![]() Robert De Niro Quotation"The talent is in the choices." "It's important not to indicate. People don't try to show their feelings, they try to hide them." "I don't like to watch my own movies - I fall asleep in my own movies." "Don't talk it (shooting a scene) away, do it!" "Some people say that drama is easy, and comedy is hard. Not true. I've been making comedies the last couple years, and it's nice. When you make a drama, you spend all day beating a guy to death with a hammer, or what have you. Or, you have to take a bite out of somebody's face. On the other hand, with a comedy, you yell at Billy Crystal for an hour, and you go home." "I think Hollywood has a class system. The actors are like the inmates, but the truth is they're running the asylum. You've got to look at the whole studio structure. There's these guys. We call them suits. They have the power to okay a film. They're like your parents, going, 'We have the money.' But at the same time they say to us actors, 'We love you. We can't do without you.' You know, I've been around a long time. I've seen the suits run the asylum. I think I can do it as good or even better. Let me try it. That's why I have TriBeCa." --Chicago Sun-Times, January 8, 1998 I go to Paris, I go to London, I go to Rome, and I always say, "There's no place like New York. It's the most exciting city in the world now. That's the way it is. That's it." "I've never been one of those actors who has touted myself as a fascinating human being. I had to decide early on wether I was to be an actor or a personality." Movie Title: The Deer Hunter (1978) as Michael: Michael : Stanley, see this? This is this. This ain't something else. This is this. From now on, you're on your own. Nick : I don't think about that much with one shot anymore, Mike. Michael : You have to think about one shot. One shot is what it's all about. A deer's gotta be taken with one shot. Stan : How does it feel to be shot? Michael : Don't hurt. That's what you wanna know. And how it's been, doing OK. Stan : Yeah, same thing. Nothing's changed. I'm getting more ass than a toilet seat and Axel here, he's getting better than ever. Michael : You wanna play fucking games, I'll give you a game. Michael : I'll tell ya one thing, if I find out my life had to end up being in the mountains, it'd be alright, but it has to be in your mind. Nick : What? One shot? Michael : Two is pussy. Michael : A deer has to be taken with one shot. I try to tell people that but they don't listen. Michael : I'll tell you, Nick. You're the only guy I go hunting with, you know. I like a guy with quick moves and speed. I ain't gonna hunt with no assholes. Michael : Every time he comes up, he's got no knife, he's got no jacket, he's got no pants, he's got no boots. All he's got is that stupid gun he carries around like John Wayne. Michael : You know what those are? Those are sun dogs... It means a blessing on the hunter sent by the Great Wolf to his children... It's an old Indian thing. Axel : You get a deer? Michael : Naa man Axel : C'maaan! You didn't get a DEE-E-EAH? Michael : [after he sights the deer but points the rifle upward and fires... the deer just looks... ] OK? O-K?

And let me tell you something, I do not appreciate it when someone wakes me up and drags me out of my hotel room in the middle of the night.

Boss Paul Vitti : Don't that prove I'm motivated? Dr. Ben Sobel : You know, you can take a pill for that. Boss Paul Vitti : Nah, you start with the pills, the next thing you know you're putting in hydraulics. A hard-on should be achieved legitimately or it shouldn't be achieved at all. Dr. Ben Sobel : Hmm, I think Mark Twain said that, didn't he? Dr. Ben Sobel : They threw me in the shark tank. The shark tank. Boss Paul Vitti : They were trying to make a point. Dr. Ben Sobel : What, that you're a scary guy? Believe me, I get it. Boss Paul Vitti : And the milk was black. Jelly : That's fuckin' weird. Boss Paul Vitti : I feel the juices rushing down to my balls as I speak with you. Dr. Ben Sobel : You don't hear the word "no" a lot, do you? Boss Paul Vitti : Well, it's more like "no, no, please?" Boss Paul Vitti : I was Fredo? I don't think so. Boss Paul Vitti : [To the 'Captain'] Hey, why don't you look over that way before I bust you in your fuckin' head. Boss Paul Vitti : Hey, I got news for you, you little two-bit prick, son-of-a-bitch, rat-bastard you did nothing for me. Whatever you did the other day didn't take. I'm still fucked up.

Now they got the whole country sectioned off, you can't make a move without a form. Harry Tuttle : ...well, that's a pipe of a different color. Harry Tuttle : Listen, this old system of yours could be on fire and I couldn't even turn on the kitchen tap without filling out a 27b/6... Bloody paperwork.

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor and though I give my body to be burned and have not love, it profiteth me nothing. Love suffereth and love is kind. Love envieth not. Love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But when I became a man, I put away childish things. But now abideth faith, hope, love... these three. But the greatest of these is love. Mendoza : Are you laughing at me? Gabriel : I am laughing because what I see is laughable.

Louis Cyphre : They say there's enough religion in the world to make men hate each other, but not enough to make them love. Harry Angel : "Louis Cyphere"... "Lucifer". Even your NAME is a dime store joke. Louis Cyphere : "Mephistopheles" is SUCH a mouthful in Manhattan.

Chris Shiherlis : Maybe it's the score they were onto, the place, not us. 'Cause it's been hit a couple of times, you know, or something? Neil McCauley : Assume they got our phones, assume they got our houses, assume they got us, right here, right now as we sit, everything. Assume it all.

A man who stood up against the scum, the cunts, the dogs, the filth, the shit. Here is a man who stood up. Travis Bickle : Now I see this clearly. My whole life is pointed in one direction. There never has been a choice for me. Travis Bickle : I got some bad ideas in my head. [Into a mirror.] Travis Bickle : You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talkin' to? You talkin' to me? Well I'm the only one here. Who do you think you're talking to? Oh yeah? Huh? Ok.

Personnel Officer : So now what do you do? Travis Bickle : I ride around most nights -- subways, buses -- but you know, if I'm gonna do that I might as well get paid for it. Personnel Officer : So what is it? Do you need a second job? Are you moonlighting? Travis Bickle : I... I just want to work long hours. What's moonlighting? Travis Bickle : Loneliness has followed me my whole life, everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man.

She was wearing a white dress. She appeared like an angel. Out of this filthy mess, she is alone. They...cannot...touch...her. Travis Bickle : I'll tell you why. I think you're a lonely person. I drive by this place a lot and I see you here. I see a lot of people around you. And I see all these phones and all this stuff on your desk. It means nothing. Then when I came inside and I met you, I saw in your eyes and I saw the way you carried yourself that you're not a happy person. And I think you need something. And if you want to call it a friend, you can call it a friend. Betsy : Are you gonna be my friend? Travis Bickle : Yeah. Travis Bickle : I would say he has quite a few problems. His energy seems to go in the wrong places. When I walked in and I saw you two sitting there, I could just tell by the way you were both relating that there was no connection whatsoever. And I felt when I walked in that there was something between us. There was an impulse that we were both following. So that gave me the right to come in and talk to you. Otherwise I never would have felt that I had the right to talk to you or say anything to you. I never would have had the courage to talk to you. And with him I felt there was nothing and I could sense it. When I walked in, I knew I was right. Did you feel that way? Betsy : I wouldn't be here if I didn't. Betsy : You know what you remind me of? Travis Bickle : What? Betsy : That song by Kris Kristofferson. Travis Bickle : Who's that? Betsy : A songwriter. 'He's a prophet...he's a prophet and a pusher, partly truth, partly fiction. A walking contradiction.' Travis Bickle : [uneasily] You sayin' that about me? Betsy : Who else would I be talkin' about? Travis Bickle : I'm no pusher. I never have pushed. Betsy : No, no. Just the part about the contradictions. You are that. Travis Bickle : Hello Betsy. Hi, it's Travis. How ya doin'? Listen, uh, I'm, I'm sorry about the, the other night. I didn't know that was the way you felt about it. Well, I-I didn't know that was the way you felt. I-I-I would have taken ya somewhere else. Uh, are you feeling better or oh you maybe had a virus or somethin', a 24-hour virus you know. It happens. Yeah, umm, you uh, you're workin' hard. Yeah. Uh, would you like to have, uh, some dinner, uh with me in the next, you know, few days or somethin'? Well, how about just a cup of coffee?

Movie Title: Casino (1995) as Ace Rothstein: Ace Rothstein : [narrating] Nicky's methods of betting weren't scientific, but they worked. When he won, he collected. When he lost, he told the bookies to go fuck themselves. I mean, what were they going to do, muscle Nicky? Nicky was the muscle. Ace Rothstein : [narrating] In Vegas, everybody's gotta watch everybody else. Since the players are looking to beat the casino, the dealers are watching the players. The box men are watching the dealers. The floor men are watching the box men. The pit bosses are watching the floor men. The shift bosses are watching the pit bosses. The casino manager is watching the shift bosses. I'm watching the casino manager. And the eye-in-the-sky is watching us all. Ace Rothstein : When you love someone, you've gotta trust them. There's no other way. You've got to give them the key to everything that's yours. Otherwise, what's the point? And, for a while, I believed that's the kind of love I had. Ace Rothstein : He was a young kid from the casino. Nice kid, bright boy. What balls on this fuckin' kid. The next day I fired him. Ace Rothstein : Running a casino is like robbing a bank with no cops around. For guys like me, Las Vegas washes away your sins. It's like a morality car wash. Ace Rothstein : In the casino, the cardinal rule is to keep them playing and to keep them coming back. The longer they play, the more they lose, and in the end, we get it all. Ace Rothstein : Back home, they put me in jail for what I'm doing. Here, they give me awards. [last line] Ace Rothstein : And that's that. Ace Rothstein : No matter how big a guy might be, Nicky would take him on. You beat Nicky with fists, he comes back with a bat. You beat him with a knife, he comes back with a gun.

He said if things didn't work out between us, I could get my stuff and I could leave. Ace Rothstein : Look at my eyes, do you see anything in the eyes that makes you think I'm going to let you take my child away from me with your condition? Nicky Santoro : Back- Back up, back up a fuckin' minute here. One minute. I asked you? When the fuck did I ever ask you if I could come out here? Get this through your head, you... Ace Rothstein : You never... Nicky Santoro : Get this through your head you Jew motherfucker, you. You only exist out here because of me. That's the only reason. Without me, you, personally, every fuckin' wise guy skell around'll take a piece of your fuckin' Jew ass. Then where you gonna go? You're fuckin' warned. Don't ever go over my fuckin' head again. You motherfucker, you. Ace Rothstein : You fucking mo-mo, what's the matter with you? Nicky Santoro : So in other words - I'm fucked. Ace Rothstein : In so many words, yes. Nicky Santoro : I'm what counts out here. Not your fuckin' country clubs or your fuckin' TV shows. And what the fcuk are you doin' on TV anyhow? Ace Rothstein : What are you... Nicky Santoro : You know I get calls from back home every fuckin' day? They think that you went batshit. Ace Rothstein : I'm only TV because I gotta be able to hang around the casino. You understand that. You know that. Come on. Nicky Santoro : Your fuckin' ass. You could have done the food and beverage job without goin' on television. You wanted to go on TV. Ace Rothstein : Yeah, I did want to go on TV. That way I have a forum. I can fight back. I'm known. They know they can't fuck around with me like they could if I was an unknown. That's right. Nicky Santoro : You're makin' a big fuckin' spectacle of yourself. Nicky Santoro : Ace don't... listen, don't... don't make a scene, all right? Ace Rothstein : I want to just talk. I want to talk to that Irish bitch. Nicky Santoro : She didn't know who to turn to. She... she didn't know where to turn. She was tryin' to save your marriage. Ace Rothstein : Yeah? Nicky, I want to talk to that fuckin' bitch. Nicky Santoro : Hey, be fuckin' nice. Calm. Be nice. Don't fuck up in here, Ace Rothstein : [narrating over Ginger and Nicky in bed] And This... This is how she backed him off. [A plane just crash-landed on the golf course] Ace Rothstein : The feds were watching Nicky play golf for so long that they ran out of gas. Ace Rothstein : Whoever it was, they put the dynamite under the passenger's side. But what they didn't know, what nobody outside the factory knew, was that that model car was made with a metal plate under the driver's seat. It's the only thing that saved my life. Ace Rothstein : [narrating] Well, it wasn't long before what I was afraid was gonna happened, happen. Nicky managed to get himself banned from every casino in Las Vegas, and from then on i couldn't be seen anywhere near him. [Last lines] Ace Rothstein : [narrating] The town will never be the same. After the Tangiers, the big corporations took it all over. Today it looks like Disneyland. And while the kids play cardboard pirates, Mommy and Daddy drop the house payments and Junior's college money on the poker slots. In the old days, dealers knew your name, what you drank, what you played. Today, it's like checkin' into an airport. And if you order room service, you're lucky if you get it by Thursday. Today, it's all gone. You get a whale show up with four million in a suitcase, and some twenty-five-year-old hotel school kid is gonna want his Social Security Number. After the Teamsters got knocked out of the box, the corporations tore down practically every one of the old casinos. And where did the money come from to rebuild the pyramids? Junk bonds. But in the end, I wound up right back where I started. I could still pick winners, and I could still make money for all kinds of people back home. And why mess up a good thing? Movie Title: True Confessions (1981) as Des Spellacy: Jack Amsterdam : You knew that whore and you didn't tell anyone. You're a priest, a priest, for chrissakes. Des Spellacy : I knew her.

Tom Spellacy : Tell her they didn't have Instant Cream of Wheat, either. [Tom gives Des the rosary he took from the priest who died while in bed with a prostitute] Des Spellacy : He might have been there on a pastoral call. Tom Spellacy : When was the last time you hung your pants over the side of the bed while making a house call? Des Spellacy : I admit, that's not the way they teach you at the seminary.
