- Danny Ocean: [Answering the phone] Hello, this is a recording. You've dialed the right number; now hang up and don't do it again.
- Danny Ocean: Why waste those cute little tricks that the Army taught us just because it's sort of peaceful now.
- Mrs. Restes: You'll miss my wedding!
- Jimmy Foster: Mother, I have never missed one of your weddings.
- Mrs. Restes: Yes, you did. My first one.
- Jimmy Foster: I made a cardinal rule: never to answer the 'phone in December.
- Massuese: That's crazy. Why?
- Jimmy Foster: Because one December, every time I picked up the phone they sent me out into the snow to play with my friends. That was at the Bulge.
- Jimmy Foster: [speaking on the phone] Speaking of finances. Could you let me have some more.
- Mrs. Restes: More? More what?
- Jimmy Foster: Money. M-O-N-Y.
- Sam Harmon: "E"
- Jimmy Foster: M-O-N-*E*-Y
- Vince Massler: I can't do it, boys. I've got my wife to think of.
- Danny Ocean: Think of her rich.
- Vince Massler: Think of me dead.
- Josh Howard: Look Vince - the brave ones don't come home. You stay scared.
- Vince Massler: Yeah. You were always one of those guys who didn't want any brave ones on patrol with you, weren't you?
- Josh Howard: It's simple enough - in my book "brave" rhymes with "stupid" and it still does.
- Danny Ocean: [to Jimmy as he is getting a massage from a beautiful masseuse] If you're not careful, buddy boy, she'll rub you out.
- Duke Santos: It's not a zircon, it's a diamond; a big diamond. You don't think it's too big, do you? Your mother has excellent taste.
- Jimmy Foster: [Sarcastically] Has she?
- Duke Santos: [to Danny and Sam] I know you won't try anything cute. Fifty percent of something is better than one hundred percent of nothin'.
- Beatrice Ocean: There's only one thing you love, Danny: that's danger. Cliffhanging. You could never love a woman like you love danger.
- Mrs. Restes: [speaking of her son] He met a jiggly little number who was Vegas-bound.
- Adele Ekstrom: "Jiggly little number" isn't exactly how I would describe Danny Ocean... More like a well-mannered shark.
- Mrs. Restes: Is he?
- Beatrice Ocean: [to Sam Harmon] I'll consider mistress, plaything, toy for a night - but I refuse to be your mother. That's out!
- Beatrice Ocean: [to Danny Ocean] Oh, Danny, what a prize you are. The only husband in the world who'd proposition his own wife.
- Danny Ocean: Well, I married you once and it didn't work out too well, so what's wrong with a little hey-hey?
- Beatrice Ocean: Nothing... Nothing at all. I'd never knock it as long as there was a little love involved.
- Danny Ocean: You mean there isn't.
- Beatrice Ocean: On your part, not much.
- Beatrice Ocean: [to Sam about her marriage with Danny] We didn't have a home, Sam. We had a floating crap game.
- [Danny and Sam attempt to disguise themselves by blackening their faces]
- Danny Ocean: [Josh starts chuckling] What's so funny?
- Josh Howard: I knew this color would come in handy one day.
- Sam Harmon: Hey, Josh...
- Josh Howard: Yeah?
- Sam Harmon: How do you get this stuff off?
- Josh Howard: Well, I usually...
- [stops mid-sentence, then laughs sarcastically]
- 'Curly' Steffens: You're not gonna make yourself popular knocking Danny.
- Spyros Acebos: Who's knocking him? I love him. I respect talent. All I'm asking is he should me a little love.
- 'Curly' Steffens: Too tough. Don't ask.
- Vince Massler: If it's so fool-proof, why hasn't somebody done it yet?
- Danny Ocean: Same reason nobody's gone to the moon yet - no equipment.
- Jimmy Foster: And we're equipped.
- Sam Harmon: The odds are always with the house.
- [slams hand on pool table]
- Sam Harmon: With the house!
- Tipsy Girl: [Obviously very tipsy] I thought he said i was a lady's drink. I think he meant a lady horse.
- Passerby: [Speaks to someone on the TV news crew after robbery] Say , do me a favor. If you're going to interview people, pick elderly couples. Some of the others don't always belong together.
- Danny Ocean: Going down.
- Lift attendant: Going down.
- Danny Ocean: Where they serve the drinks.
- Lift attendant: To the bar.
- [a doctor checks Bergdorf's chest x-ray apprehensively]
- Anthony Bergdorf: Give it to me straight Doc. Is this the big casino?
- Title Card: [Closing scene, the Sands hotel performers sign reads: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, Joey Bishop]
- Jimmy Foster: [Danny's former girlfriend has just violently left Danny's apartment] It's a good thing for you she doesn't pack a knife!
- Sam Harmon: How do you know she doesn't?
- Loudmouth at Burlesque: Honey Face, I'd like to wrap you up, take you home, and spread you on my waffle!
- Woman stopped at roadblock: Is it true somebody stole millions of dollars?
- Roadblock Deputy: Oh yes, ma'am. But there's still some left.
- Sam Harmon: The odds are always with the house!
- [slams hand on pool table]
- Sam Harmon: with the house!
