## James Bond

* A medium dry martini, lemon peel, shaken, not stirred.
* That's a Smith & Wesson, and you've had your six. [Bond shoots Dent twice, killing him.]

## Dr. No

* Unfortunately I misjudged you, you are just a stupid policeman ... [metal door opens and guards enter] ... whose luck has run out.

## M

* If you carry a double-O number, it means you're licensed to kill, not get killed.

    Felix Leiter: Where did you get that suit?
    James Bond: My tailor, in Savile Row.
    Felix Leiter: Mine's from Washington. Felix Leiter, Central Intelligence Agency.
    Sylvia Trench: When did you say you had to leave?
    James Bond: Immediately... almost immediately.
    James Bond: Moneypenny! What gives?
    Miss Moneypenny: Me, given an ounce of encouragement. You've never taken me to dinner looking like this. You've never taken me to dinner ...
    James Bond: I would, you know. Only M would have me court-martialed for... illegal use of government equipment.
    Miss Moneypenny: Flattery will get you nowhere — but don't stop trying.
    [Bond outruns a hearse full of henchmen (the "Three Blind Mice") through a construction site on a hill, causing the hearse to careen off the road and explode]
    Construction worker: How did it happen?
    James Bond: I think they were on their way to a funeral.
    Dr. No: I'm a member of SPECTRE.
    James Bond: [confused] SPECTRE?
    Dr. No: SPECTRE. SPecial Executive for Counter-intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge, and Extortion. The four great cornerstones of power headed by the greatest brains in the world.
    James Bond: Correction. Criminal brains!
    Dr. No: The successful criminal brain is always superior. It has to be!
    Dr. No: The Americans are fools. I offered my services, they refused. So did the East. Now they can both pay for their mistake.
    James Bond: World domination, same old dream. In England, our sanitariums are full of men who think they are Napoleon. Or God.
    Honey Ryder: I put a black widow spider underneath his mosquito net ... a female, they're the worst. It took him a whole week to die. [Bond looks shocked] Did I do wrong?
    James Bond: Well, it wouldn't do to make a habit of it.
