Story Moore Tells Stallone


Whats the moral story Julianne Moore tells Stallone over the two-way while he's in the bank and she's at the outdoor cafe?

It may not be exact, but I believe it's close to the following: "Not everyone who craps on you is your enemy, and not everyone who gets you out of crap is your friend. And if you're happy and warm, no matter where you are, you should just keep you big mouth shut."

The story about the bird in deep *beep* was actually used in an old western with Terrence Hill and Henry Fonda named: My name is Nobody, way before it appeared in Assassins. http://imdb.com/title/tt0070215/
And as far as I remember Hill said something like: "If you´re up to your neck in *beep* you better keep your mouth shut because you never know who is gonna pick you up".
The movie share other similarities with Assassins besides the little tale of morals.
The movie ,Nobody, was a story about wanting to be number one and trying to achieve it by arranging a showdown between two worldclass gunmen (Hill and Fonda).
One wanted the fame and glory of being number one and the other could easily live without it.
Sound familiar?
But the Nobody movie is a comedy while Assassins is not though.
