Boss Quotes in The Way of the Dragon (1972)

Ho: Please, we are friends! Tang Lung is our enemy. Please wait for our boss to come back to decide which one of you will take care of that chinaman. Okay?

[the Japanese fighter spits, which enrages Bob Fred. They start fighting again]

Ho: Ahhhh! Ohh, oh, no, don't, stop it! Oh, ohh, stop it! Stop it!

Boss: STOP IT!

[the fighting stops. Bob Fred spots Colt with the Mob boss and walks over]

Fred: Sensei!

[bows]

Colt: [smirks] Bob's my student.

Boss: What I want, I get. And I want that restaurant!

Ho: Yes, Boss. Yes, Boss.

Boss: "Yes, Boss. Yes, Boss." Haven't you wasted enough time!

Ho: But I... but I always do my best.

Boss: Then how you failed?

Ho: Ah! I found that they're being helped by a man named... Tang Lung.

Boss: A man? Only *one* man?

Ho: Ahh, but this man knows Chinese Gung-Fu.

Boss: [incredulously] Kung-Fu?

[first lines]

Ringo: [shoots a snake out of the claws of a flying hawk and cuts egg out of it]

Cowboy: [draws his gun on Piringo and whistles appreciatively]

Boss: Piringo. Been looking for you. It's the end of the road for you.

Boss: [gong] What's that sound?

Ringo: That's the sound of the Gion Shoja temple bells.

Boss: What?

Ringo: You know, those Heike and Genji boys. On a distant island, these to clans split into the Reds and the Whites. Waged a war. Sort of like that, uh, War of the Roses, ya know? In England?

Boss: Who won? The Whites?

Ringo: This high noon battle was waged in Dannoura. Hear the Heike clan in red got themselves hog-tied by the Genji clan in white. Their story goes a little something like this.

Ringo: [switching into Chinese accent] The sound of the Gion Shoja temple bells echoes the impermanence of all things.

Boss: What bells you say?

Ringo: The color of the Sala flower reveals the truth that to flourish is to fall.

[gong]

Ringo: The proud do not endure, like a passing dream on a night in spring.

[sudden shoot out]

Ringo: The mighty fall at last.

Boss: See you in hell!

Ringo: [shoots him, then back into cowboy accent] To be no more than dust before the wind.

[mixes his egg]

Girl: Piringo! That's why I love you!

Receptionist: Mr Balveshman, you have a phone call...

Pugazhendi's Friend: Phone eh? Hello?

Boss: Mr Balvesham, I heard that you called our client "Poda Panni" ?

Pugazhendi's Friend: [to Boss] I have one spot in my...

Pugazhendi's Friend: [to Receptionist] What is English for "iduppu"?

Receptionist: Hip

Pugazhendi's Friend: [to Boss] ... hip. Somebody koothing. I am Kathhing.

Boss: What kind of behavior is this? I'll fire you...

Vadivelu's Uncle: [Poke]

Pugazhendi's Friend: Poda Panni!

Boss: What? You're telling me?

Vadivelu's Uncle: [Poke]

Pugazhendi's Friend: Get lost, Baldy!

Boss: Idiot! Keep the Phone down and come and collect your salary later...

Sebastian: I want to let you know you're looking at a new man. A man who's happy to be here.

Boss: Right, and you'll play the set list.

Sebastian: Gladly... Although, you know, I thought in this town it worked on a sort of "one for you, one for me" basis type system. How about two for you, one for me?

Sebastian: How about all for you and none for me?

Boss: That's perfect, yes.

Sebastian: Great.

Boss: Okay.

Sebastian: Okay, a mutual decision then.

Boss: Made by me.

Sebastian: Right, and I sign off on it, so...

Boss: Whatever. Tell yourself what you want to know.

Arlene: [about the iBabe] Look, at the very least we need to put a warning sticker on the box.

Boss: MP3 players don't have a warning not to have sex with it, right? A bag of potato chips doesn't have a warning, "Please don't fuck these potato chips"!

Boss: Don't be rude to Callie, and don't be advised by Boon. He knows no obstacles, counts no costs, fears no dangers.

Boss: Tough Kazookies.

Boss: Sorry, Luke. I'm just doing my job. You gotta appreciate that.

Luke: Nah - calling it your job don't make it right, Boss.

Ann: What's the occasion?

Boss: Do I need an occasion?

Ann: You *are* an occasion.

Boss: This costume will be fine for you. A Croatian girl left it behind. She got herself well married and left us.

Jana: Yes, she got herself married... to the river.

Boss: Sir, the prima ballerina from the National theater in Belgrade. The black swan in person.

Carl: Black swan or white whore?
