I don't listen to the radio, cause I don't have a driver's license. But if I'm in L.A. or somewhere where we have to rent a car, I'll hear my songs. Sometimes I hear them when I'm in stores, and I'm still like a little kid in a candy shop: 'Oh my God...
My engineer dad is where my technical acumen comes from. I remember him taking me to the factories to see how what works. Often he used to open up his motorbike to fix things and I saw how the wheels worked. His car used to be open for dissection ver...
I dated a guy and he liked me but I didn't like him. I went through his wardrobe and cleaned out his house and got him to get a new car. He said to me, 'If I give you $10,000, will you find me my wife because I want someone like you?' And within a ye...
Here in the bathroom with me are razor blades. Here is iodine to drink. Here are sleeping pills to swallow. You have a choice. Live or die. Every breath is a choice. Every minute is a choice. To be or not to be. Every time you don't throw yourself do...
...if he didn't fully understand where I came from, he understood who I was now -- he knew how well done I liked my steak, knew the color of my toothbrush, the expression I made when I realized I'd forgotten to roll up my car window before it rained.

Deprived of the opportunity to judge one another by the cars we drive, New Yorkers, thrown together daily on mass transit, form silent opinions based on our choices of subway reading. Just by glimpsing the cover staring back at us, we can reach the p...
Television, radio, social media. The 24/7 news cycle plows forward mercilessly on our desks, in our cars and in our pockets. Thousands and thousands of messages and voices bombard us from the moment we wake, fighting for our attention. All we see and...
Then without any warning the car stopped. They were there. "The ride's over," someone said. "End of the ride." For a moment nobody got out. They just sat there. The driver cut the ignition, and after that there was silence. Complete, uncanny silence,...
Identity We live in a world where people define themselves by occupation. And we identify ourselves by what material possessions we have. House,cars,money,clothes etc. Take away all that and you lost your identity. Sadly to say these are the things t...
One morning, about four o'clock, I was driving my car just about as fast as I could. I thought, 'Why am I out on the highway this time of night?' I was miserable, and it all came to me: 'I'm falling in love with somebody I have no right to fall in lo...
[Louis has forgotten where he parked] Melanie: Jesus, but if you two are not the biggest pair of fuck-ups I've ever met in my entire life. How did you ever rob a bank? When you robbed banks, did you forget where your car was then too? No wonder you w...
Charlie Hogan: Besides, me and Billy found him first! Teddy: Yeah, Vern told us how you found him! [in a high, mocking voice] Teddy: Oh Billy, I wish we'd never boosted that car! Oh Billy, I think I just turned my Fruit-of-the-Looms into a fudge fact...
Cal: I'm so mad at you. I'm really mad at you for what you did. But I'm mad at myself too. Because I should not have jumped out of that car - I should have fought for you. Because you fight for your soul mates. Emily: I miss you.
Norm Gunderson: I love you, Margie. Marge Gunderson: I love you, Norm. [she leaves, closing the door; after getting in the car briefly, she comes back in the door] Marge Gunderson: Hon? Norm Gunderson: Yah? Marge Gunderson: Prowler needs a jump.
Officer Franklin: I see guys like you in here every fuckin' day. Officer Garden: Every fuckin' day! Officer Franklin: Yeah let's all go to Vegas and get really fucked up! Officer Garden: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Officer Franklin: Let's go steal a cop car be...
Vincent Hanna: They dumped all our surveillance? Detective Casals: Yeah, at the same time 9PM Vincent Hanna: I had coffee with McCauley half an hour ago Detective Casals: We were on you, then he drives into LAX where surveillance can't fly over becau...
George Bailey: Now, come on, get your clothes on, and we'll stroll up to my car and get... Oh, I'm sorry. I'll stroll. You fly. Clarence: I can't fly! I haven't got my wings. George Bailey: You haven't got your wings. Yeah, that's right.
Hooper: Ah. Just like I thought... He came up with the Gulf Stream - from southern waters. [he pulls a Louisiana license plate from the shark. Brody examines it] Brody: He didn't eat a car, did he? Hooper: Naw, a tiger shark's like a garbage can, it'...
[last lines] Henry: I want to go home. Mr. Goodkat: Neither of us is going home for a long time, kid. [Goodkat turns on the car radio] Mr. Goodkat: My name is Goodkat. You can call me Mr. Goodkat. [a song called 'Kansas City Shuffle' begins to play o...
Joanna: Why don't you just call me when you grow up! Oh, wait, you know what, that's probably never gonna happen, so just don't call me, OK? [Joanna starts to close car door] Peter Gibbons: Say hello to Lumbergh for me!
