• Cisco Pike : The kids take it hard when you left?

  Jesse Dupre : I imagine. Ah, screw it, man. I'm gonna' provide for them when we make it. I'm gonna' give 'em half my share. Besides, I got some accident money left.

  Cisco Pike : What's that?

  Jesse Dupre : I got in a car wreck and sustained some heavy "brain damage". That's the easiest one to pull now. Whiplash don't work no more. Broke a leg once. But brain damage, man, that's the easiest one. Ten thousand, just like that. I'm lucky like that, man. Things happen to me.

• Jesse Dupre : You gettin' any more gigs, man?

  Cisco Pike : Yeah. Ed Sullivan wants me.

• Jesse Dupre : [looking at two girls]  Oh wow, man. Long time.

  Cisco Pike : Same though, ain't it?

• Cisco Pike : [to Sue, who is meditating]  Why can't you just be some nice, healthy Baptist like the neighbors, 'stead of squattin', weird on the table like some freak.

• Cisco Pike : [to Jesse, who's worried he might be too old to get back on stage again]  It ain't your goddamned body they're after, man, it's your soul!
