Read our Review of Repo Men
(after Remy's heart is damaged he tries to sell him on an artificial one) "You are the best repo in this whole town but you have to have a ticker to play the game. Am I wrong? You owe it to your family, you owe it to yourself. "
- Frank,
Repo Men
(selling one of his devices) "For extensive neural injuries I would have to recommend the M5 Neural Net. We're running a special on them this month, 18% the first year, 20% after that. Why should your loved one pass on just because of a little brain damage? It's barbaric, it's just bad science. With the M5 Neural Net yesterday's dreams are today's reality. Imagine your loved ones living out their natural lives in a world where they are always happy, always content, always taken care of. You owe it to your family, you owe it to yourself."

Repo Men
(when asked, 'Did you ever repo anyone you know?') "I had to do my grandaddy. What you laughing about? You try to explain that to your grandmother."
- Jake Freivald,
Repo Men
(explaining the importance of his job to Remy) "Now what do you think keeps a world like this ones' sh*t together. It's not magic. It's not. It's rules. It's people abiding by the terms of the deals they sign themselves. It's rules. You know what is more important that the rules though? It's the enforcement of those rules."
- Jake Freivald,
Repo Men
(explaining his job) "My job is simple. If you can't pay for your car, the bank takes it back. If you can't pay for your house the bank will take it back. If you can't pay for your liver, well that's where I come in."
- Remy,
Repo Men
(talking about an experiment he heard about a cat given poison and put into a box) "I decided to put the cat into the box. He was trying to tell us something. We're all alive, we're all dead, we're all that cat. But we have to make a choice. We can all purr and lick ourselves and wait for the poison to put us down or we scream and scratch and claw our way right out of the top of that damn box."
- Remy,
Repo Men
(writing his memoirs) "So what is it I'm writing? It's not just some cranky memoir or even an attempt to apologize indirectly for what I've done. This is a cautionary tale. I hope that you might learn from my mistakes because in the end, a job is not just a job. It's who you are. If you want to change who are you have to change what you do."
