Lucky Number Slevin quotes

Page 2 of 5

Listen, I've been hearing that a lot lately--

[interrupting]

My father used to say: "The first time someone calls you a horse you punch him on the nose, the second time someone calls you a horse you call him a jerk but the third time someone calls you a horse, well then perhaps it's time to go shopping for a saddle."

Ok, I'm under the impression that you're under the impression that I owe you 96,000 dollars.

No, you owe Slim Hopkins 96,000 dollars. You owe Slim, Slim owes me... You owe me.

This isn't the first time this has happened, you know.

You mean this isn't the first time a crime lord asked you to kill the gay son of a rival gangster to pay off a debt that belongs to a friend whose place you're staying in as a result of losing your job, your apartment, and finding your girlfriend in bed with another guy?

No, this is the first time THAT happened, but Nick has been painting me into corners since we were kids.

Sloe

The Boss wants to see you.

Who?

Sloe

The Boss.

Who's the Boss?

Sloe

The guy we work for. Sit

Look. I'm not the guy you're looking for. I don't live here.

Sloe

Yeah well you look like the guy who lives here.

Man, you don't know what the guy who lives here looks like.

What he means to say is that you look like you live here.

Sloe

Yeah, that's what I mean to say.

Sloe

The guy we lookin' for. His name is uh, his name is-

His name is Nick, man.

Sloe

Nick, yeah. The cat's name is Nick. Now who, who are you?

I'm Slevin.(Sloe mutters the name confused for a minute)

Sloe

You got some ID?(Short pause)

You see the funny thing about that is I got mugged this morning-

Sloe

Hey! Tell it to the one-legged man, so he can bump it off down the road.

Smith

There was a time.

Buddy
[wakes up, sees a man in a wheelchair is addressing him, and checks his watch]

4:35.

Smith

You misunderstood. I wasn't asking for the time, I was just saying "there was a time."

Buddy

There was a time?

Smith

Mm-hmm. Take Brown Sugar back there, for example. [indicates elderly woman] She's pretty **** foxy, right?

Buddy
[pause]

She's seventy.

Smith

If she's a day. But there was a time.

They call him "the Fairy"...

Why do they call him "the Fairy"?

[impatiently]

Because he's a fairy.

What, he's got wings, he can fly, he sprinkles magic dust all over the place?

[angrily]

He's a homosexual.

You? You're the triggerman.

Me?

You.

Aren't there professionals? People you can hire to do this sort of thing?

[Laughing]

Of course there are. Yes. But you owe me 96,000 dollars. Why should I go out and pay someone else when I've already paid you?

[after Slevin has just told him he'll take the job killing the Rabbi's son]

I knew you had sense.

Sense is something you have when you have a choice.

Sometimes, and sometimes it's when you know you don't.

[Showing a picture]

This was my son. Notice how I said was? That's because he's dead. Relegated to the past tense. Went from an is to a was before he had his breakfast.

Bummer.

There are three things one may not do to save a life including his own. He may not: idol-worship, commit adultery, or perform an act of premeditated murder. Killing you before you killed me would be...

Kosher?

[scathing noise]

Acceptable.
