Quotes

Charlie Kramer: What is it, exactly, that you're asking me to do here?
Randolph Ludwin: Look. All I'm saying is, you might want to revisit the parameters that you have the bird set at. That's all.
Charlie Kramer: I'm not going to put the Watchbirds on hair-triggers. I mean, there's no way! We have to err on the side of caution.
Randolph Ludwin: But every program needs to be tweaked. You said so yourself.
Charlie Kramer: Well, this is not a program. This is a killing machine.
