Quotes 

• Paul Kersey : Nothing to do but cut and run, huh? What else? What about the old American social custom of self-defense? If the police don't defend us, maybe we ought to do it ourselves.

  Jack Toby : We're not pioneers anymore, Dad.

  Paul Kersey : What are we, Jack?

  Jack Toby : What do you mean?

  Paul Kersey : I mean, if we're not pioneers, what have we become? What do you call people who, when they're faced with a condition or fear, do nothing about it. They just run and hide?

  Jack Toby : Civilized?

  Paul Kersey : No.

• Jack Toby : We gotta let the cops handle this, Dad!

  Paul Kersey : Yeah?

  [squint] 

  Paul Kersey : Well, what if the cops can't handle this, Jack?
