■ Jack Bauer: (to President Logan) Mr. Logan, I’m not going to torture you. But you are going to tell me what I want to know. Or so help me God… I will kill you. A year and a half ago I was warned that my life was in danger by someone within the government. I was told the only way I could stay alive was to create the illusion that I was dead. I was forced to deceive people that I loved. My only daughter will never forgive me. As I see the depth of your corruption unfold, I have no doubt that you are that source of danger. David Palmer was a great man, and he was a great president. But he was also my friend. He tried to warn me about you, and now he is dead. Other people tried to help me, and they are dead too. So, Mr. Logan, I hope you understand… I have absolutely nothing to lose. You are going to be held accountable for your part of everything that happened today. You are not going to be able to hide behind the presidency. Right here, right now, you are going to face justice! And make no mistake about this—this is personal. And if you think for a second that I am scared to put a bullet in your brain…you don’t know me. I am going to ask you one last time. Who are your co-conspirators? You have until the count of three, or I will kill you.
First time I heard this it brought tears to my eyes.
Jack Bauer: The Sunday before you killed my wife, Teri and I went to the boardwalk in Venice just watching all the rollerbladers and musicians, laughing at the crazy people, spending time together. And Teri sees this snow-cone stand. She giggles like a kid. She takes off running, she wants to get in line, she wants one. I remember I was watching her, I was just… I couldn’t help myself. When I look up at her she’s talking to this old lady in line behind her and the two of them are laughing, and I’m thinking to myself, How the hell does she do that? How does she strike up a conversation with an absolute stranger? And they just start laughing. Like they’d been friends forever. That’s a gift. I remember thinking, God, I wish I could do that. But I can’t. That was Teri. My wife. That’s what you took from this world, Nina. That’s what you took from me, and my daughter. I just wanted you to know that
LoL. Flyman I like that one dude. And oh how true it is.
I think Id talk if Jack said this to me.
Jack Bauer: (to Walt Cummings) I’m done talking with you, you understand me? You’ve read my file. The first thing I’m going to do is take out your right eye, and then I’m gonna move over and take out your left, and then I’m going to cut you. I’m gonna keep cutting you until you give me the information that I need. Do you understand me? So for the last time, where is the nerve gas?
“MOVE YOUR ASS BEFORE I BREAK MY FOOT OFF IN IT” Basic Training, Drill Instructor, Lackland AFB, another one he always said, “GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS” same guy, always wanted to run into that guy after basic but never did, fortunately for me he was usually yelling at someone else.
Speaking of colorful military quotes, pretty much everything R. Lee Ermey says as drill instructor in Full Metal Jacket is pure gold. Figures he’s a former Marine, no actor could’ve nailed that part like he did.

He was a former Marine Drill Instructor so that part was perfect and easy for him.
