Quotes 

  • Lee Morgan : Well, it's time you got wise to yourself. Around this town the only reason friends pat you on the back is to find an easy place to break it!

    Johnny Blake : Yeah. You're a friend, aren't you?

    Lee Morgan : Well, I guess you're dumb enough to think so.

  • Johnny Blake : I don't like guys who put their hands on me.

  • Johnny Blake : What are you afraid of?

    Louie Vinci : I don't like the way your face is fastened on.

    Johnny Blake : I'll be down tomorrow morning and give you a chance to change it.

  • Johnny Blake : You like me pretty well. Well, that goes both ways. If women and home life had been in my line, I'd have fallen for you a long time ago.

    Lee Morgan : That would have been kind of nice, wouldn't it?

    Johnny Blake : Yeah. Until you went crazy being married to a man who was never home.

    Lee Morgan : Sort of wondering if it was an optical illusion.

    Johnny Blake : Yeah. It isn't in the cards.

    Lee Morgan : And you can't beat the cards, can you?

    Johnny Blake : No.

  • Lee Morgan : I tried to take you in with me. It sort of turned out better to toss it to the wolves, didn't it?

    Johnny Blake : Well, I thought they'd let you keep running your end of it.

    Lee Morgan : I guess that wasn't poetry about friends finding an easy place to break your back!

  • Al Kruger : Oh, we don't believe in letting the bank handle our records.

    Johnny Blake : Yeah, I noticed that.

  • Johnny Blake : What's the matter? Did you hurt your ears?

  • Mr. Thorndyke : Why did you try to take over the job?

    Johnny Blake : I didn't try and take it over, I took it over.

  • Lee Morgan : I'll wait for you.

    Johnny Blake : You'll have to wait too long.

  • Lee Morgan : You're a funny fella, Johnny. When you come out of your shell, you're really human.

    Johnny Blake : Well, I don't like to see decent people pushed around.

  • Johnny Blake : But I didn't get much out of you the last time I gave you a going-over.

    Al Kruger : You came close to it.

    Johnny Blake : I wish I'd known it then. You'd have got some more. I wanted to get you on that rap.

  • Johnny Blake : I just want to thank you for the kick in the teeth.

  • Al Kruger : Not bad for one week's take on pinball games.

    Johnny Blake : I wouldn't cry about it.

  • Johnny Blake : Hello Mac. Did you nail 'em?

    Capt. Dan 'Mac' McLaren : Yep.

    Johnny Blake : Well, that's that.

    Capt. Dan 'Mac' McLaren : Who got you, Fenner?

    Johnny Blake : Yep. You check the bullets he put into me with those that killed Bryant and Kruger. They're all from his gun.

    Capt. Dan 'Mac' McLaren : You didn't miss a bet, did ya?

    Johnny Blake : One. I was wrong about that glass o' beer. But we've had lots of 'em.

    Capt. Dan 'Mac' McLaren : We'll be having a lot more, Johnny, I'm taking you to the hospital.

    Johnny Blake : That won't do any good. Keep kickin' 'em into line, Mac.

    Capt. Dan 'Mac' McLaren : I will Johnny.

    Johnny Blake : I like to think that when those mugs pass a policeman, they'll keep on tippin' their hats.

    [dies] 

  • Johnny Blake : Say, waiter, some bourbon and ginger ale.

  • Johnny Blake : I've never seen it fail. Whenever mugs get into a jam, the first thing they do is they start knifing each other.

  • Johnny Blake : Any money I'd make would be coming out of your pocket. And I don't take any money away from women. Not me.

  • Crail - Ex Con : I see where they cut the bigshot detective down to size. Sure must be tough not to be able to kick the boys around anymore and make them tip their hats to ya.

    Johnny Blake : Yeah, but they still do.

    Crail - Ex Con : To a Bronx flatfoot?

    Johnny Blake : [kicks and punches Crail to the ground]  Yeah. And as long as I'm part of the force, they'll keep on tipping their hats. Remember it next time.

  • Johnny Blake : They don't believe in kicking the rats into line anymore. Nowadays, you're supposed to kiss them and tuck them in.

  • Lee Morgan : I'm sorry you got kicked out, Johnny. It's going to be kind of tough to start into a new game after all these years.

    Johnny Blake : Yeah, I suppose so.

    Lee Morgan : What are you gonna do?

    Johnny Blake : I will take in the fights. They got a good card on tonight.

    Lee Morgan : Don't hurt your knuckles.

  • Johnny Blake : You're aces, Lee.

    Lee Morgan : I'll remember that, Johnny.

  • Johnny Blake : Seven million people in this town and all of them looking for easy money. You just offer them 600-for-1, and this thing will spread like a four-alarm fire. And they won't be buying one number, they'll be picking four or five. But you want to control the winning number, you can pay off on racetrack bets and manipulate the totals. All it needs is organization. Get a million people in this town buying numbers and this one racket will clean up 300 million a year. Why, it's a cinch! It's easy!

  • Mr. Hollister : I wish I'd known when you quit. I'd have liked to have had you in the banking business.

    Johnny Blake : Oh, there isn't enough money in it.
