Play with matches, you get burned. – Vincent

Pride only hurts; it never helps. – Marsellus

Hey, that’s Kool and the Gang. – Jules

Any time is a good time for pie. – Marsellus

I just accidentally shot Marvin in the throat. – Vincent

Just because you are a character doesn’t mean that you have character. – Winston Wolf

I don’t know… there probably never was a ‘little girl’ in the first place. The point of the story isn’t the little girl; the point of the story is: they robbed a bank with a telephone. – Pumpkin

Nobody ever robs restaurants. Bars, liquor stores, gas stations… you get your head blown off sticking up one of them. Restaurants on the other hand, you catch with their pants down. They’re not expecting to get robbed. Not as expectant anyway. – Pumpkin

Vincent: [parks car] The f*** is this place?
Mia: This is “Jack Rabbit Slim’s”. An Elvis man should love it.
Vincent: Come on Mia, lets go and get a steak.
Mia: You can get steak here daddy-o. Don’t be a *square*.
Vincent: Oh after you, Kitty Kat.

I want to dance, I want to win. I want that trophy, so dance good. – Mia Wallace

I’ll be there in two shakes of a lamb’s tail. – Mia Wallace

You know what you two look like? Like a couple of guys who just blew off somebody’s head. Stripping off those bloody rags is absolutely necessary. – Winston Wolf

Three tomatoes are walking down the street — a poppa tomato, a momma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and squishes him… and says, ‘Ketchup.’ – Mia

Oh, I’m sorry! Did I break your concentration? – Jules Winfield

If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions. – Jules

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you. – Jules

Whether or not what we experienced was an ‘According to Hoyle’ miracle is irrelevant. What is relevant is that I felt the touch of God. God got involved. – Jules

Hamburgers. The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast. – Jules

Well, the way they make shows is, they make one show. That show’s called a pilot. Then they show that show to the people who make shows, and on the strength of that one show they decide if they’re going to make more shows. Some pilots get picked and become television programs. Some don’t, become nothing. She starred in one of the ones that became nothing. – Jules

It breaks down like this: it’s legal to buy it, it’s legal to own it, and, if you’re the proprietor of a hash bar, it’s legal to sell it. It’s legal to carry it, but that doesn’t really matter ’cause — get a load of this — if you get stopped by the cops in Amsterdam, it’s illegal for them to search you. I mean, that’s a right… the cops in Amsterdam don’t have. – Vincent Vega

It’s like a wax museum with a pulse. – Vincent

I don’t mean any disrespect; I just don’t like people barking orders at me. – Vincent

Oh, that what now. I tell you what now between me and you. There is no me and you. Not no more. – Marsellus

Why didn’t you say something, Marvin? Slipped your mind? You forgot to mention someone’s in the bathroom with a g**d*** handcannon? – Vincent Vega

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go home and have a heart attack. – Vincent

I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. A dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way. – Jules

I don’t give a damn what men find attractive. It’s unfortunate what we find pleasing to the touch and pleasing to the eye is seldom the same. – Fabienne

Potbellies make a man look either oafish, or like a gorilla. But on a woman, a potbelly is very sexy. The rest of you is normal. Normal face, normal legs, normal hips, normal ass, but with a big, perfectly round potbelly. If I had one, I’d wear a tee-shirt two sizes too small to accentuate it. – Fabienne

Butch: Will you hand me a towel, tulip?
Fabienne: Ah, I like that. I like tulip. Tulip is much better than mongoloid.

Nobody kills anyone in my store except me and Zed. – Maynard

That’s the Marilyn Monroe section that’s Mamie Van Doren. I don’t see Jayne Mansfield, she must have the night off or something. – Vincent

Lance: Still got your Malibu?
Vincent: Aw, man. You know what some f***er did the other day?
Lance: What?
Vincent: F***ing keyed it.
Lance: Oh, man, that’s f***ed up.
Vincent: Tell me about it. I had it in storage for three years, it was out for five days and some d*ckless piece of s**t f***ed with it.
Lance: They should be f***ing killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution.
Vincent: Boy, I wish I could’ve caught him doing it. I’d have given anything to catch that asshole doing it. It’d been worth him doing it just so I could’ve caught him doing it.

That’s thirty minutes away. I’ll be there in ten. – The Wolf

The Wolf: You’re… Jimmie, right? This is your house?
Jimmie: Sure is.
The Wolf: I’m Winston Wolfe. I solve problems.
Jimmie: Good, we got one.
The Wolf: So I heard. May I come in?
Jimmie: Uh, yeah, please do.

Jules: Look, do you wanna play blindman? Go walk with the shepherd. But me, my eyes are wide f***ing open.
Vincent: What the f*** does that mean?
Jules: It means, that’s it for me. From here on in you can consider my ass retired.
Vincent: Jesus Christ.
Jules: Don’t blaspheme.
Vincent: G**d***.
Jules: I said don’t do that!

Jules: I’ll just walk the earth.
Vincent: What’cha mean walk the earth?
Jules: You know, walk the earth, meet people… get into adventures. Like Caine from “Kung Fu.”

I’ll just be Jules, Vincent — no more, no less. – Jules

[last lines]
Vincent: I think we should be leaving now.
Jules: Yeah, that’s probably a good idea.
