The Family Man Quotes

Nicolas Cage as Jack

  • (Nicolas Cage) "Then I'm going to spend four hours skiing alone. Completely and utterly alone. I'm going to do that because that is my life, that's what's real -- and there's nothing I can do to change that."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "I just want my life back, okay? Now what's it gonna take? You wanna talk turkey? Let's talk turkey. HOW MUCH MONEY?"
  • (Nicolas Cage) "You can't keep coming in and out of people's lives, messing things up. It's not right."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "I'm sorry I was such a saint before, and I'm such a prick now."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "We have a house in Jersey. We have two kids, Annie and Josh. Annie's not much of a violin player, but she tries real hard. She's a little precocious, but that's only because she says what's on her mind. And when she smiles -- And Josh, he has your eyes. He doesn't say much, but we know he's smart. He's always got his eyes open, he's always watching us. Sometimes you can look at him and you just know he's learning something new. It's like witnessing a miracle. The house is a mess but it's ours. After 122 more payments, it's going to be ours. And you, you're a non-profit lawyer. That's right, you're completely non-profit, but that doesn't seem to bother you. And we're in love. After 13 years of marriage we're still unbelievably in love. You won't even let me touch you until I've said it. I sing to you. Not all the time, but definitely on special occasions. We've dealt with our share of surprises and made a lot of sacrifices but we've stayed together. You see, you're a better person than I am. And it made me a better person to be around you. I don't know, maybe it was just all a dream. Maybe I went to bed one lonely night in December and I imagined it all. But I swear, nothing has ever felt more real. And if you get on that plane right now, it'll disappear forever. I know we could both go on with our lives and we'd both be fine, but I've seen what we could be like together. And I choose us."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "If you could take a dump sometime in this century, then we could go home where it's warm."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "Because you thought I was cocky, I'm now on a permanent acid trip ?"
  • (Nicolas Cage) "That's mine. She took my bell."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "Well, you know everything worked out. I mean, I like Annie."
  • (Téa Leoni) "Well good, Jack. Maybe we'll keep her."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "I'm in the middle of a deal."
  • (Don Cheadle) "Well, you're working on a new deal now, baby."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "Lemme see the ticket."
  • (Don Cheadle) "Was I talkin' to you?"
  • (Nicolas Cage) "Maybe I'll buy it from you. You know, make a little business deal."
  • (Don Cheadle) "Stupid ass white boy in two thousand dollar suit gets capped tryin' to be a hero, news at 11. That's what you wanna see?"
  • (Don Cheadle) "Do you wanna die?"

Téa Leoni as Kate

  • (Téa Leoni) "Hi honey. How was the game?"
  • (Nicolas Cage) "Long, boring, and generally pretty sad. Arnie seemed to enjoy it. Sorta."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "Hey where's that chocolate cake?"

  • (Nicolas Cage) "I want it."
  • (Nicolas Cage) "Thank you."
  • (Téa Leoni) "When you got on that plane, I was sure it was over. I left the airport afraid I'd never see you again. And then you showed up the very next day. That was a good surprise. You know, I think about the decision you made -- maybe I was being naive, but I believed that we would grow old together in this house. That we'd spend holidays here and have our grandchildren come visit us here. I had this image of us, all grey and wrinkly, and me working in the garden and you re-painting the deck. But things change. If you need this, Jack, if you really need this, I will take these kids from a life they love and I'll take myself from the only home we've ever shared together and I'll move wherever you need to go. I'll do that because I love you. I love you, and that's more important to me than our address. I choose us."
  • (Téa Leoni) "How can you do that?"
  • (Nicolas Cage) "What?"
  • (Téa Leoni) "Look at me like you haven't seen me every day for the last 13 years."

Jeremy Piven as Arnie
