- Ozone: Looky here, hot shot, you can forget your plans, man. Cause we're going to stop you. We're going to stop you cold.
- Mr. Douglas: I doubt if an arrogant bunch of street kids have the power to...
- Byron: You don't know how much power we really have do you? We'll go to the press and we'll fight this thing all the way.
- [first lines]
- Mr. Bennett: Well, Kelly, now that you've left your life in the theater, maybe you'd like to reconsider my offer of four years at Princeton.
- Kelly: I haven't quit, Dad. I'm just takin' a break. I told you a million times: dance is my life.
- Mr. Bennett: What about that young friend of yours? That lawyer? What was his name? Derek? You wanted to marry him. Why'd you break up with him?
- Kelly: Derek's a nerd. And you're the one that liked him, not me.
- Mrs. Bennett: Well, at least she's not spending time with those street people anymore, darling.
- Strobe: Electros rule the dance floor now, sucka! Why don't you get back to your social club - and go play with your babies.
- Mr. Bennett: Come on, you guys, let's turn these fools out!
- Strobe: What'd you do? Did you bring your Mama along to wipe your nose?
- Turbo: [lurches forward] Who's...
- Ozone: Stand back and be cool! Listen, we're not gonna waste any of our moves - and we sure not gonna dance with punks!
- Byron: Ozone, look at this jive letter they sent me this mornin' from City Hall.
- Ozone: What's this baloney?
- Byron: It says that our building is gonna be condemned - unless somebody comes up with two hundred thousand dollars to fix it. And I don't think the city's gonna come up with that kinda bread.
- Ozone: Let's raise the money!
- Byron: Two hundred thousand dollars - is a whole lot of nickels and dimes.
- Turbo: Hey man, what did she say?
- Hawaiian Shirt Guy: She thinks your sexy. She wants to dance with you. Go on, man. I think she likes you.
- Turbo: Dude, I need some advice.
- Ozone: Yeah, what advice?
- Turbo: I wanna know how to start off with a girl, dude.
- Ozone: Yeah? Hey, you mean, you're asking me how to get it on with a girl?
- Turbo: Well, somethin' like that.
- Ozone: Alright! If that's the case, I'll show you a few tricks from the old master. There's two phases to this. There's phase number one: you gotta get the girl interested. Then, there's phase number two: the ole tactical maneuvers.
- Mr. Bennett: What's this Stanley tells me about our daughter dancing in Paris?
- Mrs. Bennett: Darling, she doesn't even have the job yet.
- Mr. Bennett: And I also understand that she's been back in the streets with that - Bozo - or Turbine - or whatever the hell their names are!
- Mr. Bennett: Oh, I see. You're here for money! Well, I know what you people do with money. You mismanage it! You spend it on drugs, fancy clothes, and cars.
- Kelly: Dad!
- Mr. Bennett: I don't see any point in throwing good money after bad.
- Ozone: Come on, Turbo. We don't need you're help. We can take care of our own.
- Mrs. Snyder: The Chair at this time does not recognize comments from the floor.
- Ozone: And the floor recognizes that this Panel is trying to push our people right out of our neighborhood!
- Randall: I object to this outrageous interruption.
- Mrs. Snyder: Mr. Randall, this is a public meeting.
- Ozone: Right. And the public says that Miracles is more than just a piece of property. It's people!
- Byron: Miracles is the lifeline of our kids. We know what kids can do with pistols, knives and needles. Miracles make 'em feel good about their self. Give 'em somthin' to look forward to. Give 'em a sense of of achievement! And its not by steppin' on people. It's by workin' hard and workin' together!
- Mr. Bennett: Wise up. You're pride can't afford to turn down an offer like this.
- Ozone: And what do you know about pride? Pride's more important to our kids than your money will evah be. Nobody - is gonna tell me to lay down my pride!
- Howard Howard: Looks like you really danced your way to victory out here today!
- Ozone: Yeah, well, it's still not over yet. Say, we need a miracle to save Miracles.
- Singer: [singing] I believe in the beat, I believe in the way I feel, When I'm dancin' it seems like everything's alright, I believe in the beat, Nothing can keep me down, Just as long as they keep that sound comin' through the night, I believe in the beat! Oooooo!
