The Strange One

"Come on. Let's go to college and get some knowledge."

"Listen, Cockroach, if you don't stop following me around and bugging me, I'm gonna stuff your nauseating carcass into one of those artillery pieces, pull the lanyard and blow you out to sea. Now do you understand me?"

"Well, sir, it's got to be one of two things. Either you're lying, in which case there'd be no whiskey in that tube- or you're right. I did it all, just as you say. Now, if I was such a Machiavellian, crafty, conniving character as all that, would I be so stupid as to leave whiskey in that tube for you to come along and find it? I don't think so, sir. It stands to reason that thing would be washed with loving care."

"I can't sign that statement. Because there's something in it, that isn't true at all. Sure, Georgie was framed- my hands are clean! Gatt beat him up, those freshmen poured whiskey in him, and Koble carried him down to the quadrangle. And who would believe all this bunk, anyhow? How could I make Gatt beat up Georgie? He's twice my size! And these freshmen, did I hold a pistol to their heads and make them do this? DID I?! Oh, no, no. They're just as guilty as I am."

"I'll be back! I'll get you guys! You can't do this to Jocko DeParis!"

"It's wrong to blame this school, Robert. It ain't the school's fault about Jocko. Shoot, that boy'd been the way he is no matter where he'd gone."

"Well, it's easy for you to talk, 'cause you're plannin' on leavin' anyhow. How about the rest of us? Me and Rog's got a lot to lose. Gonna get s. Credit's gonna be no good at another school. Three years we've spent here ain't gonna amount to a doggone thing."
