Quotes:

Frank Castle: Howard Saint. Howard Saint!::[Saint stops fleeing]::Frank Castle: You took everything from me.::Howard Saint: You killed my son.::John Saint: [from inside the club] NO...!::[muffled explosion]::Frank Castle: Both of them.

Howard Saint: [to the Toros] Fourteen shipments are perfect. One goes bad and I get this. Why? Because you want to scare me? There's no insurance in this business, you know that. So I'm not covering your fucking losses! And Mike, if you don't like it, just remember one thing: I've got more guns than you do.::[Saint turns away. Mike holds up the cigar he palmed]::Mike Toro: It's not even Cuban, Howard! It's Honduran!::[the Toros leave]::Quentin Glass: They're animals. With all due respect, we *don't* have more guns. It's my duty to inform you...::Howard Saint: It's your duty... to make Castle dead! I don't care what it takes, what it costs! Call the Russian.

Joan: What makes you any different from them?::The Punisher: They have something to lose.

The Punisher: I have work to do. Read your newspaper everyday and you'll understand.::Joan: Which section?::The Punisher: Obituaries.

Candelaria: Vaya con Dios, Castle. Go with God.::Frank Castle: God's going to sit this one out.

Harry Heck: You are one dumb son of a bitch. Bringing a knife to a gunfight.

[last lines]::The Punisher: Those who do evil to others - the killers, the rapists, psychos, sadists - you will come to know me well. Frank Castle is dead. Call me... The Punisher.

The Punisher: I leave this as a declaration of intent, so no one will be confused. One: "Si vis pacem, para bellum." Latin. Boot Camp Sergeant made us recite it like a prayer. "Si vis pacem, para bellum - If you want peace, prepare for war." [cut to later, as Frank prepares his weapons for the final attack on Saint's gang] Two: Frank Castle is dead. He died with his family. Three: in certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law. To pursue... natural justice. This is not vengeance. Revenge is not a valid motive, it's an emotional response. No, not vengeance. Punishment.
