This is a list of memorable quotes from Mike Banning.
Olympus Has Fallen[]

- President Benjamin Asher: I am an old man.
- Mike Banning: No, you're not. But you box like one
- Mike Banning: (To Leah through the phone) Just checking in.
- Lynne Jacobs: (after Banning gives The Pentagon a picture of tattoo of a dead terrorist) Is he alive?
- Mike Banning: Ask me a serious question.
- Mike Banning: Classified? Really? Well right now, I believe I have the proverbial need to fuckin' know.
- Lynne Jacobs: How do you know we can trust this information?
- Mike Banning: I just asked them nicely (cleaning the blood off his knife).
- Speaker Allan Trumbull: We're talking about the safety of the President of the United States.
- Mike Banning: We're talking about a hell of a lot more than that, sir.
- Mike Banning: (amusingly to Kang on the radio chat) The bodies are piling up.
- Mike Banning: (To Kang on the radio chat) You know what? Why don't you and I play a game of fuck off? You go first.
- Mike Banning: (To Kang on the video chat) You look like you've seen a ghost.
- Kang Yeonsak: I underestimated you. It will not happen again.
- Mike Banning: There is no again. You're gonna die down there, alone and cut off from the rest of the world. My advice? Save the last bullet for yourself. Because if you don't, I'm gotta stick my knife through your brain. But don't worry, I'm gonna leak the photos of your body to the press, because I know you like that kind of shit. (Cuts off)
- Mike Banning: Your team needs some serious fucking help.

- Mike Banning: (barely composing himself) Me neither.
