I kept glancing at her animated face, scrunched up as though imitating an adult. I got hit with that overwhelming feeling. It sneaked up on me. Parents get it from time to time. You are looking at your child and it is an ordinary moment, not like the...
There's no sense forcing yourself if you don't feel like it. Tell you the truth, I've had sex with lots of guys, but I think I did it mostly out of fear. I was scared not to have somebody putting his arms around me, so I could never say no. That's al...

Brandy: In every war, there is an enemy. I watched my mother being hlaf-beaten to death, and watched as bloodand tears streamed down her face. I felt useless and scared, and furious at the same time. I can still feel the sting of the belt on my back ...
Clemenza: Damn it, Sonny's running scared. He's thinking of going to the matresses already. We got to go pick up some stuff at this address. You know any good spots on the west side? Paulie Gatto: Yeah, I'll think about it. Clemenza: Well, think abou...

Mike: Good morning, Roz, my succulent little garden snail. And who will we be scaring today? Roz: Wazowski! You didn't file your paperwork last night. Mike: Oh, that darn paperwork! Wouldn't it be easier if it all just blew away? Roz: Don't let it ha...
Anne Kronenberg: My girlfriend says you guys don't like women, I'm just asking: Is there a place for us in all this, or are you guys all scared of girls? Harvey Milk: Okay, gentlemen: We've already got a tinkerbell, a lotus blossom, we've got Jim and...

Max Schumacher: I feel lousy about the pain that I've caused my wife and kids. I feel guilty and conscience-stricken, and all of those things you think sentimental, but which my generation calls simple human decency. And I miss my home, because I'm b...
Captain Darrow: Come here... come here, you little chicken shit! Stanley Goodspeed: You shoot me, I drop this, we're both dead! Captain Darrow: [points his gun away] Come on, come on, don't be scared, I won't hurt you! Come on... Stanley Goodspeed: Y...
Joey Gazelle: [upon finding Anzor shot] What the fuck? Where's the kid? Huh? Where's the kid? Anzor "Duke" Yugorsky: Fuck him. I'm the one who's shot. Joey Gazelle: Who is he? Is he still in the house? Anzor "Duke" Yugorsky: The little snotfuck ran o...
