Quotes 

• Moburg : Maybe I can interest you gentlemen in something else.

  Paul Kemp : Like what? Death?

  Moburg : Like the most powerful drug in the history of narcotics. I'm not at liberty to discuss or disclose; all I can tell you is: this stuff is so powerful, they give it to communists.

  Paul Kemp : Who does?

  Moburg : The FBI.

  Sala : Why would the FBI get communists high?

  Moburg : That I can't help you with.

• Moburg : This country was built on genocide and slavery. We killed all the black guys over here and then we shipped in new black guys of our own. And then we brought in Jesus like a bar of soap.

• Moburg : You can't fire me, you owe me money, and you better pay it or I'll go to the roof and turn this place into an insurance claim.

• Moburg : [being examined]  Is it Clap?

  Paul Kemp : [grimacing]  A standing ovation.

• Moburg : Two of the best scoops you ever had came out of my brain and you'd better moderate your language or I'll go elsewhere.

  Lotterman : Elsewhere where? You couldn't get work as a fly repellent. You're worthless, Moburg. The last onion in the jar.

• Moburg : [to Lotterman]  Why don't you go die a slow and agonizingly painful death?
