Quotes9

  • Max: The issue's not whether you're paranoid, Lenny, I mean look at this shit, the issue is whether you're paranoid enough.
  • Max: You know how I know it's the end of the world? Everything's already been done. Every kind of music's been tried. Every kind of government's been tried, every fucking hairstyle, bubble gum flavors, you know, breakfast cereal. What are we going to do? How are we going to make another thousand years? I'm telling you, man, it's over. We used it all up.
  • Max Peltier: You put that thing on the 11 o'clock news and by midnight you'll have the biggest riot in history. They'll see the smoke from Canada.
  • Max: Cheer up. The world's about to end in ten minutes anyway.
  • Max: Well, I've lost my appetite.
  • [Throws food away]
  • Max: For about a year.
  • Lenny: I didn't know you were color blind, Max.
  • Max: It was the only way I could stand your ties.
  • Max: Only he doesn't know about me and Faith. So I say to myself, if I turn the job down, he just gets somebody else. And I lose Faith... to coin a phrase. So to buy time, I do the skank. I still gotta do something about Tran... I figure it's him or me... but I can't cap him without a chump to take the fall. And who better than his girlfriend's loser ex-boyfriend... a known criminal... who has been seen hassling them in public numerous times.
  • Lenny Nero: And who was, regrettably, also your best fucking friend.
  • Max: No plan is perfect, Lenny. Hey, cheer up. World's gonna end in ten minutes anyway.
  • Max Peltier: The issue isn't whether you're paranoid, but whether you're paranoid enough.
  • Max: He's still workin' the party... actin' smooth like nothin's nothin'.
