Quotes 

  • [the morning after Bond sleeps with May Day] 

    Max Zorin : You slept well?

  • [Hovering over San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge in their airship]

    Max Zorin : To a KILL!

  • Max Zorin : More. More power. More. Do it!

  • Howe : What have they done?

    Max Zorin : You discharged her, so she and her accomplice came here to kill you. Then they set fire to the office, to conceal the crime but they were trapped in the elevator and perished in the flames.

    Howe : But that means I would have to be...

    Max Zorin : Dead!

    [shoots him] 

    Max Zorin : That's rather neat, Don't you think?

    James Bond : Brilliant. I'm almost speechless with admiration.

    Max Zorin : Intuitive improvisation is the secret of genius.

    James Bond : Herr Doktor Mortner would be proud of his creation.

  • [Zorin is going to kill Bond] 

    James Bond : My department knows I'm here. When I don't report they'll retaliate.

    Max Zorin : If you're the best they've got, they're more likely to try and cover up your embarrassing incompetence.

    James Bond : Don't count on it, Zorin.

    Max Zorin : [laughs]  Ha ha, you amuse me, Mr. Bond.

    James Bond : It's not mutual.

  • [after dropping the tycoon out of the airship] 

    Max Zorin : So, anyone else want to drop out?

  • Scarpine : It's time to flood the fault.

    Bob Conley : But May Day and my men!

    Max Zorin : Yes. A convenient coincidence.

    Bob Conley : Mr. Zorin, those men are LOYAL to you!

    [Scarpine knocks him out] 

  • Max Zorin : Gentlemen, for centuries alchemists tried to make gold from base metals. Today, we make microchips from sillicon, which is common sand; but far better than gold. Now, for several years, we had a profitable partnership, you as manufacturers, while I acquired and passed on to you industrial information that made you competitive, succesful. We are now in the unique position to form an international cartel to control not only production, but distribution of these microchips. There is one obstacle - Sillicon Valley in San Francisco. Over 250 plants, employing thousands of scientists, technicians. This is the heartland of electronic production in the United States - which accounts for, what, 80% - of the world microchip market. I propose to - *end* - the domination of Silicon Valley and leave us in control of that market.

  • Max Zorin : You lost, 007.

    James Bond : [after looking at Tibbett's body]  Killing Tibbett was a mistake.

    Max Zorin : Then I'm about to make that same mistake twice.

  • [Bond is gettting ready to have a horse race with Zorin] 

    James Bond : And what if I'm thrown?

    Max Zorin : Then you lose.

  • James Bond : I take it you ride.

    Max Zorin : I'm happiest in the saddle.

    James Bond : A fellow sportsman. So, what about fishing? Fly-casting?

    Max Zorin : [realizes he's been trapped]  I'm neglecting my other guests. Enjoy yourself, you'll find the young ladies stimulating company.

  • Max Zorin : This will hurt him more than me.

  • Max Zorin : You amuse me, Mr. Bond.

    James Bond : Well, it's not mutual.
