Quotes:
Bobbie: Listen skinny, before you start talking tough, I'd better warn you I've got a black belt in karate. So why don't you get out of here quietly, while you still got some teeth left in that ugly face?::[Foxy knocks her down with a barstool]::Foxy Brown: And I've got MY black belt in barstools!
Foxy Brown: You pink-ass corrupt honky judge, take your little wet noodle outta here and if you see a man anywhere send him in because I do need a MAN!
Jackie: Let go of my hair, bitch!
Deb: Who does she think she is?::Link Brown: That's my sister, baby, and she's a whole lotta woman.
Michael Anderson: I don't know... vigilante justice?::Foxy Brown: It's as American as apple pie.
Katherine Wall: [after Foxy presents Steve's penis in a pickle jar, kills 2 of her men, and shoots her in the arm] Why didn't you kill me too? Well go on and shoot! I don't want to live anymore!::Foxy Brown: I know. That's the idea. The rest of your man is still around, and I hope you two live a long time, then maybe you can feel some of what I feel. Death is too easy for you, bitch. I want you to SUFFER.
Claudia: [laughing] Was it worth it? You know what they're going to do to us, baby?::Foxy Brown: Yep, nothing, in fact, all the doing is going to be done to them.::Claudia: [laughing] They' gonna kick our ass! But I don't care, it's funny because I know what's going to happen.::[going into hysterics]::Claudia: I don't care!
Foxy Brown: [busting into Link's apartment with a gun] Ooh you son of a bitch, you just had to tell them, didn't you?
Foxy Brown: What? Link too?::Oscar: Yeah, they say it was those Steve Elias people.::Foxy Brown: Was he dealing again?::Oscar: Yeah, coke.::Foxy Brown: I told him to stay away from them.::Oscar: Yeah, but once those people pull you in, there's only ONE way they'll let you go.
Dawes: [to Foxy] We've discussed your request and we're not sure whether we want to help you or not. I mean this is a neighborhood committee and this is kind of out of our area.::Oscar: Maybe the time has come to grow a bit, brother.
