Frank Moses: The reporter's dead now. And everyone she spoke to is either dead, or a target, and that includes you.

[Frank calls Cooper on the phone; Cooper is told to stall him while the call is traced]

Frank Moses: Here's the thing, Cooper. With age comes a certain perspective. I'd be a liar if I said there wasn't a time when I was exactly like you: blind ambition, misplaced trust...

William Cooper: Why are you telling me this?

Frank Moses: It may help me to decide what to do next.

William Cooper: Why? What are you thinking about?

Frank Moses: Our business is a very hard one. But it was never the killing or the stress, the bad pay, that bothered me.

William Cooper: Well, what was it, Frank?

Frank Moses: It's the only thing that you love can be taken away from you. It taught me never to care, never to invest. Then I met this woman, Sarah. And now you have her. Now I can't think of anything more horrible than to know that your enemies can hurt someone you love. The feeling is almost indescribable.

[the trace completes, and a technician hands Cooper a printout]

Frank Moses: You still there, Cooper?

William Cooper: [horrified] You're at my house.

[Frank looks out the window into the yard, where Cooper's wife and two children, unaware, are playing]

Frank Moses: Almost indescribable, isn't it?

William Cooper: [whispering] Please... please don't hurt my family.

Frank Moses: If anything happens to Sarah, I will rip everything you love out of your life. And then I'll kill you.

[first lines]

William Cooper: What are you gonna do, Frank?

Frank Moses: I'm gonna kill the Vice President. What are you gonna do?

Frank Moses: Six one, cute hair.

Henry, The Records Keeper: His hair was cute.
