"I'm somebody now, Harry. Everybody likes me. Soon, millions of people will see me and they'll all like me. I'll tell them about you, and your father, how good he was to us. Remember? It's a reason to get up in the morning. It's a reason to lose weight, to fit in the red dress. It's a reason to smile. It makes tomorrow all right. What have I got Harry, hm? Why should I even make the bed, or wash the dishes? I do them, but why should I? I'm alone. Your father's gone, you're gone. I got no one to care for. What have I got, Harry? I'm lonely. I'm old. Now when I get the sun, I smile."

"In the end it's all nice."

"And you should see my Harry on television. We're giving the prizes away. I just wanted to be on the show!"

"[on her pills] Purple in the morning, blue in the afternoon, orange in the evening. [to her refrigerator] There's my three meals, Mr. Smartypants. And green at night. Just like that, one, two, three, four."

"Harold, I'm gonna be on television."

"I'm thinking thin."

"You can't push me around!"

"Ray Teal - Motorcycle Cop"

"Ruby Dandridge - Mabel"

"William Forrest - Lt. Col. Simpson"

"George Chandler - Bartender Louis Ord"

"James Bell - Father Logan"

"Martinelli: You place me in an extremely distasteful position, Mr. Murdock. Brutality has always revolted me."

"Marvin Miller - Krause"

"I hated every part of her but I couldn't figure her out yet. I wanted to see her the way Johnny had. I wanted to hear that song of hers with Johnny's ears. Maybe she was alright. And maybe Christmas comes in July. But I didn't believe it."

"I didn’t like the feeling I had about her - the way I wanted to put my hand on her arm, the way I kept smelling that jasmine in her hair, the way I kept hearing that song she'd sung. Yeah, I was walking into something, alright."

"He Doesn't Trust Anyone...Especially Women!"

"I remember there was a whiff of jasmine just before I was knocked out. Maybe, maybe it was her. Suddenly I got a feeling I know it was. Jasmine."

"[referring to two war souvenir hand grenades] If I were you, I'd turn 'em in to Army Ordnance. You start coughin' too hard with one of them in your hand, there'll be nothing left but the gold in your teeth... if it don't melt!"

"There's something about that big lug I didn't like. Maybe it's calling me friend."

"I'm the brass-knucks-in-the-teeth-to-dance-time type."

"[on the phone] Whattya mean, am I checkin' up on you? Of course. I am. I forgot to tell you, I don't trust anybody - especially women!"

"You know, you do awful good. I came here to - but go ahead. Put Christmas in your eyes and keep your voice low. Tell me about paradise and all the things I'm missing. I haven't had a good laugh since before Johnny was murdered."

"William Prince - Sgt. Johnny Drake"

"Charles Cane - Lt. Kincaid"

"Morris Carnovsky - Martinelli"

"Lizabeth Scott - Coral "Dusty"/"Mike" Chandler"

"Humphrey Bogart - Capt. Warren "Rip" Murdock"

"Johnny, why don't you get rid of the grief you got for that blonde, whoever she is? Every mile we go, you sweat worse with the same pain. Didn't I tell you all females are the same with their faces washed?"

"There's no compromise here."

"There never was a Bogart like this... and here's the reason..."
