The Place Beyond the Pines

"When I was a kid I used to look at my dad dressed in judge's robes and I used to think that my father was a superhero. And I don't think I was far off. He had that quality that judges have, where they have tremendous compassion, but they're also ferocious at the same time. He wasn't afraid of making enemies. I think that's probably why he had so many friends."

"He can get his own girl and his own kid, that's every man's right."

"He's my son and I should be around him. I wasn't around my Dad and look at the fuckin' way I turned out."

"Got a kid? You wanna provide for that kid? You want to edge out your competition? You gotta do that using your skill set. And your skill set? Very unique."

"You don't love me you... don't like me... I fuckin' get it! I'm a piece of shit, OK? I'm still his father, I can give him stuff. I got this for him, just give it to him. Tell him it's from me."

"I'll make you an assistant DA. I'll never shake your fucking hand! You're too smart for your own good."

"You fucked up my son's life; therefore, you fucked up my life."

Luke: "I'm not asking for an advance, I'm quitting."
Jack: "You can't quit."
Luke: "I just did."
