Waiter: I am the waiter sir.

Anna: He's definitely gonna steal the Codex. I can feel it. I'm not sure when.
Cardinal: Attempt to steal, you mean. The vanity in this man Hudson Hawk! The Vatican has foiled the advances of pirates and terrorists. We will not lie down for some schmuck from New Jersey.

Darwin Mayflower: Yo Flipper! A damsel in distress implies that there is some well-hung Dudly Do-Right galloping up to save you.

Anna: [Upon Hudson Hawk learning she is a nun] It doesn't mean I don't love you.

Hudson Hawk: How am I driving? 1-800-I'm-gonna-fuckin'-die!

Anna: In one day - less than one day of planning, and you did it. You started the week by stealing the Sforza and ended by swiping the Codex. What are your plans for the weekend? Hoisting away the Coliseum? Tell me, did the Devil make you do it, or did Darwin and Minerva Mayflower?
Hudson Hawk: Can't we just go back to the kissing part?

Almond Joy: Almond Joy. Get it? Candy bars. Well, it's better than when we first started out. Our code names were diseases. Do you know what it's like being called Chlamydia for a year?

George Kaplan: Snickers make that list happen. Oh, and Hawk, it's one thing to mess with the Mayflowers, but we're sore lossers. We blow up space shuttles for breakfast. You and your friend Tommy are nothing more than... a late afternoon trisket. Chow.
