Quotes4

  • Benny: Time is a funny thing. Time is a very peculiar item. You see, when you're young - you're a kid - you got time. You got nothin' but time. Throw away a couple of years here, a couple of years there. It doesn't matter. You know. The older you get, you say, "Jesus, how much I got? I got 35 summers left." Think about it. Thirty-five summers.
  • Rusty James: How do you know when someone's crazy?
  • Benny: Well, you don't always. It depends on how many people think they're crazy.
  • Benny: Come on. Watch your language over there. Watch it. Bring it down. Bring it down. Cool it off.
  • Midget: You cats are constantly fightin' and arguin' amongst yourselves, like typical fuckin' yabbos.
  • Benny: Watch your language. Come on. Come on.
  • Rusty James: Hey, uh, Benny, get me a chocolate milk, huh?
