chuztpah 

A Yiddish term for a cocky or insolent person. The quality of being able to murder both your parents, and then plead the court for mercy on the grounds that you're an orphan.

You mean to tell me he jumped the courier, swiped Fat Charlie's shipment of meth, and then offered to sell the meth back to him? Man, he has chutzpah!

Chutzpah 

An essential quality that 99/100 voles lack.

Other skills that voles fall behind in include lacklustre organisation skills and abysmal timekeeping.

"You've vole got no Chutzpah. Your organisation skills are lacklustre and your timekeeping is abysmal."

Chutzpah 

Daring and self belief. Feeling really funky about something and there fore not stressing about it. Chutzpah is not just a feeling but a way of life. It’s about feeling audacious and having courage in yourself.

Go into the exam with chutzpah and even if you don’t know anything you’ll do okay.

Ethan has a bunch of chutzpah

Chutzpah 

Old joke about the kid who killed his parents and then pleaded for mercy in court because he was an orphan.

(taken from Digital Filmmaking 101 book by Dale Newton and Josh Gaspard, page 31)

And from there you can bargain for better. You've got to have the chutzpah to keep pushing for more and more -- or in this case, less and less.
