Quotes

Apportez-moi la tête d'Alfredo Garcia

Bennie: There ain't nothing sacred about a hole in the ground or the man that's in it. Or you. Or me.

Bennie: [as he keeps shooting a man he has already killed] Why? Because it feels so goddamn good!

Bennie: Listen. The church cuts off the feet, fingers, any other goddamn thing from the saints, don't they? Well, what the hell? Alfredo's our saint. He's the saint of our money, and I'm gonna borrow a piece of him.

El Jefe: I will pay one million dollars. Bring me the head of Alfredo Garcia!

Bennie: Nobody loses all the time.

Bennie: You guys are definitely on my shit list!

Bennie: I've been no place I wanna go back to, that's for damn sure.

Bennie: [after a shootout] Am I still gonna get paid?
Sappensly: [pulling out a gun] Yeah, you'll get paid.

Bennie: I can smell shit 100 miles away... sometimes closer.

Bennie: Hell, I wasn't trying to hit them, you know
Elita: I know you weren't.
Bennie: I used to shoot a lot of pistols when I was in the army.
Elita: You're a nice gringo. You didn't have a thing to do in the army anyways.
Bennie: You'd be surprised, honey.

El Jefe: Please, drink with me. I am a very happy man.
Bennie: Nah, I've got nothing to celebrate.

Bennie: Come on, Al. We're going home.

Elita: I've been down this road before, and you don't know the way.

Bennie: I'm gonna nail you, somewhere I'm gonna nail you. You're up there. You're up there you son of a... I'm gonna find you. Damn your eyes! Lemme see that big station wagon.

Bennie: I've killed people... and worse, a whole lot worse.

Bennie: Don't worry, if he's alive I'll find him.
Sappensly: Alive isn't our problem.
Bennie: Well, how about dead or alive? How about that?
Quill: Dead. Just dead.

Bennie: Don't you look at me with your Goddamn fucking eyes!

Bennie: [i'll have] a double bourbon with a champagne back, none of your tijano bullshit, and fuck off.

Bennie: You wanna stay here with him?

El Jefe: Quien es el padre? Who is the father?

Bennie: Gimmie a double bourbon and a champagne back and none of your tejano bullshit. Now shove off.
