Whitey Bulger:
[from trailer]

[at dinner]

Whitey Bulger:
What did you marinate this steak in? Because it's out of this world! You're killing me with it!

John Morris:
Now, now, it's a family secret.

Whitey Bulger:
Oh, come on! You got to tell me that! What's the secret? Come on, you can do it, come on, that is one of the best goddamn steaks I have ever had in my entire life. What's the family secret recipe?

John Morris:
It's ground garlic, with a bit of soy.

Whitey Bulger:
That's it?

John Morris:
Yeah, that's it.

Whitey Bulger:
[pause] I thought it was a family secret.

John Morris:
It's a recipe.

Whitey Bulger:
No, no. You said to me this is a family secret, and you gave it up to me, boom just like that. You spill the secret family recipe today, maybe you spill a little something about me tomorrow, hm?

John Morris:
I was just saying that...

Whitey Bulger:
You were just saying? "Just saying" gets people sent away. "Just saying" got me a nine-year stretch in Alcatraz, you understand? So, "just saying" can get you buried real quick.

[suddenly laughs]

Whitey Bulger:
Look at his face!

Whitey Bulger:
[from trailer] Hey, buddy. I need you to listen very carefully to what I'm saying because there are lessons again and again throughout your whole life. You gotta learn from these things, right? It's not what you do, it's when and where you do it, and who you do it to or with. If nobody sees it, it didn't happen.

Lindsey Cyr:
Jimmy, he's six. You really think that's the best thing to be telling you kid?

Whitey Bulger:
Yeah.

[from trailer]

Mrs. Cody:
Jimmy! When did you get out of Alcatraz?

Whitey Bulger:
Oh, uhh... That's nearly ten years ago.

Mrs. Cody:
Well, it's wonderful to have you back in the neighborhood, son.

Whitey Bulger:
[From Trailer] Take your shot but make it your best. 'Cause I get up, I eat ya.

Fred Wyshak:
How come no one has nailed Whitey Bulger? He seems to be involved in every crime in the city, and yet the Bureau keeps saying he's clean!

John Connolly:
Well, what's Bulger done?

Fred Wyshak:
What's he done? Everything!

[from trailer]

John Connolly:
Bulger's playing us, making a fool of the Bureau. We're in too deep, and he knows it! God help us all.

Whitey Bulger:
Morris... me and you gotta have a sit dowm about something... what the f*** did you marinate this steak in 'cause it's outta this world! You're killin' me with this.

John Morris:
Ah, ah, ah... that's a family secret!

Whitey Bulger:
[Jokingly] I gotta knife here. Ah, c'mon, you can do it. What's the secret family recipe? C'mon, what's the secret?

John Morris:
It's ground garlic and a little bit of soy.

Whitey Bulger:
That's it?

John Morris:
Yup.

Whitey Bulger:
I thought you said it was a family secret.

John Morris:
It's a recipe.

Whitey Bulger:
No... no. You said this was a family secret and you gave it to me *boom* just like f***in' that. You spill the secret family recipe today, maybe you f***in' spill a lil' somethin' about me tomorrow. Am I right in assuming that?

John Morris:
[Looking to Connolly] I...

Whitey Bulger:
Don't look to John... he can't f***in help you.

John Morris:
I was just sayin...

Whitey Bulger:
Oh you were just sayin'? Just sayin' get people sent to Allenwood. Just sayin' got me a nine year stretch in Levinworth and Alcatraz, do you understand? So... just sayin' can get you buried real f***in' quick. [laughs Maniacally] Look at his f***in' face! Hey! I'm just f***in' with you. It's a f***in' recipe! Couldn't give a sh*t! Tastes great, I'm f***in' with you.

John Connolly:
[laughing nervously] Yeah, well... you got me too. I'd like make a toast... [raises his glass]... to success.

John Morris:
To sucess...

Whitey Bulger:
[Clinging his cup against theirs] Just gettin' started.

DEA Agent Eric Olsen:
Now that you have been arrested in connection with your crimes with Whitey Bulger, what's your honest opinion of him?

Steve Flemmi:
Strictly criminal.

John Connolly:
Thank God for Whitey Bulger

Billy Bulger:
Hey Ma, did you hear Old Mother Burke died over on Baker's Street? No one found here for a couple of weeks.

Mom Bulger:
That's right. And when they broke down the door, the cats had devoured the best part of her.

Billy Bulger:
That's - that's beautiful, Ma.

Brian Halloran:
I'm a f***ing dead man!

Whitey Bulger:
You need to control. Because you know the game surprises you. And you bite your ass not know when, you know?

Lindsey Cyr:
[crying] I'll pull the plug myself, I will.

Whitey Bulger:
[looks up] What did you say? [tears form in his eyes]

Whitey Bulger:
What the f*** did you just say? My boy? You pull the plug on my boy?

Lindsey Cyr:
I can't have him like this, Jimmy.

Whitey Bulger:
How could you be so cold?

Lindsey Cyr:
Don't say that to me.

Whitey Bulger:
How could you be so cold?

Lindsey Cyr:
Don't you dare f***ing say that to me.

Whitey Bulger:
I could never, never. You're pathetic.

Lindsey Cyr:
You of all people in the f***ing world cannot say that to me.

Whitey Bulger:
Who the f*** are you?

Deborah Hussey:
This is the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me.

Whitey Bulger:
Aw, Debbie, you're breaking my f***in' heart.

John Connolly:
Like it or not, Marriane, you married a street kid. And the streets taught me that you give and you get loyalty from your friends. And loyalty means a lot to me.

John Connolly:
I'm not asking you to help me. I'm asking you to help your brother.

Billy Bulger:
That's the same thing now, isn't it?

Kevin Weeks:
In the beginning, Jim was a small time player. He really only mattered in Southie. Don't get me wrong, he was a tough motherf***er, but small time. And the next thing you know, he was a goddamn kingpin. You know why? Because the FBI let it happen.

John Connolly:
I've known him since forever!

Marianne Connolly:
And you certainly hold your boyhood heroes in high regard. 'Jimmy' this, 'Jimmy' that...

John Connolly:
He was very good to me when I was little, Marianne, that's all you need to know.

Marianne Connolly:
[sarcastically] How was he good to you, John? Did he take you trick-or-treating?

Officer Flynn:
You threatening me, Bulger?

Whitey Bulger:
The last thing I would do if I was planning to harm you is to warn you in advance, you dumb f***.

Officer Flynn:
You better watch yourself, Bulger.

Whitey Bulger:
You better f*** yourself, Flynn.

Whitey Bulger:
Just make him an offer for the company.

John Callahan:
I tried. Won't sell.

Whitey Bulger:
Would his widow sell?
