Pete: The preacher said he absolved us. Everett: For him. Not for the law. I'm surprised at you Pete. I gave you credit for more brains than Delmar. Delmar: But there was witnesses that seen us redeemed. Everett: That's not the issue Delmar. Even if it did put you square with the Lord, the state of Mississippi's a little more hardnosed. Delmar: You should'a joined us Everett. It couldn't have hurt none. Pete: Hell, at least it would'a washed away the stink of that pomade. Everett: Join you two ignorant fools in a ridiculous superstition... Thank ya anyway. And I like the smell of my hair treatment. The pleasin' odor's half the point. [laughs] Baptism. You two are just dumber than a bag of hammers. Well, I guess you're just my cross to bear. – O Brother, Where Art Thou? Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Everett: How you doin', son? My name's Everett. These two soggy sons of bitches are Pete and Delmar.

Tommy Johnson. Delmar: How you doin', Tommy? Say, I haven't seen a house out here for miles. What are you doing out in the middle of nowhere? Tommy Johnson: Well, I had to be up at that there crossroads last midnight, to sell my soul to the devil. Everett: Well, ain't it a small world, spiritually speaking. Pete and Delmar just been baptized and saved. I guess I'm the only one that remains unaffiliated. Delmar: This ain't no laughing matter, Everett. Everett: What'd the devil give you for your soul, Tommy? Tommy Johnson: Well, he taught me to play this here guitar real good. Delmar: Oh, son. For that, you traded your everlasting soul? Tommy Johnson: [shrugs] Well, I wasn't usin' it. Pete: I've always wondered, what's the devil look like? Everett: Well, of course there are all manner of lesser imps and demons, Pete, but the great Satan hisself is red and scaly with a bifurcated tail, and he carries a hay fork. Tommy Johnson: Oh, no. No, sir. He's white, as white as you folks, with empty eyes and a big hollow voice. He loves to travel around with a mean old hound. That's right. Pete: And he told you to go to Tishomingo? Tommy Johnson: Well, no, sir, that was my idea. I heard there's a man down there. He pays folks money to sing into his can. They say he pays extra if you play real good. Everett: Tishomingo, huh? How much he pay? – O Brother, Where Art Thou? Movie Quote	added 5 years ago

What are you gonna do with your share of that dough?

You ain't no kind of man if you ain't got land. Pete: What about you, Everett? What'd you have in mind when you stole it in the first place? Everett: [clears throat] I didn't have no plan. Pete: Well, that hardly sounds like you. – O Brother, Where Art Thou? Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Pete: Well, hell, it ain't square one! Ain't no one gonna pick up three filthy, unshaved hitch-hikers. And one of them, a know-it-all that can't keep his trap shut. Everett: Pete, the personal rancor reflected in that remark I don't intend to dignify with comment. But I would like to address your attitude of hopeless negativism. Consider the lilies of the goddamn field... or hell, take a look at Delmar here as your paradigm of hope! Delmar: Yeah! Look at me. Everett: Now you may call it an unreasoning optimism. You may call it obtuse. But the plain and simple fact is that we've got close to three days before they...

You flat-footed, lame-brain, soft-ass sons of bitches! NO ONE CAN CATCH ME! I'M GEORGE NELSON!!! I'm bigger than any John, live or limp! I'm 10.5 feet tall, and ain't yet fully grown! [sees a herd of cows in a field] Cows! I hate cows worse than coppers! [turns his gun on the cows and starts shooting at them] Delmar: Oh, George! Not the livestock!

And remember, Jesus saves, but George Nelson withdraws! [laughs] Go fix the auto voiture, Pete. Woman: [whispers to the man next to her] Is that Babyface Nelson? George Nelson: Who said that? What ignorant, lowdown, slanderizin' SON OF A BITCH SAID THAT??!! [approaches the woman] My name is GEORGE NELSON! GET ME?! [the woman nods in fear] Delmar: She didn't mean nothing by it, George. George Nelson: GEORGE NELSON! NOT "BABYFACE"!!! You remember! And you tell your friends! I'm George Nelson! Born to raise hell!

Big Dan Teague: [approaches Everett and Delmar's table] I don't believe I've seen you boys around here before. Allow me to introduce myself. Name of Daniel Teague. Known in these precincts as Big Dan Teague. Or, to those who are pressed for time, Big Dan, tout court! Everett: How you doin', Big Dan? My name is Ulysses Everett McGill. This is my associate, Delmar O'Donnell. I detect like me, you're endowed with the gift of gab. Big Dan Teague: I flatter myself that such is the case. In my line of work it's plumb necessary. The one thing you don't want... is air in the conversation. Everett: Once again, we find ourselves in agreement. What kind of work do you do, Big Dan? Big Dan Teague: Sales, Mr. McGill, sales! And what do I sell? The Truth! Every blessed word of it, from Genesee on down to Revelations. That's right, the word of God, which let me tell you there is damn good money in during these times of woe and want. People are lookin' for answers, and Big Dan sells the only book that's got 'em! And what do you do, you and your tongue-tied friend? Delmar: We, uh... Everett: Uh, we're adventurers, sir, currently pursuing a certain opportunity, but we're open to others as well. Big Dan Teague: I like your style, young man. So I'm gonna propose you a proposition: You cover my bill so I don't have to run back upstairs, get your waitress to wrap your dinner picnic-style, and we shall retire to more private environs, where I will tell you how there are vast amounts of money to be made in the service of God Almighty. Everett: Well, why not? If nothing else, I could use some civilized conversation. Big Dan Teague: Don't forget your shoebox, friend. – O Brother, Where Art Thou? Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
[Big Dan, Everett, and Delmar are having a picnic lunch] Big Dan Teague: Thank you, boys, for throwin' in that fricassee. I'm a man of large appetites. Even with lunch under my belt, I was feeling a mite peckish. Everett: It's our pleasure, Big Dan. Big Dan Teague: Thank you as well for the conversational hiatus. I generally refrain from speech during gustation. There are those who attempt both at the same time. I find it coarse and vulgar. Where were we? Delmar: Makin' money in the Lord's service. Big Dan Teague: You don't say much friend, but when you do, it's to the point and I salute you for it. Yes, Bible sales. Now, the trade is not a complicated one. There are but two things to learn. One: being where to find a wholesaler. The word of God in bulk, as it were. Two: how to recognize your customer. Who are you dealing with? It's an exercise in psychology, so to speak. And it is that which I propose to give you a lesson in right now. [snaps a branch off a nearby tree] Everett: Well, I like to think I'm an astute observer of the human scene, too, Big Dan. Big Dan Teague: No doubt, brother. I figured as much back at the restaurant. That's why I invited you all out here for this advanced tutorial.

[pulls a wad of money out of Everett's pocket; Delmar jumps onto Big Dan, but Big Dan swings him around and throws him to the ground] ...and whatever ya got in the hole. [opens the shoebox and is dismayed to see the toad inside] What the...? There ain't nothin' but a damn toad. Delmar: No, you don't understand. That's Pete. [Big Dan takes the toad out of the shoebox] Pete... Big Dan Teague: You know these things give ya warts? [squashes the toad in his hand, then throws it against the tree] End of lesson. So long, boys. [chuckles mockingly] See ya in the funny papers. Y'all seen the end of Big Dan Teague.

Everett: Deceitful, two-faced she-woman. Never trust a female, Delmar, remember that one simple precept and your time with me will not have been ill spent. Delmar: OK, Everett. Everett: Hit by a train! Truth means nothing to a woman, Delmar. Triumph 'a the subjective. You ever been with a woman? Delmar: Well, I... I... I gotta get the family farm back before I can start thinking about that. Everett: That's right, if then. Believe me Delmar, woman is the most fiendish instrument of torture ever devised to bedevil the days of man. Delmar: Everett, I never figured you for a paterfamilias. Everett: Oh yes, I have spread my seed. – O Brother, Where Art Thou? Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Pappy: It sounded t'me like he harbored some kinda hateful grudge against the Soggy Bottom Boys, on account of their rough and rowdy past. [boos] Pappy: Sounds like Homer Stokes is the kind of fella who wants to cast the first stone. Well, I'm with you folks. I'm a forgive 'n' forget Christian, and I say, if their rambunctiousness, and misdemeanorin' is behind them... [turns away from the mike, towards Everett] It is, ain't it, boys? Everett: Uh, yes sir, it is. Pappy: Well, then I say, by the power vested in me, these boys is hereby pardoned! And furthermore, in the second Pappy O'Daniel administration, why, these boys is gonna be my brain trust! Delmar: What's that mean, Everett? Everett: Well, Delmar, you, me, Pete, and Tommy are gonna be the power behind the throne, so to speak. Delmar: Oh, okay. Pappy: So without further ado, and by way of endorsin' my candidacy, the Soggy Bottom Boys is gonna lead us all in a chorus of "You Are My Sunshine." [Applause. Pappy turns away from the mike, towards Everett] Pappy: Ain't you, boys? Everett: Governor, it's one of our favorites. Pappy: Son... you're gonna go far. – O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Everett: Well, at least you boys get to see the ancestral manse; the home where I spent so many happy days in the bosom of my family--a refugim, if you will--with a mighty oak tree out front and a happy little tire swing on it. [The boys arrive at Everett's old cabin, but they see no tire swing on the tree] Delmar: Where's the happy little tire swing? [the boys are soon confronted by Sheriff Cooley and his men] Sheriff Cooley: [steps out of the cabin with his dog] End of the road, boys. Everett: Wait a minute, now... Sheriff Cooley: It's had its twists and turns. Now, it deposits you here. Everett: No, wait a minute! Sheriff Cooley: You have eluded fate, and you have eluded me for the last time. [to his men] Tie their hands, boys. Everett: You can't do this now! [Cooley's men begin tying Everett, Pete, and Delmar's hands behind their backs and holding Tommy at gunpoint] Sheriff Cooley: Didn't know you'd be bringin' a friend. He'll just have to wait his turn, share one of your graves. Everett: You can't do this! We just got pardoned by the governor hisself! Delmar: It went out on the radio! Sheriff Cooley: Is that right? Well, we ain't got a radio. Pete: God have mercy. – O Brother, Where Art Thou? Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
[Everett and Penny are walking through town with their daughters in tow] Everett: "All's well that ends well," some poet said. Penny: That's right, honey. Everett: Don't mind telling you I'm awful pleased... My adventuring days have come to an end. Penny: That's good, honey. Everett: You were right about that ring, too. Any other wedding band wouldn't do. This here was fore-ordained. Fate was a-smilin' on me, and... Penny: That's not my ring. Everett: What? Penny: That's not my ring. Everett: Not your ring? Penny: That's one of Aunt Herlene's. Everett: But you said it was in the roll-top desk. Penny: I said I thought it was in the roll-top desk. Everett: No, you said... Penny: Or under the mattress. Or maybe in my chifforobe. I don't know. Everett: Well, I'm sorry, honey. Penny: But we need that ring. Everett: Well, that ring is at the bottom of a pretty durn big lake. Penny: Uh-uh. Everett: A 9,000-hectare lake. Penny: I don't care if it was 90,000. That lake was not my doing. Everett: Of course not, honey... Penny: I counted to three, honey. Everett: No, wait, honey.

Rusty: You'd need at least a dozen guys doing a combination of cons. Danny: Like what, do you think? Rusty: Off the top of my head, I'd say you're looking at a Boesky, a Jim Brown, a Miss Daisy, two Jethros and a Leon Spinks, not to mention the biggest Ella Fitzgerald, ever. Where do you think you’re going to get the money to back this? Danny: We hit these three casinos, we get our bankroll. Benedict's got a long list of enemies. Rusty: Enemies with loose cash and nothing to lose? [pauses, then nods] Ah...Reuben. Danny: Reuben. – Ocean's Eleven Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Reuben: You're out of you're goddamn minds!...Are you listening to me? You're, both of you nuts! I know more about casino security than any man alive. I invented it. And it cannot be beaten. They got cameras, they got watchers, they got locks, they got timers, they got vaults. They got enough armed personnel to occupy Paris!...Okay, bad example. Danny: It's never been tried. Reuben: Ho-ho... "It's never been tried." It's been tried. A few guys even came close. You know the three most successful robberies in the history of Vegas? [Flashback] Reuben: [v.o.] Number three, the bronze medal. Pencil neck grabs a lock box at the Horseshoe... [The thief is almost instantly tackled.] Reuben: [v.o.] He got two steps closer to the door than any living soul before him. [in the present] Reuben: Second most successful robbery... [another flashback] Reuben: [v.o.] The Flamingo in '71. This guy actually tasted fresh oxygen before they grabbed him. [The thief gets within a few feet of the door before getting smashed in the face with a security guard's baton.] Reuben: [v.o.] Of course, he was breathing out of a hose for the next three weeks. Goddamn hippie. [in the present] Reuben: And the closest any man has ever come to robbing a Las Vegas Casino... [another flashback] Reuben: [v.o.] Was outside of Caesar's in '87. He came... he grabbed... [Three security guards shoot the thief in the back.] Reuben: [v.o.] They conquered. [in the present] Reuben: But what am I saying? You guys are pros. The best. I'm sure you can make it out of the casino. Of course, lest we forget, once you're out the front door, YOU"RE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FUCKING DESERT! Rusty: You're right. [Looks at Danny] He's right. Danny: Reuben, you're right. Our eyes were bigger than our stomachs. Rusty: That's exactly what it is, pure ego. Reuben: Yeah, yeah, yeah, blah, blah, blah. Rusty: Thank you. Danny: For lunch. Rusty: The Nicoise was delicious. Danny: Sorry we bothered you. Reuben: [shaking hands] Look, we all go way back, and I owe you from the thing with the guy in the place, and I'll never forget it. Danny: That was our pleasure. Rusty: I had never been to Belize. Reuben: [as they are leaving] Give Dominic your addresses. I got some remained furniture I want to send you. Look, just out of curiosity, which casinos did you geniuses pick to rob? Rusty: The Bellagio, The Mirage.... Danny: The Bellagio, The Mirage and the MGM Grand. Reuben: [drops his fork] Those are Terry Benedict's casinos. Rusty: Is that right? Danny: That's right. Reuben: You guys... what do you got against Terry Benedict? Danny: What do you have against him, that's the question. Reuben: He torpedoed my casino, muscled me out. Now he's gonna blow it up next month to make way for some gaudy monstrosity! Don't think I don't see what you're doing. Rusty: What are we doing, Reuben? Reuben: You're gonna steal from Terry Benedict, you'd better goddamn KNOW. This sorta thing used to be civilized, you'd hit a guy, he'd whack you, done. But with Benedict... at the end of this, he'd BETTER not know you're involved, not know your names or think you're dead because he'll kill ya, and then he'll go to work on ya.

[Scene cuts to Saul in Florida retired, placing a bet at the Dog races] Saul: I saw you at the paddock before the second race, outside the men's room when I placed my bet. I saw you before you even got up this morning. Rusty: How you been, Saul? Saul: Never better. Rusty: What's with the Orange? Saul: My doctor says I need vitamins. Rusty: So why don't you take vitamins? Saul: You come here to give me a physical? Rusty: Box seats. Come on. [Conversation continues in Box Seat] Saul: So you gonna tell me?

Danny: [holds up a black wallet] Hello Linus. Whose is this? Linus: Who are you? Danny: A friend of Bobby Caldwell's.

Linus: You're pretty trusting pretty fast. Danny: Well Bobby has a lot of faith in you. Linus: Fathers are like that. [pauses, Danny is genuinely surprised] Oh he didn't tell you? He didn't want me trading on his name. Danny: You do this job and he'll be trading on yours...You don't, we'll find somebody else who won't be quite as good and you can go back to feeling up stockbrokers.

Danny: Gentlemen: the 3000 block of Las Vegas Boulevard. Otherwise known as the Bellagio, the Mirage and the M.G.M. Grand. Together, they're the three most profitable casinos in Las Vegas.....Livingston. [Livingston brings up Casino blueprints] This is the vault at the Bellagio. Located below the Strip, beneath two hundred feet of solid earth. It safeguards every dime that comes through each of the three casinos above it. [pause] And we're going to rob it. Linus: Smash-and-grab job, huh? Rusty: Slightly more complicated than that. Linus: Well, yeah. Danny: This is courtesy of Frank Catton, new Black Jack dealer at the Bellagio. Okay. Bad news first. This place houses a security system which rivals most nuclear missile silos. First: we have to get within the casino cages. Which anybody will tell ya it takes more than a smile. Next: through these doors, each of which requires a different six-digit code changed every twelve hours. Past those lies the elevator, and this is where it gets tricky: the elevator won't move without authorized fingerprint identification... Rusty: Which we can't fake. Danny: And vocal confirmations from both the security system within the Bellagio and the vault below. Rusty: Which we won't get. Danny: Furthermore, the elevator shaft is rigged with motion detectors. Rusty: Meaning if we were to manually override the lift, the shaft's exit would lock down automatically and we'd be trapped. Danny: Now once we get down the shaft, though, then it's a piece of cake: just two more guards with Uzis and the most elaborate vault door ever conceived by man. Any questions? [Yen speaks in Mandarin, basically asking "What about tunneling into the vaults?"] Rusty: No. Tunneling is out. There are sensors monitoring the ground a hundred yards in every direction. If a groundhog were to nest there, they'd know about it. Anyone else? Turk: You said something about good news? Danny: [smiling] The Nevada Gaming Commission stipulates that a casino must hold in reserve enough cash to cover every chip at play on its floor. That means on a week day, by law, it has to carry anywhere between sixty and seventy million dollars in cash and coin. On a weekend, between eighty and ninety million. On a fight night, like the one two weeks from tonight, the night we're going to rob it, at least a hundred and fifty million. Without breaking a sweat. Now there are eleven of us. Each with an equal share. You do the math. [Virgil whistles] Rusty: Exactly. Saul: I have a question: Say we get into the cage, and through the security doors there and down the elevator we can't move, and past the guards with the guns, and into the vault we can't open... Rusty: Without being seen by the cameras. Danny: Oh yeah, sorry, I forgot to mention that. Saul: Yeah well, say we do all that... uh... we're just supposed to walk out of there with a hundred and fifty million dollars in cash on us, without getting stopped? [everyone looks at Danny] Danny: Yeah. Saul: Oh...Okay. [takes a pill to calm his nerves] – Ocean's Eleven Movie Quote	added 5 years ago
Linus: I'll tell you: you guys really can pick em. This guy is as smart as he is ruthless. The last guy they caught cheating in here, he not only sent him up for ten years, but he had the bank seize his house and then he bankrupted his...

Linus: You suicidal? Rusty: Only in the morning....Now what? Linus: Here comes the girl. She comes down after him if they're in a snit. Rusty: Where does she come from? Linus: The museum up there. She's a curator...oh...here she is...This is the best part of my day.

Rusty: Tell me this is not about her, or I am walking. I am walking off this job right now. Danny: Who? Rusty: Tess. Terry Benedict. Tell me this is not about screwing the guy who's screwing your wife. Danny: Ex-wife. Rusty: Tell me. Danny: It's not about that. [pause] It's not entirely about that. [Rusty turns away, furious] Russ, do you remember what we said back when we first got into this business. We said we were gonna play the game... Both: Like we had nothing to lose. Danny: Well, I lost something... I lost someone. That's why I'm here. [long pause] Rusty: Okay, here's the problem - now we're stealing two things. And when push comes to shove, and you can't have both, which are you gonna choose? And remember - Tess does not split eleven ways. Danny: Well, if everything goes according to plan, I won't be the one who will have to make that decision...[Pause] So, how did she look? Rusty: She looked good.

Tess: You're 30 seconds late. I was about to send out a search... [Looks shocked to see Danny] Danny: Hello Tess. Tess: What are you doing here? Danny: I'm out. Tess: You’re out? Danny: Of prison. You remember the day that I went for cigarettes and didn't come back; you must've noticed. Tess: I don't smoke. Don't sit. Danny: Now, they tell me I paid my debt to society.

Danny: And I always confuse Monet and Manet, now which one married his mistress? Tess: Monet. Danny: Right, and then Manet had syphilis. Tess: They also painted occasionally. Danny: [Smiles at Tess] Alright, I'll make this quick. I came here for you. I want to get on with my life. I want you with me. Tess: You're a thief and a liar. Danny: I only lied about being a thief. I don't do that anymore. Tess: Steal. Danny: Lie. Tess: I'm with someone who doesn't have to make that kind of distinction. Danny: No, he's very clear on both. Tess: You know what your problem is?
