Quotes 

• Kores Botha : [to Will]  You do this for me or I'll throw your fucking daughter off the roof.

  [dryly] 

  Kores Botha : I hear it's heaven up there.

  Kores Botha : [on the pearl]  Let it burn.

• Kores Botha : Light a man's house on fire, and you find out what he truly loves.

• Kores Botha : Now force the fire up. Open the elevator shaft air vents and feed it with fresh oxygen. Let it burn.

  Skinny Hacker : [inputting the computer commands]  Ladies and gentlemen, I give you a $6.5 billion chimney.

• Zhao Long Ji : Long time, Botha.

  Kores Botha : Yeah. Did you miss me? I see you met my associate. Surprise, surprise.

  Zhao Long Ji : Why don't you just shoot me and take it?

  Kores Botha : You think I'm stupid, huh? You know I can't do that. 'Cause the men I work for will kill me if I don't get it back for them. You should've paid me and been done with it. But no. Clever boys like you always think you can be clever. So how's this for clever? I'm gonna take you and your drive and your helicopter. And I'm going to make you watch as your building burns to ash, and there's nothing you can do about it.

• Kores Botha : All I care about is what my business partner is holding behind those doors. And you're going to get it for me.

  Will Sawyer : Listen to me. The only way those doors open is from the inside, or the fire alarm on this floor triggers it, but that can't happen because you took the entire system offline.

  Kores Botha : Is that so? Well, let me tell you something. Every man has a weakness. It's easy to find. Once you know what he loves, you have it. Zhao, he loves this building. And you, your weakness is your family. So now we're going to find out how much you love your family, Will.

  Will Sawyer : Listen to me. Opening those doors from this floor can't be done.

  Kores Botha : Anything can be done with the proper motivation.
