Quotes:
|
-
Hannibal Lecter: Do you think he visualizes scenarios, exchanges... f**king?
Clarice Starling: That doesn't interest me, Doctor, and frankly, it's... it's the sort of thing that Miggs would say.
Hannibal Lecter: Not anymore.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Amputate a man's leg and he can still feel it tickling. Tell me mum, when your little girl is on the slab, where will it tickle you?
-
Murray: Is it true what they're sayin', he's some kinda vampire?
Clarice Starling: They don't have a name for what he is.
-
Hannibal Lecter: Now then, tell me. What did Miggs say to you? Multiple Miggs in the next cell. He hissed at you. What did he say?
Clarice Starling: He said, "I can smell your c**t."
Hannibal Lecter: I see. I myself cannot. You use Evian skin cream, and sometimes your wear L'Air du Temps, but not today.
-
Jack Crawford: Believe me, you don't want Hannibal Lecter inside your head.
