The Jackal quotes

Page 2 of 2
[The Jackal has just mortally wounded Valentina] [points to her wound]

Press here. Hard. It'll slow the bleeding.

[Valentina does so, and moans in pain, as the Jackal puts a pillow under her head]

Ah. See, that's bad. The blood's almost black. That means the bullet's in your liver. You've got about twenty minutes to live. [draws a heart shape on her cheek with her blood] If the pain gets to be too much, take your hand away, and you'll be dead in five minutes.

[fiercely]

When Declan kills you, you think of me, okay?

[smiles]

Sure, I'll do that.

[He suddenly grabs her head and whispers cruelly in her ear]

If you see Declan before you die, tell him that he can't protect his women.

[after splitting an associate's head with an axe]

I loved this man like a brother. He was a dear friend and partner to me... so I took no joy in that. But just think, if I can do this to someone I love, imagine what I can do with someone I hate! So, the American FBI declares war on us? Then war it is.
