Pulp Fiction: The 38 Bad Motherf*****’ Quotes

Decades have passed since the premiere of Pulp Fiction, but its cult is stronger than ever.

With funny dialogues, an unconventional storyline, and an unusual mix of violence and black humor, Tarantino has succeeded in adding a new dimension to the genre of pop culture and crime.

Thanks to the fantastic characters (Zed is still dead), we will never forget Ezekiel 25:17, what Marsellus Wallace looks like, what a five-dollar shake tastes like, and, of course, we will know forever how they call a Quarter Pounder with cheese in France.

The award for so much attention and care about details came in the form of seven nominations for the Oscars and an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay for Tarantino and Roger Avary.

In honor of one of the most beloved independent films, here are the 38 best quotes from this timeless classic.

P.S. Be careful and look around when Vincent Vega goes to the bathroom because something will likely happen.
