The Punisher quotes

View Quote Quentin Glass: His real name's Frank Castle. Senior agent, just got the Bureau's London desk. His alias, connections, apartments in Europe-none of it was real. Not even his death.
Howard Saint: Well, maybe it was. Maybe he died and came back to life so he could die again.
Quentin: You have your chance. He's leaving for London next week, and he's at a family reunion in Puerto Rico.
Saint: I think you should be there, so you can come back and tell Livia how he dies.
Quentin: All right.
Livia Saint: Wait. (She lifts her veil.) His family. His whole family.

View Quote Micky Duka: Stay away from me, Castle! I got friends, you know.
Frank Castle: Let's talk about your friends.
Micky: Make your own friends, buddy. I'm not saying nothin'. I talk to you, they'll kill me.
Castle: If you don't help me, I'll kill you now, Mick.
Micky: The Saints tell me nothing!
Castle: Nothing? They pay your rent...your legal bills. You should know something.
Micky: What's the torch for?
Castle:Two thousand degrees, Mick. Enough to turn steel into butter. It won't hurt at first. It's, uh, too hot, you see? The flame sears the nerve endings shut, killing them. Then you'll go into shock...and all you'll feel is...cold. Isn't science fun, Micky?

View Quote (Dave and Bumpo hear agonized screams coming from Castle's apartment.)

Dave: Exactly!

View Quote (Castle shows up at a press conference at police headquarters.)
Detective: Castle? Where have you been?
Castle: It's been five months since my family was killed. I don't see one man in jail.
Chief Morris: Obviously, you're upset–
Castle: Upset? Is that the word? I used to get upset when I had a flat tire. I used to get upset when a plane was delayed. I used to get upset when the Yankees won the Series. So if that's what "upset" means, then how do I feel now? If you know the word, tell me, because I don't.

View Quote Dave, (reading from computer screen): He speaks six languages–he did two tours in the 12th Special Ops CTU.

View Quote Howard Saint: How is he still alive? I don't know, Quentin, I wasn't there. Why is he still alive? Now that...that is an interesting question. Maybe he's meant to suffer more, I don't know. But how can we make him suffer if we can't find him?
Quentin Glass: He's daring us.
Saint: No, no. He, he misses his family and he wants to die. He's asking for help-so let's help him.

View Quote Castle: Do I know you?

Harry Heck: You like that song? I wrote that for you. I'm gonna sing it at your funeral.

View Quote (Castle has joined his neighbors for dinner in Joan's apartment.)
Joan: I know it's not Thanksgiving, but, um, I'd like us all to say what we're thankful for. I'll start. Um...I'm thankful to be alive this year. And to have a job, and to be sober.
Dave: Yeah - I'm thankful for my mom...getting out of jail. You now, it's, it's cool. And this girl gave me her number...which is also cool.
Bumpo: Thanks for leftovers-I'm full. Thanks for Diet Pepsi. And thanks for good neighbors.
(There is a long, awkward silence while everyone stares at Castle.)
Castle: Thanks for dinner.
. . .
Joan: I know what it's like. I know what it's like to try and make your memories go away. You can make new memories. Good ones. Good memories can save your life.
Castle: I'm not what you're looking for.

View Quote Quentin Glass: Where's Castle? (Dave and Bumpo stare at the floor.) Frank Castle. Who lives here. (to Bumpo) I asked you a question, fat man.
Dave: Leave him alone.
Quentin: Then I'll ask you. Where's Castle?
Dave: He's not here.
Quentin: Really? Are you sure?
Dave: (mumbles unintelligibly.)
Quentin: What did you say? Hmm? I'm having a difficult time hearing you.
Dave: I said, "I'm not saying shit".
Quentin: I don't want you to say "shit", I want you to answer me. You don't want to say anything about anything you might know? (He gets a set of pliers from tool cabinet and sits facing Dave.) Well, maybe we should get to know each other better. What's your name?
Dave: Dave.
Quentin: You go to school around here? (Dave shakes his head.) You don't go to school?

Dave: No.
Quentin, pointing to eyebrow ring: That's a special one there, isn't it? Is that your favorite? That's hard to get.

Quentin, fiddling with pliers: Answer my question, please.
Dave: No.
Quentin: Come here. (He reaches for Dave's eyebrow ring with pliers.)
Dave: No... NO! (Quentin pins Dave's head and grabs the ring.)
Quentin: (to Bumpo) Your friend's about to have a bad day. You can save him by talking. It doesn't have to be this way. (to Dave) You think you know about pain, boy? What do you know about pain? Huh? (He rips out eyebrow ring; Dave screams.) That's okay, that's okay. Dave? Li'l Dave? Are you gonna tell me?

View Quote (Joan and Frank Castle ride elevator to ground floor, where Bumpo tends to the mangled Dave.)
Bumpo: Look what they did to him...
Dave: They tried to make me talk. I gave 'em nothing.
