The Hard Way (1991 film) Quotes

Michael J. Fox as Nick Lang

  • (Michael J. Fox) "Oh, don't you take that tone with me."
  • (Michael J. Fox) "When are you going to get me something with a little relevance, a little social conscience, something that doesn't have a god**** Roman numeral in the title? You ever hear of "Hamlet III," "Midsummer Night's IV"?"
  • (Penny Marshall) "They made "Henry V". It won awards for that little Scottish guy."
  • (Michael J. Fox) "Oh man, this is too real."

  • (Michael J. Fox) "Will you open up? I just want to know what it feels like to be inside your skin."
  • (James Woods) "I DON'T WANT YOU INSIDE MY SKIN, YOU UNDERSTAND? It's private. What's in there belongs to me. You're not gonna learn what it means to be a cop by eating hot dogs and picking your teeth and asking stupid questions. We live this job. It's something we are, not something we do. Every time a cop walks up to a car and has to give a speeding ticket, he know he may have to kill someone or be killed himself. That's not something you step into by strapping on a rubber gun and riding around all day. You get to go back to your million dollar beach house and your bimbos and your blow jobs and you get 17 takes to get it right. We get one take. It lasts our whole lives. We mess it up and we're dead."
  • (Michael J. Fox) "f*** was that great. John. Look. Can you just say that one more time for me, please? John."

  • (James Woods) "HEY, UP YOURS, ASSHOLE. What do you think?"
  • (James Woods) "Don't eat like me, don't sit like me, and do not smoke like me. I'm trying to quit, anyway."
  • (Michael J. Fox) "Me too."
  • (James Woods) "And don't quit like me, either."
  • (James Woods) "Now what you boys want to do is you want to graduate from high school, get decent jobs. Take a shot at white-collar crime, that's where the real money is."

  • (Michael J. Fox) "So that's what this is all about, isn't it? You're still after this guy."

  • (Annabella Sciorra) "It's not that. It's not you. You're fine. It's what you do. It's -- it's all the violence. I have spent my life trying to run away from that. I cannot put Bonnie in a position where she doesn't know if her father's gonna come home alive."
  • (James Woods) "Yeah, I understand. Sure. Cops are too angry, too violent -- too risky to care about -- until you need one. Then we're the Second Coming, aren't we? I understand that one all right."
