The Departed (2006) quotes
An undercover cop and a mole in the police attempt to identify each other while infiltrating an Irish gang in South Boston.
[during a conference briefing about Costello and his crew] without asking too many questions do you have anyone in with Costello presently?
– Lazio
Maybe. Maybe not. Maybe fuck yourself.
– Dignam
[jokingly with Colin] I’m gonna go have a smoke right now. You want a smoke? You don’t smoke, do ya, right? What are ya, one of those fitness freaks, huh? Go fuck yourself.
– Ellerby
[observing an exchange of microprocessors for money between Costello and Chinese triad members] This is unbelievable. Who put the fuckin’ cameras in this place?
– Dignam
Who the fuck are you?
– Police Camera Tech
I’m the guy who does his job. You must be the other guy.
– Dignam
[after a counseling session] Why is the last patient of the day always the hardest?
– Madolyn
Because you’re tired and you don’t give a shit. It’s not super-natural.
– Billy Costigan
I don’t want to be a product of my environment. I want my environment to be a product of me. Years ago we had the church. That was only a way of saying – we had each other. The Knights of Columbus were real head-breakers; true guineas. They took over their piece of the city. Twenty years after an Irishman couldn’t get a fucking job, we had the presidency. May he rest in peace. That’s what the niggers don’t realize. If I got one thing against the black chappies, it’s this – no one gives it to you. You have to take it.
– Frank Costello
[during a conference briefing about Costello and his crew] My theory on Feds is that they’re like mushrooms, feed ’em shit and keep ’em in the dark.

Who let this IRA motherfucker in my bar?

[the man looks startled]
[laughs] Only kidding. How’s your mother?

Oh… I’m afraid she’s on her way out.

[walks away] We all are. Act accordingly.
– Frank Costello
[smiles and his straightens tie]
I don’t believe it.
– Fitzy
What can’t you believe?
– Mr. French
I spent all fucking night dragging the poor bastard in there. Tell me how they find him so fast? Somebody walking a fucking dog ? What fucking size a dog is that? Has to be a big fucking dog, man. I spent all night doing it man.
– Fitzy
[pause, Frank stares at him]
I’m embarrassed. I still don’t believe he was a cop, I don’t believe it.
– Fitzy
The COPS… are saying he’s a cop… so I won’t look for the cop. Are you soft, Fitz? When I tell you… to dump a body in the marsh, you dump him *IN* the marsh. Not where some guy from John Hancock goes every Thursday, TO GET A FUCKING BLOWJOB!
– Frank Costello
[Fitzy laughs, Frank hits him with his cap]
Don’t laugh! This ain’t Reality TV!
– Frank Costello
[to Colin] One of us had to die. With me, it tends to be the other guy.
– Frank Costello
[during a counseling session with Madolyn] You sit there with a mass murderer. A mass murderer. Your heart rate is jacked, and your hand… steady. That’s one thing I figured out about myself in prison. My hand does not shake… ever.
– Billy Costigan
