Richard Shannon: Carlisle

Quotes 

• [discussing the actions of a counterfeit ring] 

  Carlisle : Did they offer you any money?

  Eric Jason : Yeah, ten thousand dollars. I turned her down. If you guys would have told me this morning...

  Carlisle : We couldn't. We had to take the chance of you giving it back to her.

  Eric Jason : Why? Wasn't that a little risky?

  Carlisle : You're an amateur, Mr. Jason. This is no business for amateurs. If we had let you in on it, you'd have probably overplayed your hand and tipped the whole deal.

  Eric Jason : Well, it looks like you backed the wrong horse.

  Carlisle : Not necessarily. There's still a choice for you. Either you can retire as an amateur, Mr. Jason, or you can take your chances with us - as a professional.
