"It's like I'm being tied to the hood of a yellow rental truck, being packed in with fertilizer, and fuel oil, pushed off a cliff by a suicidal Mickey Mouse!"

"Mimi: Goodbye love, hello disease."

"Mimi: Goodbye love, just came to say, goodbye love."

"Roger: Mark has got his work. They say Mark lives for his work. And Mark's in love with his work. Mark hides in his work."

"Benny: I always hated that dog."

"Mark: Why am I the witness? And when I capture it on film, will it mean that is the end, and I'm alone?"

"So let's find a bar, so dark we forget who we are, where all the scars from the nevers and maybes die!"

"In the evening I've got to roam—can't sleep in the city of neon and chrome."

"Get up—life's too quick. I know someplace sick, where this chick'll dance in the flames!"

"Meow... HA!"

"But now and then I like to feel good."

"We could light the candle… Oh, what'd you do with my candle!"

"How do you document real life, when real life is getting more like fiction each day?"

"[In Goodbye Love] (To Roger) Perhaps it's because I'm the one of us to survive!"

"(With Roger, Collins, Angel, and support group while filming) Will I loose my dignity? Will someone care? Will I wake tomorrow, from this nightmare?"

"Mutual Masturbation!"

"Hey, Collins, don't get your ass kicked this time!"

"December 24, 1990, 10 PM, Eastern Standard Time. I can't believe a year went by so fast."

"Alexi? Mark. Call me a hypocrite. I need to finish my own film. I quit!"

"I see it my film!"

"That drip of hurt, that pint of shame, goes away—just play the game!"

"Hey, guys, all our shit's back!"

"[About Maureen committing to Joanne] This can't be happening."

"Look, this is not my Bar Mitzvah, give it back to me!"

"That sleezy news show Buzzline wants to take a meeting."

"And Roger will attempt to write a bittersweet, evocative song... that doesn't remind us of "Musetta's Waltz.""

"First I got a protest to save."

"There are times, when we're dirt broke and hungry, and I ask myself "What the hell am I still doing here?" and then they call, and I remember..."

"The music ignites the night with passionate fire."

"December 24, 9 PM, Eastern Standard Time. From here on in, I shoot without a script. See if anything comes from it, instead of my old shit."

"You were the song all along, and before the song dies… I should tell you, I should tell you, I have always loved you. You can see it in my eyes!"

"I hear it, I hear it, I hear it my song!"

"I see Mimi everywhere."

"All your words are nice Mimi, but love's not a three way street! You'll never share real love until you love yourself, I should know!"

"Mark's got his work, they say Mark lives for his work and Mark's in love with his work. Mark hides in his work."

"It's true you're with this yuppie scum?"

"That's a full service woman you got there."

"[To Angel, who's knocing the padlock off the door] Watch your fingers."

"You wanna prove me wrong, come back another day!"

"Your sweet whisper, I just can't handle! So take your hair in the moonlight, your brown eyes, goodbye goodnight!"

"I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs."
