Quotations

Let me describe the scene to you: There's these guys, see? And they've probably been up for, like, two days. They stink of B.O, they have coffee breath, they're constipated from sittin' on their asses for so long, they are sitting in a van, and it's probably parked right up the street from your office. But now, you guys are gonna have to pack up your shit and go home, because I'm on to you, you dumb fucks! Eddie, your phone is tapped!

[after being questioned by Agent Mosley] Fucking fed stole my cigarettes.

[after Mosley pockets Dorfler's cigarettes during their second encounter] Why don't you just quit? It'd be cheaper for both of us!
