The world is not enough

If you can't trust a Swiss banker, then what's the world come to?  

I wonder if these lines would have been there in the movie if it was made after the financial market collapse of 2008. An example from the Swiss side of the story is that on 18 February 2009, United Bank of Switzerland (UBS) agreed to pay a fine of $780 million to the U.S. Government and entered into a deferred prosecution agreement on charges of conspiring to defraud the United States by impeding the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). For the greed of man, the world is surely not enough! Oh, grow up, double-O Seven!





Well, why would she blow up her own pipeline? It makes her look innocent. The explosion covers up the theft of the plutonium. And they make it look like a terrorist attack. Does that remind you of Iraq? In the words of Alan Greenspan, “I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil”. How is this greed different from the greed that led to the wall-street collapse? Can the people in government really be trusted to frame the laws that will prevent a similar collapse in the future? You're the scientist. You tell me? Oh, grow up, double-O Seven!

Revenge is not hard to fathom for a man who believes in nothing. Is that the state of affairs in the terrorist camps around the world? But if that was so, how could educated men also join such movements? ...Remember 007, shadows always remain in front or behind... never on top. And some shadows sometimes become more real than the real person itself. This will not stand. We will not be terrorized by cowards who will murder an innocent man and use us as the tool. I wonder if these words are of the terrorists or the victims of terrorism. Terrorism seems to me to be an indirect way by which the grand-fathers of this world are killing their grand-children. Are Americans the victims or creators of Al-Qaeda? Are Israelis the victims or creators of Hamas? Are Indians the victims or creators of Pakistan? Yes, well, life is full of small challenges. Can't you just say "hello" like a normal person? Oh, grow up, double-O Seven!
 

There's no point living, if you can't feel alive. 

I could have given you the world. The world is not enough.
