Lester Siegel: You know what, we're going through. Call my agent, we're going to be in the picture.
Jack O'Donnell: This is the best bad idea we have, sir. By far.
Lester Siegel: If I'm doing a fake movie, it's gonna be a fake hit.
Jack O'Donnell: Brace yourself; it's like talking to those two old fucks on "The Muppets".
Tony Mendez: Sir, exfils are like abortions. You don't wanna need one. But when you do, you don't do it yourself.
Tony Mendez: The only way this works is if you believe that you're these people so much that you dream like them.
Lester Siegel: It's got horses in it, it's a western.
Jack O'Donnell: The whole country is watching you, they just don't know it.

LA Times Reporter: What does the title refer to? Lester Siegel: The Argo. You know, it's the thing. LA Times Reporter: Like Jason and the Golden Fleece, or what? Lester Siegel: No, no. It's the ship. It's the spaceship. It goes everywhere. It goes all throughout space. LA Times Reporter: So, it's Argonaut. Lester Siegel: No. LA Times Reporter: What does Argo mean? Lester Siegel: I don't know. LA Times Reporter: You don't know? Lester Siegel: It means "Argo fuck yourself."
Lester Siegel: Okay, you got 6 people hiding out in a town of what, 4 million people, all of whom chant "death to America" all the livelong day. You want to set up a movie in a week. You want to lie to Hollywood, a town where everybody lies for a living. Then you're gonna sneak 007 over here into a country that wants CIA blood on their breakfast cereal, and you're gonna walk the Brady Bunch out of the most watched city in the world. Tony Mendez: Past about a hundred militia at the airport. That's right. Lester Siegel: Right... Lester Siegel: Look, I, I gotta tell ya. W-We did suicide missions in the army that had better odds than this.
Max Klein: You want me to be honest with you, Les? Lester Siegel: No, I would like you to bullshit me, Max.

First A.D.: He says the Minotaur prosthetic is too tight, so he can't act. John Chambers: If he could act, he wouldn't be playing the Minotaur.
Tony Mendez: You really know Warren Beatty? Lester Siegel: Yes, I do. I took a leak next to him once at the Golden Globes.
Tony Mendez: We got an office, we got business cards, we got a poster. If I'm the Revolutionary Guard, that's nothing we couldn't have made at home. Six people's lives depend on this. It's not enough. If we're gonna fool these people, it has to be big. And it has to have something that says it's authentic. John Chambers: I did a movie with Rock Hudson one time. If you wanna sell a lie... Lester Siegel: You get the press to sell it for you.
Tony Mendez: There are only bad options. It's about finding the best one. C.I.A Director Stansfield Turner: You don't have a better bad idea than this? Jack O'Donnell: This is the best bad idea we have, sir... by far. C.I.A Director Stansfield Turner: The United States government has just sanctioned your science fiction movie.
Tony Mendez: You. Where was your passport issued? Bob Anders: Vancouver. Tony Mendez: Where were you born? Bob Anders: Toronto. Tony Mendez: "Torono". Canadians don't pronounce the "t". Lee Schatz: Some Komiteh guard is actually gonna know that? Tony Mendez: If you're detained for questioning, they will bring in someone who knows that, yes.
Tony Mendez: Fade in on a starship landing. An exotic, Middle Eastern vibe. Women gather, offering ecstatic libations to the sky gods. Argo. A science-fantasy adventure. Lester Siegel: It's in turnaround. It's dog shit. Tony Mendez: It's a space movie in the Middle East. Does it matter? John Chambers: Can we get the option? Tony Mendez: Why do we need the option? Lester Siegel: You're worried about the Ayatollah? Try the WGA.
Jack O'Donnell: I'm required to remind you that if you're detained, the Agency will not claim you. Tony Mendez: They barely claim me as it is.
John Chambers: Hmm, let's see... Well, this one's got an M.A. in English. She should be your screenwriter. Sometimes they go along on scouts 'cause, they want the free meals. Here's your director. Tony Mendez: Can you teach somebody to be a director in a day? John Chambers: You can teach a rhesus monkey to be a director in a day.
Tony Mendez: If we're caught, you and Pat go on trial for harboring the enemy. You know that, right? Ken Taylor: Pat and I have discussed it. It's the risk we took.
John Chambers: You ever think, Lester, how this is all for the cameras? Lester Siegel: Well, they're getting the ratings, I'll say that for them.
John Chambers: Look, if you're gonna this, you gotta do it. The Kho-maniacs are Froot Loops, but they got cousins who sell prayer rugs and eight-tracks on La Brea. You can't build cover stories around a movie that doesn't exist. You need a script, you need a producer. Tony Mendez: Make me a producer. John Chambers: No. You're an associate producer, at best.
Lamont: Call the Times, nail it to the goddamn door. CIA are the good guys. Rossi: The Canadians are the good guys. Lamont: Yeah, we're not greedy. Them, too. Rossi: Only. Canada takes the credit, or they retaliate against the hostages. Great Satan wasn't involved. No CIA. Lamont: Is that right, Jack? Jack O'Donnell: Involved in what? We were as surprised as anybody. Thank you, Canada.
Tony Mendez: What about the White House? Jack O'Donnell: Carter's shitting enough bricks to build the pyramids.
Tony Mendez: We are responsible for these people. Jack O'Donnell: What we are is required to follow orders.
