Movie quotes

  • (..) a bounty hunter deals in corpses. Prost. The state places a bounty on a man's head, I track that man, I find that man, I kill that man, after I've killed him, I transport that man's corpse back to the authorities, and sometimes that's easier said then done, I show that corpse to the authorities (..)
