Max Zorin
[addressing businessmen aboard his Skyship 6000]
Gentlemen. For centuries alchemists tried to make gold from base metals. Today, we make microchips from silicon, which is common sand, but far better than gold. Now, for several years, we had a profitable partnership, you as manufacturers, while I acquired and passed on to you industrial information that made you competitive, successful. We are now on the unique position to form an international cartel to control not only production, but distribution of these microchips. There is one obstacle... [throws microchips onto the table, which splits up and out comes a model of a familiar city] Silicon Valley, near San Francisco.

Max Zorin
[the morning after Bond sleeps with May Day]
You slept well?
James Bond
A little restless but I got off eventually.
James Bond
[Zorin and his associates have captured James Bond]
My department knows I'm here. When I don't report, they'll retaliate.
Max Zorin
If you're the best they've got, they're more likely to try and cover up your embarrassing incompetence.
Bond
Don't count on it, Zorin.
Zorin
[laughs]
Ha ha, you amuse me, Mr. Bond.
Bond
It's not mutual.
GG General Gogol
Good morning, Comrade Zorin.
Zorin
General Gogol. This meeting is ill-advised.
G Gogol
A calculated risk. But necessary, since you refused to answer your control.
Zorin
Come to the point, General.
G Gogol
You disregard procedure. You did not request approval before eliminating 007. Reprisals might jeopardize ongoing operations.
Zorin
You jeopardized mine!! Letting the British penetrate the Siberian research center.
G Gogol
That was regrettable. Your racing activities attract unnecessary attention, but more disturbing are your unauthorized commercial ventures, and we cannot tolerate that.
Zorin
The issue is irrelevant. I've made new associations. I no longer consider myself a KGB agent.
K Klotkoff
We trained you. Financed you. Huh. What would you be without us? A biological experiment? [Zorin scoffs and chuckles] A physiological freak? [Zorin coldly glares at him]
G Gogol
[May Day lifts Klotkoff off the ground and over her head while Jenny Flex arrives and points a gun at the rest of General Gogol's men] [to his own men]
Enough of this!! Control yourselves!! [May Day throws Klotkoff down to the ground while General Gogol confronts Zorin] You will come back to us, Comrade. No one ever leaves the KGB.
MD May Day
[In Zorin's dirigible looking at San Francisco]
Wow! What a view...
Max Zorin
...to a kill!
CG Chief Geologist WG Howe
[Zorin and May Day bring Bond and Stacey Sutton to Chief Geologist Howe's office, where Howe is asked to call the police on a break-in.]
What have they done?
Max Zorin
You discharged her, so she and her accomplice came here to kill you. Then they set fire to the office, to conceal the crime but they were trapped in the elevator [switches pistols with May Day] and perished in the flames.
H Howe
But that means I would have to be...
Zorin
Dead! [shoots him; Jenny Flex appears at a nearby door. to Bond] That's rather neat, don't you think?
James Bond
Brilliant. I'm almost speechless with admiration.
Zorin
Intuitive improvisation is the secret of genius.
Bond
Herr Doktor Mortner would be proud of his creation.
[Zorin signals Flex to start dousing gasoline on Howe's office]
S Scarpine
[at the mine]
It's time to flood the fault. [Zorin gets a remote detonator from Scarpine's hard case]
BC Bob Conley
But May Day and my men!
Zorin
Yes. A convenient coincidence.
C Conley
Mr. Zorin, those men are LOYAL to you! [Scarpine knocks him out; Conley falls to the bottom of the cavern]
