The Friends of Eddie Coyle

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
No, I don't care to give my name. Stop farting around and give me Foley.

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
Can you imagine being a kid like that. What is he, 24 or something. Greatest hockey player in the world. Number four - Bobby Orr. Geez, what a future he's got, uh?

Jackie Brown:
This life's hard man, but it's harder if you're stupid!

Jackie Brown:
And keep this mind. I've got more than five machine guns, and the rest are gonna be pointed at you.

Dave Foley:
The only one f***in' Eddie Coyle is Eddie Coyle.

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
I was thinkin' in terms of you maybe talkin' to the prosecutor up there, and havin' him drop a word to the judge how I been helpin' my Uncle like a bastard?

Dave Foley:
Well, I would. But then again you haven't been.

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
What? I gave you a couple of calls.

Dave Foley:
Yeah, you give me some real stuff, too. You tell me about a guy that's gonna get hit, 15 minutes later he gets hit. You tell me about some guys on a job, but you don't tell me till their coming out the door with the money. That's not helping Uncle, Eddie. You gotta put your whole soul into it.

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
I shoulda known better than to trust a cop. My own goddamn mother coulda told me that.

Dave Foley:
Everybody oughta listen to his mother.

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
One of the first things I learned is never to ask a man why he's in a hurry. All you got to know is I told the man that he could depend on me because you told me I could depend on you. Now one of us is gonna have a big fat problem. Another thing I learned. If anybody's gonna have a problem, you're gonna be the one.

Jackie Brown:
You finished?

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
No, I am not finished. Look, I'm gettin' old, you hear? I spent most of my life hanging around crummy joints with a buncha punks drinkin' the beer, eatin' the hash and the hot dogs and watchin' the other people go off to Florida while I'm sweatin' out how I'm gonna pay the plumber. I done time and I stood up but I can't take no more chances. Next time, it's gonna be me goin' to Florida.

Jackie Brown:
You can't trace these guns, I guarantee that.

Eddie 'Fingers' Coyle:
You better, or neither of us will be able to shake hands.
