Alan Feinstein: Mark Taylor

Quotes 

• Jack : [Preparing to race Mark and admiring his car]  So this is the Dagger DX. I was beginning to think it only existed in your dreams.

  Mark Taylor : You'll find out it's for real soon enough. You still have any doubts, maybe we should up the stakes?

  Jack : Nah, fifty grand is enough. I hate to see a grown man cry!

• Mark Taylor : [Prior to racing]  3.8 miles, you think you can occupy yourself for a minute and a half?

  Stacy : Only if you promise to come back in one piece.

  Mark Taylor : I'm the man with a thousand lives!

  Stacy : Just as long as you save ONE of them for me!

  Mark Taylor : I'll do better than that - I'll save them all!

• Mark Taylor : [after Stacy is runover during a race]  Jack, I'll take care of it. Go home, get drunk, I don't care! Just get out of here, keep your mouth shut! This didn't happen - TONIGHT DIDN'T HAPPEN!

• Jack : Mark, Stacy is on the critical list! If she dies, we're accessories to murder! Now we gotta do something about this, we gotta deal with this thing before it's too late!

  Mark Taylor : Calm down! Just take a look around - everything you see, I own, and a whole lot more. Now you think I got all this by not taking care of little details? Believe me, it cost, but our alibi is covered.

  Jack : Tell that to Stacy's father - why didn't you say he's a cop?

  Mark Taylor : Jack, I have to buy other people. But I count on friends like you. Listen to me! You're overreacting. You're ready to be crucified on a billboard on Sunset Boulevard! Now all confessing is going to do is drastically lower both our lifestyles, it is not going to help Stacy!

  Jack : I guess you're right.

  Mark Taylor : Remember that the next time you start to panic!

• Mark Taylor : [Admiring KITT]  Nice lines. Is it fast?

  Michael Knight : Yeah. I'd say it's about the fastest thing on four wheels!

  Mark Taylor : Oh! Now, that's quite a boast Mr Knight!

  Michael Knight : Why don't you try me? I mean you are the Number 1 guy at Racer's Edge aren't you?

  Mark Taylor : That's true. I'm also pretty busy, I got my boys to think about.

  [Loudly as his team exits the locker room] 

  Mark Taylor : We're gonna win the Superbowl this year!

  [Ponders for a minute] 

  Mark Taylor : I tell ya what, our Number 2 man can give you quite a race.

  Michael Knight : Well, I gotta start somewhere! Why not?

  Mark Taylor : Of course, Jack won't run for fun - fifty thousand is his normal wager. Still interested?

  Michael Knight : No, no, I'm excited! Time and place?

  Mark Taylor : 5pm, club track.

  Michael Knight : I'll be there.

  Mark Taylor : Beat him, and maybe I'll give you a run myself.

  Michael Knight : I'll hold you to it!

• Mark Taylor : [after Jack dies in a car race]  I wonder why we do it.

  Michael Knight : So do I, Mr Taylor. So do I.

• Michael Knight : [after losing KITT in a race]  Take good care of it, huh?

  Mark Taylor : Just be glad your car is the only thing you lost. Push me again and you're history!
