'Pick a contract...any contract!'

'Negotiations have reached an impasse, legal recommends we resort to violence.'

'Miss Finch, find out what she does over there and offer her twice as much to do it over here.'

'Maybe you should reconsider those place cards, Ms Harris?' (Negotiation talks/Good Guys/Bad Guys)

"Already sold your soul to the company? Listen, I'll have my people talk to their people."

"Have your people call my people."

"Let me get this, but keep in mind that you'll pay for it in other, more subtle ways later on."

"Finally we have something in common...mutual distrust."

"Then he slammed the door on me!" "Not the closing you were hoping for."

'Was my salary expectation a bit too high?'

'Credit being what it is, I'm sure you won't mind if we see your 200,000 cattle first...'

'You've got just 2 minutes to pack then you are on OUR time and I'm going to start charging you rent!'

"And keep in mind that the only stupid question is the one that isn't asked. Discussion?"

"Just to get the negotiations off on the right foot, I don't intent to concede anything."

"Your interest in the salary makes me wonder how 'self-motivated' you really are."
