  [after Frank looks inside the envelope containing the cash, he puts it back in the briefcase with the cocaine and closes it] 

  Frank Lopez : I'm sorry about your friend, Tony. If people would do business the right way, they'd be no fuck-ups like this. Don't think I don't appreciate the gesture. You're gonna find if you stay loyal in this business, you're gonna move up. You're gonna move up fast!

• Frank Lopez : I'm sorry about your friend, Tony. If people would do business the right way, there'd be no fuck-ups like this. Don't think I don't appreciate the gesture. You're gonna find, you stay loyal in this business, you're gonna move up. You're gonna move up fast. And you'll find out your biggest problem is not bringing in the stuff, but what to do with all the fucking cash!

  Tony Montana : I hope I have that problem someday.

• Frank Lopez : Where the hell's Elvira? It's late. Go find her, will you? Jesus! Fucking broad. She spends half her life dressing, the other half undressing.
