Gran Torino Quotes

Sue Lor:
All the people in this house are very traditional. Number one: never touch a Hmong person on the head. Not even a child. The Hmong people believe that the soul resides on the head, so don't do that.
Walt Kowalski:
Well... Sounds dumb, but fine.
Sue Lor:
Yeah, and a lot of Hmong people consider looking someone in the eye to be very rude! That's why they look away when you look at them.
Walt Kowalski:
Yeah. Anything else?
Sue Lor:
Yeah... some Hmong people tend to smile or grin, when they're yelled at. It's a cultural thing, it expresses embarrassment or insecurity. It's not that they're laughing at you or anything.
Walt Kowalski:
Right, you people are nuts.

Walt Kowalski:
[to Thao] Have some respect, zipperhead. We're in mourning here.

Walt Kowalski:
You got your whole life ahead of you, but for me, I finish things.

Father Janovich:
[eulogizing Walt] Walt Kowalski once said to me that I knew nothing about life or death, because I was an over-educated, 27-year-old virgin who held the hand of superstitious old women and promised them eternity. [the congregation chuckles politely and somberly]
Father Janovich:
Walt definitely had no problem calling it like he saw it. But he was right. I knew really nothing about life or death, until I got to know Walt... and boy, did I learn.

Lawyer:
[reading from Walt's will] And I'd like to leave my 1972 Gran Torino to... [the lawyer pauses and looks up at Ashley, who smiles expectantly]
Lawyer:
...my friend... Thao Vang Lor. On the condition that you don't chop-top the roof like one of those beaners, don't paint any idiotic flames on it like some white trash hillbilly, and don't put a big, gay spoiler on the rear end like you see on all the other zipperheads' cars. It just looks like hell. If you can refrain from doing any of that... it's yours.

Walt Kowalski:
Now you just gotta learn how guys talk. You just listen to the way Martin and I banter it back and forth. You OK? You're ready?
Thao Vang Lor:
Sir!
Walt Kowalski:
Alright let's go in...
Barber Martin:
Perfect! A Polak and AND a Chink!
Walt Kowalski:
How ya doing Martin, you crazy Italian prick?
Barber Martin:
Walts! You cheap bastard! I should have known you'd come in, I was having such a pleasant day!
Walt Kowalski:
What'd you do? You ruse some poor blind guy out of his money? Gave him the wrong change?
Barber Martin:
Who's the Nip?
Walt Kowalski:
Ohh... He's a pussy kid from next door. I'm trying to man him up a little bit... You see kid, now that's how guys talk to one another.
Thao Vang Lor:
They do?
Barber Martin:
What, you got shit on your ribs?
Walt Kowalski:
Now you go out and come back in and talk to him like a man, like a REAL man. Come on! Get your ass outta here! Come on back now. [to Martin]
Walt Kowalski:
Sorry about this.
Thao Vang Lor:
What's up ya old Italian prick?
Barber Martin:
[pointing rifle at Thao] Get out of my shop before I blow your head off, you goddamn dick sucker! Go!
Walt Kowalski:
Jezus Christ, Holy Shit! Hehe. Take it easy, take it easy! [to Thao]
Walt Kowalski:
What the hell are you doing? Have you lost your mind?
Thao Vang Lor:
But that's what you said. That's what you said men say.
Walt Kowalski:
You don't just come in and insult the man in his own shop! You just don't do that. What happens if you meet some stranger? You get the wrong one, he's gonna blow your gook head right off!
Thao Vang Lor:
What should I have said then?
Barber Martin:
Well... why don't you start with... eeehm... Hi or Hello...
Walt Kowalski:
Yeah, just come in and say... eeeehm... Sir, I'd like a haircut if you have the time.
Barber Martin:
Yeah, be polite, but don't kiss ass.
Walt Kowalski:
In fact you could talk about a construction job you just came from and bitch about your girlfriend and your car.
Barber Martin:
eeeehm... Son of a bitch, I just got my brakes fixed and eeehmm those son of bitches really nailed me, I mean they screwed me right in the ass!
Walt Kowalski:
Yeah, don't swear AT the guy, just talk about people who are not in the room... eeeh... you could talk about your boss... eeeh... making you work extra time when there is bowling night.
Barber Martin:
Right, or... eeeh... my old lady bitches for two goddamn hours about how... eeeeh... they don't take expired coupons at the grocery stores. And the minute I turn on the fucking game, she starts crying how we never talk!
