About this quote

Tony Montana (Al Pacino) delivers this line to a detective interrogating him in Scarface (1983), directed by Brian De Palma. Tony's casual admission of dishonesty is simultaneously self-aware and delusional — he seems to believe the statement is a mark of authenticity. The line encapsulates the paradox of Tony's character: a man who lies constantly but is honest about the fact that he does.
