Marion Cobretti: You're a disease, and I'm the cure.

Charlie Carbone: It's a continent, Louis. He can go very far.
Louis Booker: I know it's a continent. I read the book.
Charlie Carbone: Did you happen to read the chapter on not putting your jacket on a wild animal?
Louis Booker: No, but I did read the chapter on how an aborigine can kill a white man with a twig. Do you want to see that one?

Leslie Rodgers: How do you sleep at night?
Parker: I don't drink coffee after 7.
