
Frank Moses : Did he just call you "bunny"?
Victoria : Life sometimes is complicated.
-
Sarah Ross : You can't just go around duct taping everyone. People are basically kind of decent.
Frank Moses : That hasn't always been my experience.
-
Frank Moses : We have to find Marvin Boggs.
Sarah Ross : Marvin died two years ago in a fire.
Frank Moses : Yeah. Marvin has died many times.
-
Frank Moses : [to Marvin] Get a car. Try not to kill anyone.
-
Sarah Ross : Thanks for saving me. I guess.
Frank Moses : No problem.
Sarah Ross : Not my best first date. Not my worst, either.
-
Marvin Boggs : She likes you.
Frank Moses : How can you tell?
Marvin Boggs : Notice how she sticks around? 'Cause if women don't like you, they don't stick around.
Frank Moses : She doesn't have much of a choice. Does she?
Marvin Boggs : Sure she does.
Frank Moses : Really? You think so?
