Memorable quotes from Gran Torino

"How many swamp rats can you fit in one room?"
"Oh, I've got one. A Mexican, a Jew, and a colored guy walk into a bar. The bartender looks up and says, "Get the fuck out of here.""
"Get up. Get off my lawn! [aiming his M1 Garand rifle]"
"God, I've got more in common with these gooks than I do with my own spoiled-rotten family. Jesus. Happy birthday."
"(While holding a gangster he had just badly beaten at gunpoint) Alright, here's the deal: You stay away from Thao, understand? You tell your friends to stay away from Thao. And if they don't listen to you, you tell 'em you don't wanna see them anymore. That's it. Got it? (The gangster doesn't respond) I'll take that as a yes, 'cause if I have to come back here, it's gonna get fucking ugly."
"What are all you fish heads looking at anyway?"
"Duke: The fuck you lookin' at old man?"
"Walt Kowalski: Ever notice how you come across somebody once in a while you shouldn't have fucked with? (spits on the ground) That's me."
