[at the Dexter Lake Club, a Negroes-only bar, with Otis Day and the Knights playing Shama Lama Ding Dong] Pinto: What are you majoring in? Brunella: Primitive cultures.
Kilgore: All right, let's see what we have. Two of spades. Three of spades. Four of diamonds, six of clubs... there isn't one worth a jack in the whole bunch. Four of diamonds...
Richard Vernon: What if your home... what if your family... what if your *dope* was on fire? John Bender: Impossible, sir. It's in Johnson's underwear.
Bender: Remember how you said your parents use you to get back at each other? Claire Standish: [nods] Bender: Wouldn't I be OUTSTANDING in that capacity?
Andrew: Why do you have to insult everybody? John Bender: I'm being honest, asshole. I would expect you to know the difference.
Brian Johnson: [after Brian explains his F in shop] Did you know without trigonometry, there'd be no engineering? Bender: Without lamps, there'd be no light.
Brian Johnson: I'm a fucking idiot because I can't make a lamp? John Bender: No. You're a genius because you can't make a lamp.
Richard Vernon: You ought to spend a little more time trying to make something of yourself and a little less time trying to impress people.
Brian: Are you gonna be, like, a shopping bag lady? You know, like, sit in alleyways and, like, talk to buildings and wear men's shoes and that kinda thing?
John Bender: But face it. You're a neo maxi zoom dweebie, what would you be doing if you weren't out making yourself a better citizen?
Allison Reynolds: [Chews fingernails] Bender: You keep eating your hand; you're not gonna be hungry for lunch. Allison Reynolds: [Spits fingernail at Bender]
[after discovering sickos in the booths at a strip club] Connor: It's like a scumbag yard sale. Murphy: We should come down here once a week and clean house.
The truth is, I initially became a singer-songwriter while still in my teens because it was the only way to guarantee that somebody on earth would sing the songs I was writing. Since then, I've performed just about everywhere: rock clubs, concerts ha...
In 1972 through '74, right before we hit it big, we were hauling our own equipment into the club and setting up and playing for, I don't know, a hundred bucks a night.
Books are something social - a writer speaking to a reader - so I think making the reading of a book the center of a social event, the meeting of a book club, is a brilliant idea.
I will never forget how I have been treated here by the fans, the club and the owners, and nothing would give me greater pleasure than to finish my career as a Manchester City player.
I do whatever I do. I go to the club. I work on material. While other people are sleeping, I'm awake. I always liked that. I like being able to drive when there's no traffic. It's almost like you own the street at night.
I was a caddy once and I lost the golfer's clubs. Plus I don't know how to golf, so I was the worst caddy ever. Then I was a mortgage brokers assistant, so that was just carrying around a lot of files - pretty meaningless, mind-numbing work.
I get myself a gig somewhere, whether it's in a club, whether it's in a bar, it doesn't matter, and I just work on New Year's Eve because I always feel it's very symbolic for me for the next year, for the new year.
Some comedians tell nice jokes that you can tell to your kids. Some use bad words - they work 'blue.' If you don't want to hear a joke that's blue, you shouldn't go to a comedy club where a comedian who makes blue jokes is performing.
When it comes to losing with United, I feel solely responsible for it. I can't help it. My brain will work like mad after a defeat. I want to know where I have made the wrong decisions, how I could have changed things for this fantastic club.
