Eastern Promises quotes

Have you ever met a girl named Tatiana?

I meet lot of girls named Tatiana.

She was pregnant.

Ah, in that case – no, I've never heard of her.

She died on my shift.

I thought you did birth?

Sometimes birth and death go together. She came in with needle punches all over both arms. Probably a prostitute, at the age of fourteen. Do you think Semyon's son knew her?

I am driver. I go left, I go right, I go straight ahead – that's it.

My uncle has gone missing, since I told you about him translating the diary.

Your uncle is fine, he is in Edinburgh, in a 5-Star Hotel. I was ordered to send him to Heaven with a bullet in his brain... instead I gave him a first class ticket to Scotland. He is old-school, he understands things... exile or death.

Azim

Show some respect!

(produces large amount of cash)

This is respect!

I need you to take Semyon out of the picture. I want you to arrest him.

Yuri

Arrest him for what?

Rape. The girl was 14.

Yuri

And of course she will testify?

She is dead, but she had Semyon's baby. If you can prove baby was his, and girl was underage, that is statutory rape. You have baby, you need Semyon's DNA. For poetic reasons, I suggest you take his blood.

I will need my spectacles and a clear head. Today I broke my rules and I drank vodka. Tomorrow I will translate it, and then I will bring what I've done to your home.

It's always good to have someone who I can trust, to do simple tasks. In this business, sometimes the biggest danger comes from the most stupid things.

Okay. Now I'm going to do his teeth and cut off his fingers. You might want to leave room. (Puts out his cigarette on his tongue)
