Billy Hitchcock: Carter, you dick!

Billy Hitchcock: There they go, here we stay. [As he watches the plane take off and then explode]
-
Carter: As far as I know, this shit can circle around and get us all again. But for right now, I'm the safest fucker in the world, because you're still NEXT.
-
Tod Waggner: We say that the hour of death cannot be forecast, but when we say this we believe it's in a far and distant future. Not to have any connections with the day already began, or that death could arrive this same afternoon...
-
Bludworth: There are no accidents, no coincidences, and no escapes.
