The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

Actually that's not "biblical shit." That was written by Tarantino.

In fact I believe Quentin 'borrowed it' almost word for word from a Japanese action film called Karate Kiba.

Wouldn't surprise me. I've always thought Tarantino to be one of the more over-rated directors in recent times, but he certainly knows his cinema history. His quote about Rio Bravo is hilarious.

"When I'm getting serious about a girl, I show her Rio Bravo and she better fucking like it."

Rio Bravo, for those of you who don't know, is one of John Wayne's most popular films later into his career. Not my favorite Wayne film by any stretch (The Searchers, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, and The Shootist are all better, IMO), but I certainly do appreciate Tarantino's love for it.
