Quotations

There's an old saying: Keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer.

You obviously do not know who you are FUCKING WITH!

[To Rush] You didn't think I forgot about you, did ya?

[When he sees the vampire nightclub, which is packed with several hundred vampires] You've got to be kidding me.

[After Scud asks about what Blade through about his betrayal] Two things: One, I've been onto you since they turned you. And two... [About the "dud" explosive Scud is holding] it's not a dud.

[To Reinhardt] Can you blush?

[after being scolded for turning on the ultraviolet light] Yeah well some of us can't see in the dark ya fuckin' nipple head, what am I supposed to do?

They tortured me almost to death, and then let me heal in a vat of blood so they could go at it again. Sorry sons of bitches could have at least fixed my damn leg while they were at it.

[After Scud punches him] Why, you little shit.
