Léon quotes

View Quote I know where to find the guys who killed my brother. Their boss is Norman Stansfield, and he's in the D.E.A. building, room 4602. I'm gonna do them myself.

View Quote I have a lot of respect for your business, Tony. When you've killed for us in the past, w-we've always been satisfied. And that's exactly why today is going to be very, very hard for me.

View Quote My man was killed right here on your turf, and the **** tell me that the hit man was kind of the, uh, Italian type. So we figured Tony might know something. Wait, there's more - you're gonna love this. A few hours later, a little twelve-year-old girl comes into my office armed to the teeth, with the firm intention of sending me straight to the morgue. And you know who came and got her, in the middle of the afternoon, right there in my building? The very same Italian hit man. I'm dying to meet him!

View Quote Hey! Hey-ey-ey-ey-ey! I just said take the guy out, not the whole ****ing building!
