Quotes 

  • Andre Baptiste Sr. : They say that I am the lord of war, but perhaps it is you.

    Yuri Orlov : I believe it's "warlord."

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : Thank you, but I prefer it my way.

  • Yuri Orlov : [when Andre suddenly shoots a subordinate with the sample gun from the main table in the center of his palace]  WHY'D YOU DO THAT?

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : What did you say?

    [aims at Yuri] 

    Yuri Orlov : [pulls himself together]  Well, now you're gonna have to buy it. It's a used gun!

    [pulls it out of Andre's hand. Andre's bodyguards draw on him] 

    Yuri Orlov : How can I sell a used gun?

    [Yuri huffs and busies himself wiping and polishing it] 

  • Andre Baptiste Sr. : Welcome to Democracy!

    Yuri Orlov : Democracy? What have you been drinking Andy?

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : Heh, you have not seen the news. You know, they accuse me of rigging elections. But after this -

    [holds up a newspaper with the headline "U.S. Supreme Court Reverses Recount Ruling"] 

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : - with your Florida and your Supreme Court of Kangaroos, now, the U.S. will shut up forever!

    [laughs] 

  • Andre Baptiste Sr. : [to Yuri about his country's youth]  Personally, I blame MTV.

  • Andre Baptiste Sr. : [about his child soldiers]  I can see what you are thinking. But we need every man we can get.

    Yuri Orlov : Even if they're not men?

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : A bullet from a 14-year-old is just as effective as one from a 40-year-old. Often more effective.

  • Yuri Orlov : [Andre Sr. and Andre Jr. show up unannounced at Yuri's home]  What the fuck are you doing here?

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : [Hugs Yuri]  We're here for peace talks at the United Nations.

    Yuri Orlov : So at the same time you'd drop in on your arms dealer?

    Yuri Orlov : We began to wonder where you went. You became a hard man to get a hold of, all of a sudden. It is a shame, my son and I were hoping to do some shopping while we are here in New York. These peace talks have made it very hard for us to supply arms, so it requires a man of your rare ingenuity.

    Yuri Orlov : I can't help you, I'm sorry.

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : [hands Yuri a large diamond stone]  I understand, but due to our current situation, we are prepared to be unusually generous.

    Andre Baptiste Jr. : You still haven't brought me the gun of Rambo.

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : I will see you soon "Lord of War".

  • Andre Baptiste Sr. : I'm not going to pay your asking price we're not rich people besides the market is already flooded with your Kalashnikovs, do you realize in some parts of my country you can get one for the price of a chicken?

    Yuri Orlov : But you can't look at the unitary price: you forget ancillary costs, end user certificates needs to be forged and notarized, shell companies set up, insurance purchase pilots and crews need to be hired, not to mention the bribes. You can't get a nut and bolt out of the eastern bloc without a bribe there's one for the nut another for the bolt, this isn't an inexpensive proposition

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : I'm going to pay you in either timber or diamond stones.

    Yuri Orlov : I'll take the diamonds because it's too hard to fit a tree trunk in my hand luggage. I know your plan for the new offensive, if you can delay a week, I can get you armored personnel carriers, they'd greatly reduce your casualties and give you a significant strategic advantage.

  • Yuri Orlov : [Yuri walks into his hotel room and sees a beaten, tied and gagged Simeon Weisz, all caused by Andre Sr. and Andre Jr.,]  What is this?

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : [Referring to Simeon Weisz]  A gift, he was trying to replace you

    Simeon Weisz : [to Andre Sr. and Yuri Andre Jr. ungags Simeon]  I'm not here to supply his enemies, I'm here to supply his friends

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : He killed your blood: your uncle, when he tried to kill you

    Yuri Orlov : [as Andre Sr. hands Yuri a gun]  No

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : No? You take part to have men killed but you don't want to do it yourself

    Yuri Orlov : [Andre Sr. Helps Yuri take aim the gun at Simeon's head]  No

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : [Yuri looks away as Andre Sr. helps Yuri pull the trigger]  This will be a bonding experience

  • Andre Baptiste Sr. : [Opening a crate full of guns, referring to the authorities]  How do you do this? When their always watching all of my airspace?

    Yuri Orlov : Where there's a will, there's a weapon. Where's my fucking money?

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : When it is delivered

    Yuri Orlov : It is delivered

    Andre Baptiste Sr. : This is not for me

  • Andre Baptiste Sr. : [sarcastically, repeated line to Yuri when Yuri tries to correct his phrasing]  thank you but I prefer it my way
