 Colin Farrell Quotation"Being Irish is very much a part of who I am. I take it everywhere with me." (On people who drink tequila) "I tell them, 'When you're at home puking your guts out, I'll be here drinking my Amstel Light.'" "I couldn't care less about who sees my bits ... My friends asked how I could do scenes like that and not get excited, but it wasn't like that. My bits looked the size of a cashew nut!" (Colin Farrell on appearing nude in Tigerland). [on physical training for film roles] "I find it the most tedious waste of life. It's so boring. I'd prefer to be sitting in a pub with a few strangers talkin' shit than looking at meself in the mirror runnin' on the treadmill." "It all goes back to [Joel Schumacher]. I wouldn't have done Phone Booth without him. I wouldn't be doing Hart's War. I probably wouldn't have done American Outlaws if he hadn't picked me out of obscurity. I've worked, but not at the level or people I'm working with now if he hadn't taken a chance on an Irish kid playing a Texan." "I'm in no hurry to get anywhere. I don't have any plans. I don't have a map. If you did in this business, you'd destroy yourself." On Hollywood: I'm not seduced by it all. I swear to God. I'm easily pleased, yeah. Don't get me wrong, I'll indulge in it. I'll be in Los Angeles for two weeks and I'll have a laugh, get battered and have a buzz, but at the end of the day, I'll go home. It's just me earning a few more stories to tell everyone at home and all. "It kind of went downhill, I was smoking a bit of reef. You know, you roll your first joint, drink your first beer and discover the girls and, well, that was it. I loved football, but I couldn't make the training any more" - on his football aspirations as a youth "I do have the ability to explore life and to be over the moon at the smallest thing - a few pints and a craic in the pub and I'm in heaven. But I have a melancholy side to me as well. Acting allows me to feel things, it kind of buys me human experience. And I don't mean this as acting as higher cause, because it's not, but it does kind of have a higher awareness emotionally." "I work my arse off. I'm never late, ask anyone. I'm only 27. I don't feel like a big star. I feel neither the pressure nor the grandeur of my situation, you know. I think I'm still trying to find my feet as an actor. And I know it ain't brain surgery, but it confuses me and it comes between me and my sleep a lot" "I'm just a true Irish boy at heart. I'm just myself, I stick by my guns and I treat people the way I think they should be treated, regardless of their status. And I just have a laugh" Movie Title: American Outlaws (2001) as Jesse James: Cole : Everyone keeps callin' us the James Younger gang, why aren't we the Younger James gang, I mean, there are three Younger Brothers and two James brothers. Bob : The Younger-James gang is confusing. If we bust into a bank and yell "Hey we're the Younger-James gang", people'll be thinging the YOUNGER-James gang? Is there an older James gang? then poeple'll be thinkin' bout that instead of raisin' their arms. Jesse James : Can't argue with that Cole. Cole : Sadie was a beautiful woman, Sadie was not a man! Jesse James : She had a mustache, a nice mustache. Frank : I think she had more than a mustache! Cole : Well, she was European. Jesse James : Hey stupid, yeah you. Glad you know your name you dumb shit! Head Teller : Why sir, this bill is counterfeit! Jesse James : No, I don't think so. And I'll have to see the rest of your money to compare. Frank : Its a scientific method, I hear it all the rage!. [To Zee] Jesse James : You got big. I mean, you aged. What I mean to say is you got big and older. Jesse James : Your to young to drink whiskey Jim : If I'm old enough to shoot a man, I'm old enough to drink whiskey! Jesse James : Hands off your hip Cole. Cole : Ain't scared are ya Jesse? Jesse James : Pick your fights cousin, you taught me that. Jesse James : You got a plan. Bob : My plan of lying here pissing myself is working mighty fine, thank you very much. Ma James : The Lord says we can bury outback in the orchard. No one will ever find him. Jesse James : Somebody sure is in a vengeful mood today. Frank : Why don't we let 'em go for today, Ma? Well bury 'em outback next time. Ma James : *sad* Aww...All right. Jesse James : Hey Doc, I was wonderin' if I could come by later. Doc Mimms : Of course, you know you're always welcome here Jesse. Jesse James : Yeah, I know, but I meant if I could come and take Zee out. No where far, ya know around here but, [clears throat] Jesse James : OUT. Doc Mimms : That's fine with me. Frank : [with a grin] Oh, don't you worry, I make sure these two are properly chaperoned! Doc Mimms : Why that thought hadn't even crossed my mind, thank you Frank. Frank : That Zerelda turn into one hell of a women eh? Jesse James : Oh yea. Frank : "Big and Older"? Jesse James : You can shut up now, Frank. Frank : You are a charmer. Jesse James : I swear to god I will shoot you in your sleep. Frank : Next time try "Fat and Haggard"! Cole : Where you been buddy? Jesse James : What's going on? Cole : Well, nothin' really. Frank : ...I just need a distraction. Jesse James : A distraction? [starts to smirk] Jesse James : Well why the hell didn't you just say so? [smiles and then runs] Bob : ...He's smilin'! Cole : That's never a good thing. Jesse James : Distracting enough for ya'? Frank : Aw, they hardly even noticed you. Jesse James : So your saying I could have done more to attact their attention? Frank : Uh-uh. Jesse James : Such as? Frank : Well you coulda' worn one of those floppy women's Easter bonnets. Jesse James : Yea, that would've made an impression. Frank : I figure. Jesse James : See that's your problem Frank, by the time your done figurin' out stuff, I'm already finished doin' it. Frank : No Jesse, YOUR problem is you're always doin' stuff before I'm finished figurin' it out. Jesse James : Alright, settle down. Not all this money is ours. Bob : Uh, well...no Jesse, it's the bank's...see that's why we had to go through all the trouble of stealing' it. Jesse James : Let's go home, back to our farms. Cole : Platin' corn, harvesting corn...and eatin' corn. Bob : The corn gonna shoot at me? Cole : Nope Bob : Then I love it. Frank : Well, she's still talking to Jesus. Jesse James : What worries me is that Jesus is talkin' back! Ma James : I heard that. Rollin H Parker : As you no doubt heard from your neighbors, our railroad is moving west- Jesse James : Yea, that makes sense cause, see, movin' east would put you underwater. Rollin H Parker : Howdy folks, how you doin' today. Cole : Howdy? Jesse James : Yea, easterners. Clell : What'll we do? Jesse James : Nothin'! You folks are gonna do nothin'! You're gonna go home right now, you too Doc, so you can swear on a Bible you don't know anything about what's gonna happen tomorrow! Doc Mimms : Boys-- Jesse James : DOC! Go home. They ain't gonna hang no more Liberty boys Zee Mimms : Tennessee? Jesse James : I'll explain on the way. Zee Mimms : When were you planin' on telling me? Jesse James : I just did! Zee Mimms : Only cause I asked! Jesse James : Damn, am I ever gonna win with you? Zee Mimms : Don't change the subject! Zee Mimms : I can't believe I had to blow up a train for you! Jesse James : Well you are a hell of a woman... Zee Mimms : Don't swear! Cole : I'm the better soldier Jesse! Jesse James : And I'm the better outlaw! Jimmy: You both hate the railroad, that's all that matters! Cole : The one time that one of us comes up with an idea... Jesse James : A BAD idea. Cole : Hey, I got us through the war all right. Jesse James : And nearly got hanged at peace time. Bob : They got Cole. Jesse James : What happened, Bob? Bob : Well, those railroad men came to our place and offered to buy for two dollars an acre. And Cole - well - he kinda lost his temper. Frank : Oh, Lord. Jesse James : How many did he kill? Bob : He just lost his temper a little bit. [After Jimmy gets shot] Cole : Bob, get me some bandages. Jesse James : And some whiskey, Bob. Jimmy: Too young for whiskey. Jesse James : I think we'll make an exception this time, Jim. [After Jesse blames himself for Jim's death] Frank : The railroad burned him out, too, you couldn't have stopped him. Jesse James : You're a piss-poor liar for the smartest man I know. Jesse James : A war against the railroad . . . what the hell was I thinking? Frank : Well, I'm sure it seemed like a good idea at the time. Zee Mimms : [while reading a book] Hmmmm . . . Jesse James : "Hmmm" what? Zee Mimms : But the lives of the James gang wasn't all robbing and shooting. For these young Missouri bucks had a taste for the ladies. Especially the handsome and charismatic Jesse James. Jesse James : I beg your pardon! Zee Mimms : Blazing Guns of The West: The True Story of Jesse James. Only a dime in the hotel lobby. Jesse James : Let me see that. Zee Mimms : Oh, I'm not finished. "When he sauntered into a saloon, his spurs jangling and his pockets full of gold, the ladies flocked around him like a candied apple." Like I said... hmmmm. Alan Pinkerton: We're moving you from here. Jesse James : Awww... but I like the presidential suite. Alan Pinkerton: You're not gonna get a fair trial here with a jury full of Jesse James sympathizers. Jesse James : Oh, but I'll get a fair trial with a jury bought off by Thaddeus Reins? Alan Pinkerton: That's the idea. Jesse James : I should've just killed Thaddeus Reins. Alan Pinkerton: That's what I'd have done. Jesse James : I'm not hanged yet. Alan Pinkerton: You cocky little bastard. Jesse James : Oh, you'll miss me. Alan Pinkerton: No . . . I'll hang you. But I might just miss you a little bit. Thaddeus Reins : We'll speak again in Washington. Jesse James : Oh, you're coming on the same train? Well, I'll tell you what, I'm gonna have to pay you a visit. Thaddeus Reins : Big words. Jesse James : That's a promise. Jesse James : If I could get you today, then you damn sure know that I can get you anytime I want now that I'm free. You sleep on that for the next twenty years. Alan Pinkerton: Tennessee. The railroad has no business in Tennessee, therefore I have no interest in the state of Tennessee. Jesse James : Thank you. Alan Pinkerton: I'd just as soon kill you, Jesse James. But chasing you takes up too much of my time. Movie Title: Tigerland (2000) as Bozz: Sergeant: Any questions? Bozz : I got a question, Sergeant. If I'm dead, how come I can ask you a question? Bozz : Courage is when you're the only guy who knows how shit-scared you really are. Miter : You know what I am Bozz? I'm a butcher. Bozz : Yeah, we all butchers, Miter. Miter : No, I'm a real butcher. Bozz : Shit, you haven't killed anyone yet. Miter : God damn it, Bozz, I mean a real butcher. Back home I cut meat. Bozz : What else they gonna do? Send us to Viet-Fucking-Nam? Too late for that shit. Bozz : Nobody saves anybody you stupid son of a bitch. Bozz : Hey let's not become friends, Jim. You could be dead tomorrow and I'd miss you too much. Bozz : My friend here wants to go for the experience, Sergent. Says he ain't scared. Sergeant Cota : Good luck, Private. You ask me, I'll stick with the smart and the scared. [After seeing a demonstration on electrocuting someone's balls] Sergeant: No one said you could leave soldier. Bozz : Why? Sergeant: Why what? Bozz : Why would I want to do that to another human being? Bozz : Jim just shut the fuck up! This is - I know what I'm doin' here! Bozz : Damnit Cantwell! Shit man. Shit! Fuck, I don't even know you, man! You sittin' there telling your fucking stories. You make me want to fuckin' cry! What's that about? Bozz : Just cause you got the stripes don't mean you ain't gonna die. Sergeant: What's the purpose of this cluster fuck? Bozz : [spoken quickly] Wilson tried to switch targets with Cantwell, Sergeant. Wilson : What? Jim : [talking quickly] True Sergeant I saw him do it! Sergeant: Get up Lazarus! You're resurrected! Bozz : [kicks Wilson] ... get up... Bozz : If I told you there was a bunch of people around here who get us to Mexico, away from the war, would you go? Paxton : No... no I wouldn't. I enlisted, so there is a place for me... and if I don't go, somebody is gonna take that place. And if they die, they're dying for me. [Reading girls' palms at a bar] Bozz : Well it says here you got a long sex line. Claudia: Where's it say that? Bozz : I don't know, but it says you're gonna be havin' some sex real soon. Cheri: Woah what about me? Bozz : Oh Yeah. Some Sex for Cheri, too. Movie Title: Alexander (2004) as Alexander: [from trailer] Alexander : Conquer your fear, and I promise you'll conquer death. Movie Title: Minority Report (2002) as Danny Witwer: John Anderton : Why'd you catch that? Danny Witwer : Because it was going to fall. John Anderton : You're certain? Danny Witwer : Yeah. John Anderton : But it didn't fall. You caught it. The fact that you prevented it from happening doesnt change the fact that it was *going* to happen. John Anderton : Why don't you cut the cute act, Danny boy, and tell me what it is you're looking for? Danny Witwer : Flaws. John Anderton : There hasn't been a murder in six years. There's nothing wrong with this system it is... Danny Witwer : Perfect I agree, but there's a flaw. It's human. Danny Witwer : Put the gun down John. I don't hear a red ball. [Sirens begin going off, the same sirens that usually indicate a red ball] Movie Title: Daredevil (2003) as Bullseye: Bullseye : You're good, baby, I'll give you that... but me? I'm magic. Kingpin : Is there anything else? Bullseye : Yeah, I want a bloody costume. Kingpin : How do you kill a man without fear? Bullseye : By puttin' the fear in him. Kingpin : And how did you, get passed my security? Bullseye : Oh, you mean that guy? Kingpin : Was that really necessary? Bullseye : Necessary? No, it was fun. Bullseye : He... made me... miss. Kingpin : You know what they say, too much pride can kill a man. Bullseye : Let's bring on the pain. Let's bring on the noise. Bullseye : I missed? I... never... miss. Bullseye : Come on Orphan, lets play. [Bullseye has used airline peanuts to suffocate an annoying passenger] Flight Attendant : Anything else I can get you, sir? Bullseye : More peanuts... please. Movie Title: Phone Booth (2002) as Stu: The Caller : You're in this position because you're not telling the truth. Stu : No, I'm in this fucking position because YOU HAVE A GUN!

Ramey : Your friend, your lover? Who? The Caller : Careful, Stuart. Careful. Stu : My psychiatrist. The Caller : Excellent! I should have thought of that. Stu : I have never done anything for anybody who couldn't do something for me. I string along an eager kid with promises I'll pay him money. I only keep him around because he looks up to me. Adam, if you're watching, don't be a publicist. You're too good for it. I lie in person and on the phone. I lie to my friends. I lie to newspapers and magazines who, who sell my lies to more and more people. I am just a part of a big cycle of lies, I should be fuckin' president. I wear all this Italian shit because underneath I still feel like the Bronx. I think I need these clothes and this watch. My Two thousand dollar watch is a fake and so am I. I've neglected the things I should have valued most. I valued this shit. I take off my wedding ring to call Pam. Kelly, that's Pam. Don't blame her. I never told her I was married. And if I did she, she would have told me to go home. Kelly, looking at you now, I'm ashamed of myself. Allright? I mean, work so hard on this image, on Stu Shepherd, the asshole who refers to himself in the third person that I only proved I should be alone. I have just been dressing up as something I'm not for so long, I'm so afraid no one will like what's underneath. But here I am, just flesh and blood and weakness, and uh and I love you so fucking much. And, um, I take off this ring because it only reminds me of how I've failed you, and I don't, don't want to give you up. I want to make things better, but it may not be my choice anymore. You deserve better. The Caller : You'd shoot me if you had the chance, wouldn't you? Stu : With a big fucking smile on my face. The Caller : There's the spirit. The Caller : If this is true Stuart, then I have to take somebody with me don't I? And since Kelly is the most important thing in your life, I'll take her. Stu : No, take me! Take me! I'm the one you want! Stu : The first step to being noticed is being mentioned. Stu : My two-thousand dollar watch is a fake, and so am I. Stu : You can see me right now? The Caller : Uh-huh. Stu : What am I doing? [Stu scratches himself] The Caller : You're scratching your ear. Now you're brushing your hair back. [Stu gives the finger to the windows in the buildings around him] The Caller : That isn't very nice, Stu. Stu : Did you call me Stu? Who's Stu? I don't know any Stu. The Caller : Why, do you prefer Stuart? Stu : I never did anything for someone who couldn't do something for me. The Caller : And I wanted to fuck her. Stu : And I wanted to sleep with her. The Caller : No, and I wanted to fuck her. Say it. SAY IT! Stu : And I wanted to fuck her. Stu : [to "Corky"] Get the fuck outta here before I call Hillary and have you deported to New Jersey! Stu : GET HER OUTTA HERE! The Caller : Well, there is someone I'd like you to call. Stu : Name it. The Caller : Try the number you dialed when you first got into the booth. [Stu laughs nervously] Stu : I don't know what you're talking about pal. The Caller : No? Lucky you then, because I wrote it down. I can see every number you pressed. Let's see if Pam is still at work. Stu : No! The Caller : Then I guess I'll have to do it. Stu : Look don't! The Caller : Too late. It's already ringing. I'll put her on speaker so you can hear. Stu : Yer fucking kiddin'! The Caller : Stu, I never kid. Stu : So you'd just whack me for no particular reason? The Caller : Oh, I've got plenty of reasons. And you keep giving me more. Stu : I've been something I'm not for so long, and I'm scared you won't like what's underneath. But here I am, just flesh, blood, and weakness... The Caller : If only you had dealt with the man decently, this might not have been necessary. Stu : I offered him money. I offered him my watch. The Caller : But not your respect, which is what he really wanted. You were dismissive just as you were to the nice pizza guy. You are guilty of inhumanity to your fellow man. Stu : You shoot a gun here there'll be pandemonium, cops will be swarming all over the block The Caller : Think so? Let's see. One... [Stu ducks] The Caller : Two. That won't help you. Three! [fires gun and shoots a toy robot next to the phone booth - no one notices] The Caller : Oh Stu, look at everybody... Look at all the people yelling, Stu, here come the cops, sniper on the roof. Gunfire. Hit the deck. Stu : Where? Where are you? The Caller : There are hundred of windows out there. Why don't you check them out? The Caller : What they don't know, we do to them in our minds isn't that right? Stu : You sick fuck! The Caller : Perfect violation. Stu : I already told you this is a private conversation. Now, what the fuck do you want? Ramey: I just want you to know, that it's safe outside the booth. Caller: No, it's not. Stu : Always get out of the booth. I like in the fucking booth. It's my whole world now, this is my booth and I'm not coming out ever. You hear me? Never. The Caller : [about Stu's wife, Kelly] You think she didn't know she was being watched. Stu : What? The Caller : But beautiful women always know. That false indifference, superior air. It's just a tease. They want eyes on them. Why does she put on her make up? Do her hair? Dress so nicely? Not for her husband which she hardly ever sees, no, it's for somebody else to notice... I notice. Movie Title: S.W.A.T. (2003) as Street: Street : So why'd you pick me? Hondo : To piss off the captain. Boxer : I just want to know what you did to my little sister. Street : She's 28, Boxer, okay? And she's not so little, trust me. McCabe : [laughing] Oh no, you didn't... Street : [to McCabe] Looks like you're not the prettiest one on S.W.A.T. anymore. Chris : You wanna come to my house? Street : That was easy. Chris : My kid's having a birthday party tomorrow. [about Boxer's mustache] Boxer : Your mother likes it. Street : So does your sister. Chris Sanchez : Just because you bought me a drink, doesn't mean you're getting layed tonight. Street : So, what does two drinks mean? Street : I treat my body like an amusement park. [the team's progress is halted by a firmly locked gate] Deke : Ain't that a bitch? Street : A cold hard one. [last lines] Hondo : Technically, our watch has been over for 12 hours. Street : So? Hondo : Yeah. What the hell. Mount up. Hondo : You look like you need a Band-Aid. Street : Somebody else needs a body bag downstairs. Alex Montel : What do you make, $66,000 a year? Street : Not even with overtime. Alex Montel : Ha, loser. Movie Title: The Recruit (2003) as James Clayton: James Clayton : Everything is a test!

Physiatrist: How do upsetting problems generally make you feel? James Clayton : Upset. Walter Burke : Very dramatic, James. James Clayton : I want to talk, can we talk? Walter Burke : Yeah. James Clayton : Where are you? Walter Burke : Well, you know the phone booth you're calling from? James Clayton : Yeah. Walter Burke : Turn around. James Clayton : The Iwo Jima Memorial... this where you tell me about duty and sacrafice? Walter Burke : No. This is where I have my breakfast burrito. James Clayton : You said you wanted to go home and have comfort sex. Did you? Walter Burke : What do you know about the CIA? James Clayton : All I know is they're a bunch of old fat white guys who fell asleep when this country needed them most. James Clayton : Ever since we met we've been lying to each other. Now there's no reason to believe any of it is true, but I'm gonna anyway, okay? James Clayton : Tell me about my father. Walter Burke : You already know, don't you? That's why you're sitting here. You want answers, you're in the wrong car, kid. I only have secrets. James Clayton : I guess it's just me and Sonny Crocket. Ronnie Gibson : Is that the black guy or the white guy?
