• [At a Lakers game] 

  Claire : C'mon! Take it to the hole!

  Raymond : Oh, baby! I love it when you talk dirty!

• Claire : Stop the car!

  Raymond : Stop the car? THIS IS A CAR CHASE! I went to considerable expense to set this up. We can't just stop!

• Raymond : Dr. Eugene Sands?

  Eugene : How do you know my name?

  Raymond : Took an interest.

  Eugene : I'm sorry, you are?

  Raymond : Oh, I'm sorry. Raymond Blossom.

  Eugene : You gonna hurt me?

  Raymond : You asking because you're afraid or because you want me to?

  Eugene : Just trying to plan my day.

  Raymond : Oh, man, if I'm interfering with your plans, please forgive me. It's just I was so knocked out by what you did last night I said I gotta meet this guy. That's it. That's all there is to it. Medical Science amazes me.

  Eugene : Is kidnapping the only way you can meet new friends?

• Raymond : what does it look like I'm doing? I'm fucking everybody!

• Gage : [answering phone]  Gage.

  Raymond : It's Raymond Blossom.

  Gage : Do I know you?

  Raymond : As well as you can know someone you have under 24 hour surveillance.

  Gage : Oh, that Raymond Blossom.

• [During a car chase] 

  Raymond : Use the Force, Luke!

• Raymond : You've got to EMBRACE your criminal self!

  Claire : Maybe he doesn't have a criminal self.

• Raymond : You think I'm criminal?

  Eugene : I think you're about as much of a criminal as I'm a doctor.

  Raymond : And you're a very good doctor.

• Raymond : Hey, Eugene, have you ever thought about the idea that everything that happens, every action, causes a reaction? I mean, no matter how far away or obscure? Ah. A butterfly flaps its wings in Tibet, a car gets a flat in Toronto, a guy gets a blow job in Bangkok. All connected. All subject to the linkages of cause and effect, even if comprehensible only in retrospect.
