As your leader, I encourage you to — from time to time and always in a respectful manner — to question my logic. If you're unconvinced a particular plan of action I've decided is the wisest, tell me so. But allow me to convince you. And I will promise you, right here and now, no subject will be taboo... except, of course, the subject that was just under discussion.
The price you pay for bringing up either my Chinese or my American heritage as a negative is, I collect your fucking head. [holds up a decapitated head] Just like this fucker here. Now if any of you sons of bitches got anything else to say, NOW'S THE FUCKING TIME!!... I didn't think so.

*a rough translation/transcription of her line "Gentlemen, this meeting is adjourned." which she speaks in (bad according to natives) Japanese in the movie. Somehow it's impossible to find the Japanese quotes from Kill Bill as they are. They're always translated to English.
If anyone is fluent in Japanese and would be willing to provide, at the least, translations of "Gentlemen, this meeting is adjourned" and "So you all know the seriousness of my warning, I will say this in English" that would be greatly appreciated!
