Quotes 

• Slevin : I'm sorry, who are you?

  The Boss : I'm The Boss.

  Slevin : I thought he was The Boss.

  The Boss : Why? Do we look alike? So, Mr Fisher, you were gonna tell me something?

  Slevin : I don't know, you brought me here.

  The Boss : Yes I did. Back when you thought I was him.

  Slevin : I didn't think you were him, I thought he was you. And I was trying to tell him - you that they picked up the wrong guy.

  The Boss : The wrong guy for what?

  Slevin : Whatever it is you wanna see me about.

  The Boss : Do you know what I wanna see you about?

  Slevin : No.

  The Boss : Then how do you know I got the wrong guy?

  Slevin : Because I'm not...

  The Boss : Maybe I want to give you $96,000. In that case do I still have the wrong guy?

  Slevin : Do you wanna give me $96,000?

  The Boss : No, do you wanna give me $96,000?

  Slevin : No, should I?

  The Boss : I don't know, should you?

  Slevin : I don't know, should I?

  The Boss : [pause]  Long story short.

  Slevin : I think we're well past that point.

  The Boss : I bet it was that mouth that got you that nose.

  Slevin : Okay, I'm under the impression that you're under the impression that I owe you $96,000...?

  The Boss : No, you owe Slim Hopkins $96,000. You owe Slim, Slim owes me. You owe me.

• The Boss : [shows Slevin the body of Slim in his freezer]  Hey, Slim? Do you know this cat? Slim?

  [turns to Slevin] 

  The Boss : No use. Ever since somebody shot him, old Slim went deaf.

  Slevin : What happened to make Slim go deaf?

  The Boss : Why?

  Slevin : Well, because I owe you $96,000, and I might have a slight problem coming up with the money.

  The Boss : Oh, okay. Well, why don't we just make it an even 90?

  Slevin : I... may have exaggerated the slightness.

• The Boss : I bet it was that mouth that got you that nose.

• The Boss : I hired you to do a job. It wasn't supposed to look like a job. So you take out the Israelis, bomb the damn building and now the job that was not supposed to look like a job is beginning to look very much... like a job.

• The Boss : You? You're the triggerman.

  Slevin : Me?

  The Boss : You.

  Slevin : Aren't there professionals? People you can hire to do this sort of thing?

  The Boss : [laughing]  Of course there are. Yes. But you owe me $96,000. Why should I go out and pay someone else when I've already paid you?

• The Boss : [after Slevin has just told him he'll take the job killing the Rabbi's son]  I knew you had sense.

  Slevin : Sense is something you have when you have a choice.

  The Boss : Sometimes. Sometimes it's when you know you don't.

• The Rabbi : [whispering to Slevin]  Whatever they're paying you...

  [smiles slyly] 

  Slevin : [chuckles slightly]  There is no "they... " I did this to you. Me.

  The Rabbi : You?

  Slevin : Me.

  The Boss : Who ARE you?

• Slevin : Who are you?

  The Boss : I'm The Boss.

  Slevin : I thought he was The Boss.

  The Boss : Why? Do we look alike?

• The Boss : Yitzchok the Fairy.

  Slevin : Why do they call him "the Fairy"?

  The Boss : Because he's a fairy.

  Slevin : What, he's got wings, he flies, he sprinkles magic dust all over the place?

  The Boss : [annoyed]  He's homosexual.

• The Boss : [showing a picture]  That was my son. Notice how I said was?

  Slevin : Yeah.

  The Boss : That's because he's dead. Murdered. Relegated to the past tense. Sent from an is to a was before he'd had his breakfast.

  Slevin : Bummer.

• Slevin : Anything else you want to tell me?

  The Boss : I suppose I don't need to say anything as trite and cliched as "go to the police and you're a dead man".

  Slevin : I think you just did.

  The Boss : I guess I did.

• The Boss : Y-you? Nahh... You're dead. You're DEAD!

• Slevin : Ok, I'm under the impression that you're under the impression that I owe you 96,000 dollars.

  The Boss : No, you owe Slim Hopkins 96,000 dollars. You owe Slim, Slim owes me... You owe me.

• The Boss : Are you familiar with the Shmoo?

• The Boss : Look at me, look at me smile, your son is dead!

• The Boss : That's all there is to it.

  Slevin : Is that all there is to it?

  Mr. Goodkat : Yup... That's all there is to it.

• The Boss : Pact was broken. My son was murdered so, the Rabbi's son must suffer the same fate

  Slevin : Who's son?

  The Boss : The Rabbi's

  Slevin : Why do they call him "the Rabbi"?

  The Boss : Because he's a Rabbi

  Slevin : Who's his son

  The Boss : Yitzchok... Yitzchok the fairy

  Slevin : Why do they call him "the fairy"?

  The Boss : [rolls eyes]  Because he's a fairy.
