Léon: You wanna be a cleaner?
[passes her a gun and bullets]

Léon: Where?

Stansfield: That’s good, because I take no pleasure in taking life if it’s from a person who doesn’t care about it.”“Mathilda: How are we getting out of here now?
Léon: Leave it to me. We’re checking out.”“Mathilda: I don’t wanna lose you, Leon!”

Mathilda: OK. My family they got shot down by D.E.A. officers because of a drug problem. I left with the greatest guy on earth. He was a hitman, the best in town, but he died this morning. And if you don’t help me, I’ll be dead by tonight.”

“Willie Conway: How old are you?
