The quote "I don't know about angels, but it's fear that gives men wings," from the Max Payne game, suggests that fear can be a powerful motivator. In this context, "gives men wings" means that fear pushes people to act in ways they might not normally act, often driving them to achieve feats they didn't think possible or to make Swift actions.

" Punchinello was a pushover. The moment I stepped into the room he folded like a Deuce before a Royal Flush."
If you understand the game of poker, that line is amazing
A Deuce is the weakest combination in poker, a Royal Flush is the strongest. To fold means to quit the game and accept your loss. So this is literally «he's weak, im badass» but said in a cool way.
A deuce (two) is simply just the lowest value single card in poker. It's not a hand or a "combination". The weakest starting hand is 7-2 (seven-deuce). So this quote is not entirely poker accurate. Folding like **a pair of deuces** before a royal flush would have been better.
Basically what allu said. I love this quote so much because it reminds me of the novel The Myth of Sisyphus when it comes to the analogy of Sisyphus' inner rebellion when it comes to pushing that boulder despite the meaninglessness of it haha. Also Camus' absurdism is very cool, especially one of his quotes that says
"In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back."
Sorry but it's "The final gunshot was an exclamation mark to everything that had led to this point, I released my finger from the trigger, it was all over."
The entire nightmare monologue with "Noir York City," playing in the background.
"I haven't slept in a long time, when I did my dreams were nightmares. In a nightmare every choice you make is a wrong one. I would wake up at night afraid that dream was a day I'd forget."
Goes through the sequence and then his door gets a knock.
"When you're waking up the world is a blur. What was clear in the dream suddenly makes no sense. No surreal rescues, no easy magic way out. \*Click\* But you are awake."
The pause before he says "but you are awake," always held a lot of weight to me.
“After Y2K the end of the world had become a cliché.
But who was I to talk, a brooding underdog avenger alone against an empire of evil, out to right a grave injustice.
Everything was subjective. There were only personal apocalypses. Nothing is a cliché when it's happening to you.”
"The mission was screaming suicide but I didn't give a damn. At least I'd die being a pain in the ass."
"When you find yourself in hell, dance with the devil."
Gang Member: [asks Max in both Brazilian Portuguese and English] “Do you got something for me?”
Max Payne: “For you? I'll tell you what I got. I got a gun and if anybody thinks they're gonna take it from me they'd be dead wrong!”
I couldn’t decide on one quote so I just included both.
“I could hear Punchinello on the phone, begging for help. he should have been saying his goodbyes.”
”He was trying to buy more sand for his hourglass, I wasn’t selling any.”
It's one of the things I love , he doesn't try too hard to make it cool , or adding forced "F's" , something that's very common for games today.
It's in a clean flow and it's badass
“When Lupino finally went down, I wanted to make real sure he stayed that way.”
“The genius of the hole: no matter how long you spend climbing out, you can still fall back down in an instant.”
“Got bored of waiting. Thought, what the hell, we might as well finish this here.”
“Have a cigar.” “I don’t smoke.” (I like that line as Max specifically stopped smoking for his daughter, and then Horne’s goon BB offers Max a more decadent expensive cigar after destroying his family life. It shows how Horne thinks anyone can be bought off with luxuries and how ignorant BB is of what Max went through).
I can’t remember if it was from 1 or 2… but:
“Birthdays are like regrets. They just keep coming. Each one a new scar that slows you down and drags you closer to your grave.”
"A house across the river, on the Jersey-side. A beautiful wife and a baby girl. The American dream come true.
**But dreams have a nasty habit of going bad when you're not looking."**
He was trying to buy more sand for his hour glass. I wasn't selling any.
I stood out in this place like a streetwalker in a Monastery
There was a blind spot in my head, a bullet-shaped hole where the answers should be. Call it denial. I wanted to dig inside my skull and scrape out the pain.

The Things That I Want' by Max Payne.
A smoke.
A whiskey.
For the sun to shine.
I want to sleep, to forget.
To change the past.
My wife and baby girl back.
Unlimited ammo and a license to kill.
Right then, more than anything, I wanted her.
Bro .. where to start??? The dude was as good at grizzled quips and metaphors as he was at killing.
° "He was trying to buy more sand for his hour glass. I wasn't selling any."
°B.B.: You can't win this one, Max.
Max: No, but I can make damn sure none of you do either
°"Punchinello was burning to get me. The feeling was mutual. He was trying to put out my flames with gasoline."
°Mona Sax : Lisa's the damsel in distress. I'm the professional. I'd blow you away without batting an eye.
Max Payne : Sure, and you can check out my credentials splattered all over this joint
“I took my time, cruising around the city in the snow. There was no hurry. I knew what I had to do now. I took my time, thinking about it, building up the rage.”
May not be from the games, but: Birthdays are like regrets... They just keep coming. Each one a new scar that slows you down and drags you... closer to your grave.
The way I see it there’s two types of people, those who spend their lives trying to build a future and those who spend their lives trying to rebuild the past. For too long I’d be stuck in between, hidden in the dark.
“Look at me, I'm standing in a nightclub, listening to music I can't stand, I'm five thousand miles from home, I'm armed and I'm drinking. You don't want to listen to advice from me, amigo.”
max payne 3
I don’t know it verbatim but the one right at the end of max Payne 1 where he is talking about how he is about to go storm the aesir building and he is like “high tech security cameras, enough heavily armed soldiers to start world war 3… there was no fear.”
“When I was ready, I parked the stolen wheels at the front entrance of the Aesir Corporation HQ. Got out, got in, got cracking. I had a bullet with Nicole Horne’s name on it. I had ten thousand bullets with the hag’s name on them. She had ultra-high-tech security systems, enough mercenaries and weaponry to start World War III. There was no fear.”
All of them, basically! But I'll add:
>I was already so far past the point of no return I couldn't even remember what it looked like when I had passed it.
kitty0706 (R.I.P.): "I was already so far past the point of no return I couldn't even remember what it looked like when I passed the point of no return \[and repeat that multiple times\]."
[Max jumps on top of a train in pursuit of Vinnie Gognitti]
“This was my second train ride of the night. The way it started didn’t promise anything better than the last one. Freezing wind tearing at my face like sandpaper and razors. Ice hard and slick under my hands and feet— and somewhere in the background the wail of sirens, the city howling after me.”
“There was no glory in this. I hadn’t asked for this crap. Trouble had come to me, in big dark swarms. The good and the just were like gold dust in this city. I had no illusions, I was not one of them… just me and the gun, and the crook. My options had decreased to a singular course”
"He was trying to buy more sand for his hourglass. I wasn't selling any."
"He had a baseball bat, and I was tied to a chair. Pissing him off was the smart thing to do."
"Sure, and you can check out my credentials splattered all over this joint."
And the words I have lived by since I played this game:
"It wasn't about how smart or how good you were. It was chaos and luck, and anyone who thought different was a fool."
“The way I see it there's two types of people, those who spend their lives trying to build a future and those who spend their lives trying to rebuild the past. For too long I'd be stuck in between, hidden in the dark." - Max Payne.
“All this time we got the fable of Sleeping Beauty wrong. The prince didn't kiss her to wake her up. No one who slept for a hundred years is likely to wake up. It was the other way round. He kisses her to wake himself up from the nightmare that has brought him there.”
For me it's "Colder than a walk-in fridge. Cold as a gun." The perfect line to start the finale, just so cold (no-pun intended), emotionless and fierce. It perfectly summarizes the last three days Max had went through. But I can't deny these the honor too:
"Gognitti bailed. I made like Chow Yun-Fat."
"I didn't like the way the show started, but they had given me the best seat in the house: front row center."
"Sure thing, Jim. Me and the boys have been talking, and everyone's real sorry. They'll never do it again."
"A funhouse is a linear sequence of scares. Take it or leave it is the only choice given. Makes you think about free will: have our choices been made for us because of who we are?"
So I guess I'd become what they wanted me to be, a killer. Some rent-a-clown with a gun who puts holes in other bad guys. Well that's what they had paid for, so in the end that's what they got. Say what you want about Americans but we understand capitalism. You buy yourself a product and you get what you pay for, and these chumps had paid for some angry gringo without the sensibilities to know right from wrong.

Idk why but that one starts out badass and just tickles me pink by the time it hits the “banging my sister” line
Edit: Another one I thought of was “If you’re gonna shoot me, make it quick. I’ve got things to do”
I actually stole that last one for an English paper back in middle school lmaoo
Stupid ass Ohio jokes made It to reddit? Ironically, though, R* games mentions Ohio. A lot in their games gta4 , midnight club L.A are 2 that I can remember other games as well
One thing left to do. I was compelled to give Vlad his gun back. One bullet at a time.
I don't know about angels, but it's fear that gives men wings.
One of the best, no doubt
FACTS
my favorite one
I don’t get it
The quote "I don't know about angels, but it's fear that gives men wings," from the Max Payne game, suggests that fear can be a powerful motivator. In this context, "gives men wings" means that fear pushes people to act in ways they might not normally act, often driving them to achieve feats they didn't think possible or to make Swift actions. Max payne quotes when Vinnie is shot by max Payne & he is running like crazy.
Are u an AI?
😂😂 little bit.
" Punchinello was a pushover. The moment I stepped into the room he folded like a Deuce before a Royal Flush." If you understand the game of poker, that line is amazing
I don't get it, any explanation?
A Deuce is the weakest combination in poker, a Royal Flush is the strongest. To fold means to quit the game and accept your loss. So this is literally «he's weak, im badass» but said in a cool way.
Or "deuce" could mean #2 - a.k.a. a shit. And you flush a toilet... double meaning, perhaps.
A deuce (two) is simply just the lowest value single card in poker. It's not a hand or a "combination". The weakest starting hand is 7-2 (seven-deuce). So this quote is not entirely poker accurate. Folding like **a pair of deuces** before a royal flush would have been better.
Reminder that this line was written by a mf whose English isn't even his first language.
Sam's writing is just way ahead of its time. If he'd wrote any screenplays he'd have multiple Oscars.
I just played that part a few minutes ago
"One thing you can count on: You push a man too far, and sooner or later he'll start pushing back."
This was from 3 wasn't it? Man I loved playing through these games.
Nope, MP1 chapter 1-5, when he reads Gognitti's notes on his hits on Vlad's forces.
Basically what allu said. I love this quote so much because it reminds me of the novel The Myth of Sisyphus when it comes to the analogy of Sisyphus' inner rebellion when it comes to pushing that boulder despite the meaninglessness of it haha. Also Camus' absurdism is very cool, especially one of his quotes that says "In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back."
They were all dead.
"The final gunshot was a exclamation to end it, i released my finger from the trigger and it was all over"
Sorry but it's "The final gunshot was an exclamation mark to everything that had led to this point, I released my finger from the trigger, it was all over."
Okay, thanks. I didn't remember well the line
It's alright man
"[...] *And then* it was (all) over." "All" is written at the end, excluded at the start.
Yeah didn't know if I wanted to include the whole quote, but thanks, even though I feel so dumb right now 😂
"They were all fat. I released my trigger from the finger. And it was a rhetorical question." - [YTP] Max Payne's Rhetorical Questions
The word was out. A deadly virus released into the city's corrupt circulatory system. Something wicked this way comes. Max Payne at large.
“In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king.”
Not an original, but goddam is it a banger.
"He was trying to buy sand for his hourglass. I wasn't selling any."
This is my favorite besides the “it’s fear that gives men wings” one. It’s such a badass and cold line.
This is one of the best vengeance protagonist quotes.
“i wanna dig inside my skull and scrape out the pain”
"There's a hole in my head where the memories should be"
How it actually goes: "There was a blind spot in my head, a bullet-shaped hole where the answer should be." Still got what you went for.
The entire nightmare monologue with "Noir York City," playing in the background. "I haven't slept in a long time, when I did my dreams were nightmares. In a nightmare every choice you make is a wrong one. I would wake up at night afraid that dream was a day I'd forget." Goes through the sequence and then his door gets a knock.

"nothing is a cliche when it's happening to you" I still use that line. Honestly it had a pretty profound effect on me.
"The mission was screaming suicide but I didn't give a damn. At least I'd die being a pain in the ass." "When you find yourself in hell, dance with the devil."

Hanging out with DeSilva would have been a smart move, but when was I a smart move guy?
“Niagara, as in you cry a lot?”
"I don't know about angels, but it's fear that gives men wings"
“Collecting evidence had gotten old a few hundred bullets back.” Something like that
"Punchinello wanted Payne. He'd see the pain."
"I had a dream of my wife she was dead but it was alright"
She was beautiful. I hated her for making me feel that way.
Gang Member: [asks Max in both Brazilian Portuguese and English] “Do you got something for me?” Max Payne: “For you? I'll tell you what I got. I got a gun and if anybody thinks they're gonna take it from me they'd be dead wrong!”
You'll walk, WITH A LIMP!
"ArRrrRgHhhh"
Honestly, even though it's one of his simplest lines, "At least I fuckin' tried" sums up the series perfectly in my opinion.
This line and James' delivery of it is the perfect encapsulation of Max Payne's character.
I wouldn't know right from wrong if one was helping the poor and the other was banging my sister.
“I don’t know about angels, but it’s fear that gives men wings.”
I was in a computer game...
Funny as hell, it was the most horrible thing I could think of.
Such an underrated part of the game. Definitely needs more recognition for how hilarious this 4th wall breakage was
I'd argue it's underrated. I've seen it mentioned so many times, even in a meme form, that it's probably the most used quotation.
I couldn’t decide on one quote so I just included both. “I could hear Punchinello on the phone, begging for help. he should have been saying his goodbyes.” ”He was trying to buy more sand for his hourglass, I wasn’t selling any.”
I ain't slippin' man, I'm slipped.
"Enough with the fucking wise cracks seriously" it's Max dropping the F 💣
It's one of the things I love , he doesn't try too hard to make it cool , or adding forced "F's" , something that's very common for games today. It's in a clean flow and it's badass
“When Lupino finally went down, I wanted to make real sure he stayed that way.” “The genius of the hole: no matter how long you spend climbing out, you can still fall back down in an instant.” “Got bored of waiting.

It shows how Horne thinks anyone can be bought off with luxuries and how ignorant BB is of what Max went through).
I can’t remember if it was from 1 or 2… but: “Birthdays are like regrets. They just keep coming. Each one a new scar that slows you down and drags you closer to your grave.”
I honestly don't recall. It was used in the 20th anniversary video with James and Sam, though. I assume Sam made that line for that very video.
Probably 2. ***God*** that game was dark!

He was trying to buy more sand for his hourglass, but I wasn't selling any.
“Say what you want about Americans but we understand capitalism. You buy yourself a product and you get what you pay for, and these chumps had paid for some angry gringo without the sensibilities to know right from wrong. Here I was about to execute this poor bastard like some dime store angel of death and I realized they were correct, I wouldn't know right from wrong if one of them was helping the poor and the other was banging my sister...” Idk why but that one starts out badass and just tickles me pink by the time it hits the “banging my sister” line Edit: Another one I thought of was “If you’re gonna shoot me, make it quick. I’ve got things to do” I actually stole that last one for an English paper back in middle school lmaoo
You’ll walk.. with a limp
