• Abby : What makes you we're talkin' about just a couple of months?

  Bill : Look, the man's got one foot on a banana peel, the other on a roller skate. It'll all be gone in a couple of years. Who's gonna care that we acted perfect?

• Bill : I'm always lookin' out for you.

  Linda : You deserve a medal.

• Bill : I went to work in the mill. Couldn't wait to get in there. Begin at 7:00. Got to have a smile on your face. And one day you wake up, you find you're not the smartest guy in the world. Never gonna come up with the big score. When I was growin' up, I thought I really would.

• Linda : Are we gonna stay?

  Bill : If she wants to.

  Linda : You'd rather go?

  Bill : I'd rather be the King of Siam.

• Bill : Somethin' might happen. What's your mouth hangin' open for? Don't tell me. I already know. On account of your unhappy life - all that shit. Well, I'm tellin' you, we gotta do something about it. Can't expect anybody else to.

• Abby : I held out a long time. I had rich men pay me compliments. Have I ever said anything to you that would make you think...

  Bill : You don't have to. I mean, I hate it, to see you stooped over out there. Them looking at your ass like you're a whore. I hate it.

• Bill : You're confusing me, you know. Drivin' me crazy. I don't know if I'm comin' or goin'.

  Abby : You never did.
