Quotes 

• Captain Bennet : He let the killers in himself? Why would he do a thing like that?

  Bullitt : I'm waiting to ask him.

  Captain Bennet : What about the setup? What do you make of that?

  Bullitt : Shotgun and a backup man. Professionals.

• Captain Bennet : Albert Edward Renick, used car salesman, Chicago.

  Chalmers : Who's Renick?

  Bullitt : He was the man who was shot at the Hotel Daniels. You sent us to guard the wrong man, Mr. Chalmers.

• Bullitt : [revealing Johnny Ross' death]  I've got him downstairs, under a John Doe.

  Baker : [stunned]  You are sick. Smuggling a dead man out of a hospital, and now two men killed who may have had nothing to do with it?

  Bullitt : The man I was chasing killed Ross.

  Captain Bennet : How do you know? Did you see him?

  Bullitt : Yes. He tried to nail me with a shotgun, a Winchester pump.

  Baker : The radio report said the two men were burned beyond recognition. Now all he's got are two dead men. It would never hold up in court.

• Captain Bennet : Play it by the book from now on.

  Bullitt : Does Chalmers run the case, or do I?

  Captain Bennet : All I'm interested in is results. Do whatever you think is best. I'll try to back you up.
