Richard Thornburg: Fine. Done. I accept that. But why in hell can't I get the first class meal my network paid for. Do you know who I am?

Holly McClane: Honey, it's the '90s, remember? Microchips, microwaves, faxes, *air phones*.

John McClane: Hey, well, as far as I'm concerned, progress peaked with frozen pizza.

Holly McClane: [after the terrorist attack] Why does this keep happening to us?
