Nick Rice quotes from Law Abiding Citizen (2009)

Rice

Your honour, I would caution you not to do that!

Clyde

Thank you!

Excuse me?

Clyde

No, I don't think I will excuse you. [to everyone] You see, this is what I'm talkin' about. You are about to let me go - are you kidding me? This is why we're here in the first place. [everyone looks at him in surprise] You think I don't remember who you are, lady?

I would tread carefully, Mr. Shelton.

Clyde

Well how carefully should I tread!? Because apparently, I just killed two people! And you are about to let me walk right out that door! How misguided are you!? I feed you a couple of bullshit legal precedents, and there you go - you jump on it like a bitch in heat! [The judge indignantly bangs her gavel repeatedly] Folks, you all hang out in the same little club!

I'm warning you! Mr. Shelton! You will be held in contempt of this court!

Clyde

And every day you let madmen and murderers back on the street! You're too busy treating the law like it's a **** assembly line!

One more time! One more time!

Clyde

Do you have any idea what justice is!? Whatever happened to right and wrong!?

You are now in contempt of court! Remove this man from my court.

Clyde

Christ! Whatever happened to right and wrong!? Whatever happened to the people!? Whatever happened to justice!?

Bail denied! Bail denied.

Clyde

And I bet you take it up the ****in' ass! Bitch! See you later, Nick.

Bailiff...

Nick Rice

That was you on video killing Clarence Darby, wasn't it?

Clyde Shelton

Yes, that was me.

Clyde

Okay, fair enough, that was me, Clyde Shelton on the video, killing Clarence Darby.

Nick

Not good enough, Clyde, I need specifics.

Clyde

I took his fingers with bolt cutters, his toes with tin snips, his balls with a hacksaw, and his penis with a box cutter. How's that for specifics?(!)
