- Thomas Banacek: "Read the whole library, my son, but the cheese will still smell after four days." That's an old Polish proverb.
- Felix Mulholland: Really? Well maybe it just takes an old Pole to understand it.
- Thomas Banacek: No, it means that no matter how much you know, natural laws are natural laws, and you must put your faith in the Boston police.
- Joe Taddenhurst: Hello, Bana-SEK.
- Thomas Banacek: Bana-CHEK. How are you, Taddenhurst?
- Joe Taddenhurst: Impressed. I looked up and I thought "Is it a bird? Is it s plane?" Then I realized, "No! It's Super-Pole!"
- Thomas Banacek: Cute. You meant that to be cute, didn't you?
- Joe Taddenhurst: Why do I always have the feeling you're zinging me?
- Thomas Banacek: I suppose you're a very sensitive man.
- Joe Taddenhurst: I really can't stand the sight of you. You know that?
- Thomas Banacek: [laughs] Does that mean you're gonna change your will?
- Joe Taddenhurst: No. That means I'm gonna do everything I can to beat your arrogant rear end to that car.
- Thomas Banacek: Just when I was gonna tell you my theory. Too bad.
- Felix Mulholland: I'm learning karate.
- Thomas Banacek: Sitting down?
- Felix Mulholland: Do I detect a note of cynacism in your voice?
- Thomas Banacek: I took combat judo in the Marine Corps, but as I remember, they didn't issue us any easy chairs.
- Felix Mulholland: Well, some people HAVE to do things the hard way, but I find that once I've got it up here, the rest of me flows along with perfect harmony.
