Brick Top : You're always gonna have problems lifting a body in one piece. Apparently the best thing to do is cut up a corpse into six pieces and pile it all together.
Sol : Would someone mind telling me, who are you?
Brick Top : And when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because it's no good leaving it in the deep freeze for your mum to discover, now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You got to starve the pigs for a few days, then the sight of a chopped-up body will look like curry to a pisshead. You gotta shave the heads of your victims, and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggies' digestion. You could do this afterwards, of course, but you don't want to go sievin' through pig shit, now do you? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, "as greedy as a pig".
Vinny : Well, thank you for that. That's a great weight off me mind. Now, if you wouldn't mind telling me who the fuck you are, apart from someone who feeds people to pigs of course?

Sol : You ain't from this planet are you, Vincent? Who is gonna mug two black fellas, holding pistols, sat in a car that is worth less than your shirt?

Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : [after shooting Frankie] Drop the gun, fat boy.
[Tyrone does]
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : [re: Frankie] You fucking idiots! He could not know my name. Give me the stone.
Vinny : [pointing] It's in the case.
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : What?
[takes out his earplugs]
Vinny : It's in the case!
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : You put the stone in the case? Then open the case and give me the stone.
Sol : The only man who knew the combination... you just shot.
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : [mutters] Yob tvoyu mat...
[Russian, "fuck your mother"]

Sol : You are a bad-boy yardie, and bad-boy yardies are supposed to know how to get rid of bodies.
Bad Boy Lincoln : I create the bodies. I don't erase the bodies.

Vinny : [Vinny brings a dog into the shop while Sol is examining a diamond for Bad Bay Lincoln] Bad Boy. Sol.
Bad Boy Lincoln : Easy.
Sol : No, it's a moissanite.
Bad Boy Lincoln : A what-in-ite?
Sol : A moissanite is an artificial diamond, Lincoln. It's Mickey Mouse, mate. Spurious. Not genuine. And it's worth... fuck-all.
[he hands back the stone]
Vinny : Bad Boy, I keep tellin' ya, stick to being a gangster. Leave this game to me and Sol.
Bad Boy Lincoln : Laters.
[he walks out]
Sol : What is that, Vince?
Vinny : This is a dog, Sol.
Sol : You are NOT bringing that thing in here.
Vinny : What's your problem? It's only a fucking dog.
Sol : Where did you get it?
Vinny : The gyppos. Here.
[he tosses Sol a bag]
Vinny : They threw it in with a load of moody gold. You know gyppos, Sol. They're always throwing dogs in with deals.
Sol : Well, it better not be dangerous.
[Vinny takes the dog off its leash]
Sol : What do you think you're doing now?
Vinny : Well, I want him to get used to the shop, don't I?
[Boris opens the door and walks in; the dog runs out and Vinny takes off after it]
Vinny : Oi! Oi, stop the dog! Come back here!
Sol : All right, Boris? Don't worry about the dog.
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : I'm not.
Sol : What can I do for you, Boris?
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : I have a job for you.
Sol : I already have a job.
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : Fifty grand for half day's work.
Sol : Go on.
Boris 'The Blade' Yurinov : I want you to hold up a bookies.

[standing over Franky's body]
Bad Boy Lincoln : What has he got a tea cozy on his head for?
Sol : [sarcastic] To keep his head warm.
Bad Boy Lincoln : Well, what's the matter with him?
Vinny : He's been shot in the face, Lincoln. I would've thought that was obvious.
-
Vinny : Now I don't want to put a bullet in your face, but if you don't give us *exactly* what we want, there will be fucking murder.
Bullet Tooth Tony : [to Tyrone] What's your name?
Sol : Shoot him.
Bullet Tooth Tony : Ooh.
-
Vinny : Do they fire?
Sol : Of course, they fire.
Vinny : Yeah, but, how d'you know? I mean, they're replicas. What do you know about replicas?
[Sol fires his replica pistol at the roof of the car, blowing out the car windows. Everyone screams]
Vinny : What the fuck are you doing, Solomon?
Sol : Well you wanted to know whether or not they worked!
Vinny : I didn't mean try it in the car, Sol! You arsehole!
[Tyrone drives into Boris the Blade]
