The Peacemaker Movie Quotes
Thomas Devoe
Doctor, you can run your charts and your theories all you want. In the field, this is how it works: the good guys, that's us, we chase the bad guys. And they don't wear black hats. They are, however, all alike: they demand power, and respect, and they're willing to pay top dollar to get it. And that is our highly motivated buyer.
Julia Kelly
What about other motivations?
Thomas Devoe
Not important to me.
Julia Kelly
Whether it's important to you or not, there are people out there who don't care about money, who don't give a damn about respect. People who believe the killing of innocent men and women is justified. For them it is about rage, frustration, hatred... they feel pain and they're determined to share it with the world.
Thomas Devoe
Okay, that does me no good. Now let's deal with the facts at hand. 23 hours ago, General Alexander Kodoroff stole ten nuclear warheads.
Julia Kelly
He's just a delivery boy. I'm not afraid of the man who wants ten nuclear weapons, Colonel. I'm terrified of the man who only wants one.

Thomas Devoe
Kodoroff? Alexsander Kodoroff?
Julia Kelly
Yeah... you know him?
Thomas Devoe
Yeah... I know him... Goddamn it. All right, I don't know about these guys, but General Aleksandr Kodoroff doesn't ride around on a nuclear transportation train. Get me NMCC intel please. It's like Ivana Trump on the subway.

Julia Kelly
You will not take action without authorization.
Devoe
What do you think I am, some gung-ho, stupid son of a bitch?
Julia Kelly
No, I don't think you're stupid. I think you're a talented soldier with sloppy impulse control.

Julia Kelly
So do you think he set us up?
Thomas Devoe
Who?
Julia Kelly
Your friend.
Thomas Devoe
No.

How can you be so sure?

Dusan Gavrich
[a tape meant to be played after his bomb explodes]
You will look at what I have done and say, Of course - why not - they are all animals. They have slaughtered each other for centuries. But the truth is, I'm not a monster. I'm a human man - I'm just like you, whether you like it or not. For years, we have tried to live together, until a war was waged on us, on all of us: a war waged by our own leaders. And who supplied the Serb cluster bombs, the Croatian tanks, the Muslim artillery shells that killed our sons and daughters? It was the governments of the West who drew the boundaries of our countries - sometimes in ink, sometimes in blood - the blood of our people. And now you dispatch your peacekeepers to write our destiny again. We can never accept this peace that leaves us with nothing but pain, pain the peacemakers must be made to feel. Their wives, their children, their houses and churches. So now you know, now you must understand. Leave us to find our own destiny. May God have mercy on us all.

[Devoe phones Kodoroff, who is driving a truck loaded with stolen nuclear warheads]
You watched CNN during Desert Storm. You remember all those television shots from the nose cone of the GBU missiles slammin' into those trucks? Remember that picture? How it kept gettin' closer and bigger on the screen... You'd just about see the faces of those drivers and then... Zap! The picture went dead, we didn't get to see what happened next. Well guess what, Alek? You will.

[Devoe wants to take a team into Russia while they know where the bombs are]
The Russians say they are handling it.
Thomas Devoe
The Russians couldn't find snow in the middle of fucking winter. Look, it's this simple. When that satellite is out of range, those nukes are gone.

I'd like to know something. You moved from Lawrence Livermore to the White House. So, first you build the bombs to blow up the entire world, and now you want to save it. Make up your mind: which is it going to be?

[Dr. Taraki finishes disassembling one of the stolen warheards]
Dr. Taraki
It can be activated by a single man, and should deliver a nuclear yield of between one and two kilotons.
Aleksandr Kodoroff
Why is he doing that now?
Vlado Mirich
[transferring the primary assembly into a backpack]
Because that was the deal: one warhead for us, to do with as we wished.
