While my father sang, Pedroza stared at me. By that time my eye pupils were staring at him, too, like a terrier that's got hold of a fox.
Heroes have a rough time because they stand up when they ought not to, they speak when they ought not to; they always have to go that extra mile.
[on who the Voice meant by "Ease his pain."] Ray Kinsella: It was you... Shoeless Joe Jackson: No, Ray. It was YOU.
[Shoeless Joe Jackson walks into the cornfield and disappears. Ray turns to his wife] Ray Kinsella: We're keeping this field.
Dr. Peter Venkman: See ya on the other side, Ray. Dr Ray Stantz: Nice working with you, Dr. Venkman.
Ray Charles: From now on you guys are gonna be called the Raylettes. Margie Hendricks: Does that mean we have to "let Ray"?
