Asphalt Jungle

Doc Riedenschneider:
Experience has taught me never to trust a policeman. Just when you think one's all right, he turns legit.

May Emmerich:
Oh Lon, when I think of all those awful people you come in contact with - downright criminals - I get scared.

Alonzo D. Emmerich:
Oh, there's nothing so different about them. After all, crime is only... a left-handed form of human endeavor.

Angela Phinlay:
Haven't you bothered me enough, you big banana-head?

Dr. Swanson:
He hasn't got enough blood left in him to keep a chicken alive.

Police Commissioner Hardy:
People are being cheated, robbed, murdered, raped. And that goes on 24 hours a day, every day in the year. And that's not exceptional, that's usual. It's the same in every city in the modern world. But suppose we had no police force, good or bad. Suppose we had... just silence. Nobody to listen, nobody to answer. The battle's finished. The jungle wins. The predatory beasts take over.

Cobby:
Here's to the drink habit. It's the only one I got that don't get me into trouble.

Doc Riedenschneider:
One way or another, we all work for our vice.

Dix Handley:
Why don't you quit cryin' and get me some bourbon?
