Memorable quotes from Dirty Harry
"You gotta be kidding. I don't got any time to break in any newcomers. Why don't you do this boy a favor ... if I need a partner, I'll get me someone who knows what the hell he's doin'."
"Now you know why they call me "Dirty Harry". I get every dirty job that comes along."
"Gonzalez was obeying orders from his superior, me ... he didn't know anything about it. And when this mess is over, if he [the Chief] wants my badge, well, he can have that too."
"No wonder they call him Dirty Harry. Always get the shit-end of the stick."
"The City of San Francisco does not pay criminals not to commit crimes. Instead, we pay a police department."
"Just go where you're told, do what you're told, play it straight down the line ... Nothing cute, nothing fancy. Just pay the ransom money and report back here."
"Mayor: All right, let's have it."
"Insp. Harry Callahan: Have what?"
