• Yaeger : If you don't mind a little advice from an old hand down here. If I were you, I'd get up in front of that committee and tell them everything you know.

  Jordan Boyle : Mentioning you?

  Yaeger : Sure. Mention me. I haven't done anything. Neither have you. It's an innocuous business deal. But if you let them have their way, they'll build a case on innuendo that'll make you look like Dillinger. What have you got to hide? Nothing.

• Jordan Boyle : [looking over the drawings of the proposed development]  This is laid out in complete detail like Hitler did in Mein Kampf. It's a city. A whole stinking city!

  Yaeger : Well, I guess so. Big oaks from little acorns grow and all that. But it's ten years away if it ever happens.

  Jordan Boyle : What are they planning to call it, the Big M? Muscle Junction? Syndicate City?

  Yaeger : Really, Jordan, that's comic book talk.

• Jordan Boyle : What you need is a good laugh, and I'm just the guy to give it to you. Collie Ford.

  Senator Hays Stowe : [Distractedly]  That's right. Collie Ford. What did you learn?

  Jordan Boyle : Well, it turns out the article isn't about you at all. Meet public enemy number one, me, Machine Gun Boyle!

  [Stowe's face is blank, no response] 

  Jordan Boyle : You don't seem to think that's very funny.
