With Due Respect/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Sebastian: Well, your objections have been duly noted and summarily overruled.
Sarah: Yes, Sir!
Sebastian: How come when you say "Yes, Sir" it kinda sounds like "Fuck you!"

Eunice: "With all due respect... man I hate it when people say that because it is inevitably followed by a disrespectful remark. Here let me give you an example: With all due respect detective, this matter falls under whatever jurisdiction I fuckin' say it does."
"With respect," said Ponder, without respect...
"With all due respect" = "You deserve no respect".

Scumspawn: Sire, with respect...
Satan: Ah! We don't like sentences that begin "with respect", do we? Because "with respect" is a meaningless form of words that people use just before they tell you you're talking bollocks.

"'With all due respect.' You know that something crazy is going to come after that."
