1st Stansfield man: shoots the chinamen dead in two seconds
Malky: Easy man I am a cop
1st Stansfield man: Then turns around and says something to Malky like
Léon: No women, no kids. »
- Fatman: Somebody's coming up. Somebody serious. »
- Léon: And stop saying "okay" all the time. Okay?
Mathilda: Okay.
Léon: Good. »
- Léon: Ey. What about the ring trick. You know that one? »
- Léon: I took a hit. I need a hand now. I know she's young, but she learns fast. Kids need to be shaped into something right?
Tony: Yeah, I know. I taught you that. But ain't there an age limit?
Léon: She's 18.
Tony: Oh, really? »
- Léon: Revenge is not good. Once you're done. Believe me. »
- Léon: Tell me... The money I earn and you keep for me...
Tony: Do you need money?
Léon: No... Just to know... Because it's a long time I work... And I never did anything with my money... I should do something.
Tony: It's true, you're right... Did you meet a woman? »
- Léon: The rifle is the first weapon you learn how to use, because it lets you keep your distance from the client. The closer you get to being a pro, the closer you can get to the client. The knife, for example, is the last thing you learn. »
- Léon: You still have your gun, so use it. Just do me a favor, don't shoot it out the window. »
- Malky: Hey Stan, Stan! What are doing? He's dead!
Stansfield: But he ruined my suit. »
- Mathilda's Father: Shut the goddamn door! »
- Mathilda: Can we try with real bullets now? »
- Mathilda: Do you "clean" anyone?
Léon: No women, no kids, that's the rules.
Mathilda: How much would it cost to hire someone to get those dirtbags who killed my brother?
Léon: Five grand a head.
Mathilda: Wow. How about this: I work for you; in exchange, you teach me how to clean. Hmmm? What do you think? I'll clean your place, I'll do the shopping, I'll even wash your clothes. Is it a deal? »
- Mathilda: He's not my father. He's my lover. »
- Mathilda: How are we getting out of here now?
Léon: Leave it to me. We're checking out. »
- Mathilda: I am already grown up, I just get older. »
- Mathilda: I am writing here the name of a girl in the class who makes me sick. If things get hot, she'll take the heat. »
- Mathilda: I don't give a shit about sleeping, Leon. I want love, or death. That's it. »
- Mathilda: I don't wanna lose you, Leon."
Léon: You're not going to lose me. You've given me a taste for life. I wanna be happy. Sleep in a bed, have roots. And you'll never be alone again, Mathilda. Please, go now, baby, go. Calm down, go now, go. »
- Mathilda: I've decided what to do with my life. I wanna be a cleaner.
Léon: You wanna be a cleaner?
Léon: Here, take it. It's a goodbye gift. Go clean. But not with me. I work alone, understand? Alone.
Mathilda: Bonnie and Clyde didn't work alone. Thelma and Louise didn't work alone. And they were the best. »
- Mathilda: Is life always this hard, or is it just when you're a kid?
Léon: Always like this. »
- Mathilda: Leon, I think I'm falling in love with you. It's the first time for me, you know?
Léon: How do you know it's love if you've never been in love before?
Mathilda: 'Cause I feel it.
Léon: Where?
Mathilda: In my stomach. It's all warm. I always had a knot there and now... it's gone.
Léon: Mathilda, I'm glad you don't have a stomach ache any more. I don't think it means anything. »
- Mathilda: There's no doorbell.
Léon: So knock on the door. »
- Mathilda: You killed my brother.
Stansfield: I'm sorry. And you want to join him?
Mathilda: No.
Stansfield: It's always the same thing. It's when you start to become really afraid of death that you learn to appreciate life. Do you like life, sweetheart?
Mathilda: Yes.
Stansfield: That's good, because I take no pleasure in taking life if it's from a person who doesn't care about it. »
- Norman Stansfield: Bring me everyone.
Norman Stansfield: EVERYONE. »
- Orphanage Headmistress: Now tell me what happened to you.
Mathilda: OK. My family they got shot down by D.E.A. officers because of a drug problem. I left with the greatest guy on earth. He was a hitman, the best in town, but he died this morning. And if you don't help me, I'll be dead by tonight. »
- Stansfield: Death is... whimsical... today. »
- Stansfield: I haven't got time for this Mickey Mouse bullshit. »
- Stansfield: I like these calm little moments before the storm. It reminds me of Beethoven. Can you hear it? It's like when you put your head to the grass and you can hear the growin' and you can hear the insects. Do you like Beethoven?
Malky: I couldn't really say. »
- Stansfield: I told ya. »
- Stansfield: Tony, you've killed for us in the past, and we've always been satisfied, which is why it's very hard for me to come down here today. One of my men was killed today in your territory, and the chinks tell me the killer was of the... Italian pursuasion. Now, wait, there's more. You'll love this. Not two hours later, a little twelve-year-old girl comes to my building, armed to the teeth with the sole intention of sending me straight to the morgue. And guess who comes to get her? The very same Italian hit man. »
- Stansfield: What filthy piece of shit did I do now? »
- Stansfield: You don't like Beethoven. You don't know what you're missing. Overtures like that get my... juices flowing. So powerful. But after his openings, to be honest, he does tend to get a little fucking boring. That's why I stopped!
Stansfield: Toss the apartment. »
- Stansfield: You're a Mozart fan. I love him too. I looooove Mozart! He was Austrian you know? But for this kind of work,
Stansfield: he's a little bit light. So I tend to go for the heavier guys. Check out Brahms. He's good too. »
- Tony: Check it. Make sure it's the right thing.
Léon: I trust you.
Tony: One thing has nothin' to do with the other - remember that Léon.
Léon: I will. »
