Quotes 

• Thomas Vlassenroot : [gives his gun to Pierre, his hostage]  Here, take this gift. I'm too tired to hold it. I'm tired.

• Thomas Vlassenroot : What will you tell your husband?

  Dominique Servet : Whatever I want.

• Dominique Servet : Why do you ask so many questions? Just trust me.

  Thomas Vlassenroot : I've learned there are people you shouldn't trust and people you must obey. A traitor or a friend. That's all.

• Thomas Vlassenroot : Looks pretty tame.

  Amerio : Yeah, he doesn't bite. The other one, she's a real bitch. I would have locked her in there with five or six of her clients. I'm sure that in half an hour, she'd be singing "La Marseillaise" in Egyptian.

• Thomas Vlassenroot : Be careful. Don't be reckless. Getting arrested would open a real can of worms. I'm problematic. No papers, foreigner, deserter, kidnapper, murderer.

• Thomas Vlassenroot : I've been wounded twice. When my friends came to the hospital to see me, if they stayed standing, I thought I was very sick and the doctor must have said not to stay too long. When they sat on chairs, I figured I was sick but nothing too bad. When they sat on the bed, I knew I was okay. When you're ill, you start to think.

  Dominique Servet : [sits on Thomas' bed]  Are you okay now?

• Thomas Vlassenroot : I beat my dog, though, which was a bad sign.

• Thomas Vlassenroot : I nearly bought a bird when I arrived. I would have given it to you.

  Dominique Servet : What kind?

  Thomas Vlassenroot : A canary. What would you have done if I'd shown up with a canary in a cage?

  Dominique Servet : I would have thanked you.

  Thomas Vlassenroot : If I had been caught, I'd have been the killer with a canary.

• Thomas Vlassenroot : I want to stay alive - and I'm dying! And I know it. All the killing, I don't want anymore. No more! I want to rest. To sleep in my own bed.

• Thomas Vlassenroot : Me, I like life. Kids. Money. The game. Dance. Roses. My mother. I love dogs! Women who smoke. Women who don't. I love living. Period. That's all.
