:: Bad Mutha F**ker ::

The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

- Quentin Tarantino, Pulp Fiction

From one of the seminal movie of the nineties, this belongs squarely in the bad-ass category. Playing Jules Winnfeld established (stereotyped) Samuel L. Jackson as a take no nonsense character in movies. Just look at his roles in the ten years since this movie. Shaft, Mace Windu, Agent Augustus Gibbons, Sgt Don 'Hondo' Harelson, Coach Carter... All of them own a debt of gratitude to Jules Winnfeld. He was the first and best of them.

dagger's useless info time: In the movie, Jules refer to the quoted passage as Ezekiel 27:17. For those of you with bibles on hand, can you find this book? *grinz*
