David: "Do you seriously want to drive to Baghdad?"
Efraim: "David, we're gun runners. Let's go run some guns."

Newt: "Hear that? It's the maze, changing. It changes every night.
Thomas: How is that even possible?"
Newt: "You can ask the people who put us in here, if you ever meet the bastards. Listen the truth is... The Runners are the only ones who really know what's out there. They are the strongest and the fastest of us all. And it's a good thing, too... Because if they don't make it back before those doors close... Then they are stuck out there for the night. And no one has ever survived a night in the maze."
Thomas: "What happens to them?"
Newt: "Well, we call 'em Grievers. Of course, no one's ever seen one and lived to tell about it. But they're out there."

"Men, all this stuff you've heard about America not wanting to fight, wanting to stay out of the war, is a lot of horse dung. Americans traditionally love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle. When you were kids, you all admired the champion marble shooter, the fastest runner, big league ball players, the toughest boxers. Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn't give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed. That's why Americans have never lost, and will never lose a war... because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans."

"Alright, listen up! The guys we're after are professional runners. They like speed and are guaranteed to go down the hardest possible way so make sure you've got your thunderwear on. We find 'em, we take 'em as a team and we bring 'em back. And above all else we don't ever, ever let them get into cars."

Mike Jobber: "Well your brother's done a runner."
Reggie Kray: "Nah... he's just genuinely disappointed with you, that's all."

"The problem with gun runners going to war, is that there is no shortage of ammunition."

Scarlett: "But you are a blockade runner."
Rhett Butler: "For profit, and profit only."
Scarlett: "Are you tryin' to tell me you don't believe in the cause?"
Rhett Butler: "I believe in Rhett Butler, he's the only cause I know."
