Captain America: The Winter Soldier Quote
Nick Fury: Why make me head of SHIELD?
Alexander Pierce: Because you're the best. And the most ruthless person I ever met.
Nick Fury: I did what I did to protect people.
Alexander Pierce: Our enemies are your enemies, Nick. Disorder, war. It's just a matter of time before a dirty bomb goes off in Moscow, or an EMP fries Chicago. Diplomacy? Holding action, a band-aid. And you know where I learned that; Bogota. You didn't ask, you just did what had to be done. I can bring order to the lives of seven billion people by sacrificing twenty million. It's the next step, Nick, if you have the courage to take it.
Nick Fury: No, I have the courage not to. [Moves to the retinal scanner]
Alexander Pierce: You don't you think we wiped your clearance from the system?
Nick Fury: I know you erased my password. Probably deleted my retinal scan. But if you want to stay ahead of me, Mr. Secretary... [removes his eye patch]
Nick Fury: ... you need to keep both eyes open.
