SUDDEN IMPACT




CALLAHAN: Go ahead, make my day.


CALLAHAN: Listen, punk... to me you ain't nothing but dog shit, you understand? And a lot of things can happen to dog shit. It can be scraped up with a shovel off the ground, it can dry up and blow away in the wind, or it can be stepped on and squashed. So take my advice and be careful where the dog shits ya.


CALLAHAN: We're not just gonna let you walk outta here.

ROBBER: Who's we, sucker?

CALLAHAN: Smith, Wesson, and me.


DETECTIVE: Hey, don't tell me this shit's getting to you. Not Harry Callahan. Say it ain't so.

CALLAHAN: No, this stuff isn't getting to me, the shootings, the knifings, the beatings, old ladies being bashed in the head for their social security checks, teachers being thrown out of a fourth floor window because they don't give A's. That doesn't bother me a bit.

DETECTIVE: Come on Harry, take it easy.

CALLAHAN: Or this job either, having to wade through the scum of this city, being swept away by bigger and bigger waves of corruption, apathy and red tape. No, that doesn't bother me. But you know what does bother me?

DETECTIVE: What?

CALLAHAN: You know what makes me really sick to my stomach?

DETECTIVE: What?!

CALLAHAN: It's watching you stuff your face with those hot dogs. Nobody... I mean NOBODY puts ketchup on a hot dog.

DETECTIVE: What the hell are you talking about?

CALLAHAN: I'm talking about having our fingers in the holes and the whole damn dike's crumbling around us.


CALLAHAN: Swell.


CALLAHAN: You're a legend in your own mind.


CALLAHAN: (After watching Horace at target practice) Not bad.

HORACE: Not bad, my ass. You've got to strain the remains for the fingerprints.

CALLAHAN: Well this is the .44 Magnum Auto-Mag. It holds a 300-grain cartridge. And if properly used, it can remove the fingerprints.


RAY PARKINS: Hi cutie. Wanna buy me a drink?

CALLAHAN: Not today.

RAY PARKINS: Come on, sailor. I know there's some question you want to ask me. Go ahead, you might get lucky.

CALLAHAN: Only with humans.


CALLAHAN: Why don't you boys go suck some fish heads, huh?
