Col. Hans Landa: [to Aldo] So you're "Aldo the Apache". Lt. Aldo Raine: So you're "the Jew Hunter". Col. Hans Landa: A detective. A damn good dectective. Finding people is my specialty so naturally I work for the Nazis finding people, and yes some of...
Gusteau: Remy, what are you doing in here? Remy: [harassed] Emile shows up... I said not to, I told him! He goes and blabs - it's a disaster! Anyway, they're hungry, the food safe is locked, and I need the key. Gusteau: They want you to steal food? R...
James T. Kirk: [to Spock] The test itself is a cheat, isn't it? I mean, you programmed it to be unwinnable. Spock: Your argument precludes the possibility of a no-win scenario. James T. Kirk: I don't believe in no-win scenarios. Spock: Then not only ...
