"Of what a girl did . . . what a boy did ... of ecstasy and revenge!"

"Your father. He's the purest man there is, isn't he? Oh, he thought he had me all tied up with his purity. Now I give you $5000 of the money I made to save his purity. If you don't think that's funny, you'd better not go to college."

"I got the toughest house on the coast, and the finest clientele. Half the stinking city hall go here. They sneak in at night, and I walk in this front door in the day time."

"Your father still thinks he's living in the Bible, huh?"

"Mr. Trask, it's awful not to be loved. It's the worst thing in the world. Don't ask me - even if you could - how I know that. I just know it. It makes you mean, and violent, and cruel. And that's the way Cal has always felt, Mr. Trask. All his life! Maybe you didn't mean it that way - but it's true. You never gave him your love. You never asked for his. You never asked him for one thing. But you must give him some sign, Mr. Trask, some sign that you love him... or he'll never be a man. All his life he'll feel guilty and alone unless you release him."

"Man has a choice and it's a choice that makes him a man."

"Son, I'd be happy if you'd give me something like your brother's given me. Something honest and human and good. Don't be angry, Son. If you want to give me a present, give me a good life. That's something I could value."

"Everything seems like nothing to me now, 'cause I want you in my bed. I don't care if I burn in hell. I don't care if you burn in hell. The past and the future is a joke to me now. I see that they're nothing. I see they ain't here. The only thing that's here is you - and me."

"I lost my hand! I lost my bride! Johnny has his hand! Johnny has his bride!"

"Bring me the big knife, I'm gonna cut my throat."

"That woman didn't leave you, OK. You can't see what you are, and I see everything... You are a wolf!... That woman was a trap for you. She caught you and you couldn't get away. So you, you chewed off your own foot. That was the price you had to pay for your freedom... And now, now you're afraid because you know the big part of you is a wolf that has the courage to bite off its own hand to save itself from the trap of the wrong love. That's why there's been no woman since that wrong woman. OK? You're scared to death of what the wolf would do if you try and make that mistake again!"
