Quentin Glass quotes from The Punisher (2004)

Quentin Glass

"You're a small piece of shit and I don't want the karma of your death on my conscience."

Quentin Glass

"We called New York, we called Las Vegas, we called Europe and Hong Kong, we even got the Sicilians in it for old times' sake. With what you're paying, Howard, we'll know everything there is to know about Otto Krieg in twenty-four hours."

Quentin Glass

"In forty-eight hours, Castle is a memory. A pro from Memphis-the best."

Quentin Glass

"Actually, Howard, we don't have more guns. Now, it's my duty..."

Quentin Glass

"Okay, why don't you and I see if we can discover the true nature of pain?"

Quentin Glass

With all due respect, we don't have more guns. It's my duty to inform you...

Quentin Glass

You sell homegrown pot by the ounce, Micky, not by the barrel. You sell badly-forged fake passports to Haitians. So what inspired you to become the Mr. Universe of international arms dealers? Micky, you should apologize for the death of Mr. Saint's youngest son.

Okay, I know how it looks, but Bobby, he buys pot from me. And, and when he found out what I was doing, he insisted on coming in. He put up half the cash. He came of his own free will! (One of the hoodlums kicks him.) If you're gonna kill me, will you leave my face alone - for my mother?

Quentin

We just made your bail. Now, if I'd wanted to kill you I would have left you in jail, where we have friends, and in a way I can only describe as deeply pornographic, you would have been killed. But you're a small piece of shit, and I don't want the Karma of your death on my conscience. But on the other hand, maybe I don't believe in karma. So, guys–

No, no, no! I'll tell you anything you wanna know!

Quentin

Then this'll be quick. I want to know one thing only: who brokered the deal?

His name's Otto Krieg. And if it's any comfort to Mr. Saint, he's dead too.
Howard Saint, (entering): Well, it's not. It's actually no comfort at all. But what might be comforting to me is watching the slow death of the man who was supposed to be taking care of my son and making sure he did not get into trouble.

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.

Wait. (She lifts her veil.) His family. His whole family.

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.

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?

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. No, I dropped out.

Quentin

You dropped out? You're not doing drugs, are you?

Dave

Not right now...

Quentin

And what are you doing with all this stuff? What is that?

Dave

Piercings.

Quentin

Piercings. Did it hurt when you did that?

Dave

Not really.

Quentin

You like that, when it hurt a little bit?

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.

Dave

Yeah.
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

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?

Need help with some underpants, sir?

Quentin Glass

Go **** yourself.
