Franck Dotzler: If you go down this road, the LAPD, the FBI, the CIA... they're all gonna come for you. They'll find you. And they'll stop you.
Bryan Mills: Good luck.
[Bryan has just shot Stuart, who has confessed to framing him for Lenore's murder]
Bryan Mills: I know you know a lot of people, and with a good lawyer you'll get out of jail in a few years. And then I'll come for you. I'll find you, and we both know what's gonna happen.
Lenore St. John: Why do you have to be so damn honorable?
Bryan Mills: Believe me, right now I wish I weren't.
Officer Bernard: This is gonna end bad for you.
Bryan Mills: Don't be such a pessimist.

Kim Mills: If it's a girl, we'd like to name her after mom.
Bryan Mills: She'd like that very much, Kim.
Bernie: You want me to put a tail on him?
Franck Dotzler: No, it's a waste of time. They always fumble them. These guys could lose a tail if it was attached to a dog. We're done.
Clerk Toy Store: No matter how old they are, my friend, they will always be our baby.
Bryan Mills: Ain't that true? Come on, big guy.
