Vince: This isn't going away. You won't talk to me before the show, you won't talk to me after the show. It's like you're avoiding me.
Tess: Well, I didn't divorce you to spend more time with you.
Tess: You didn't tell me you could sing like that.
Vince: Have you read this letter from the bank?
Tess: Vincent. How many times have I told you? No business during business hours.
Tess: They'll come to hear HER sing.
Rusty Dennis: First you told me he was gonna be retarded, then you told me he was gonna be blind and deaf. If I'd dug his grave every time one of you geniuses told me he was gonna die, I'd be eating fuckin' chop suey in China by now.
Rocky Dennis: What's his problem, Ma?
Rusty Dennis: Nothing. He's just another asshole. You let that negative dreck in and it'll put ya away. You can be a chickenshit and die or be a mensch and keep makin' yourself well.
Rocky Dennis: Mom. Do I look like a freak to you?
Rusty Dennis: No.
Rocky Dennis: You know, your always been big on telling me when my face doesn't matter, but, it does. Doesn't it? You think that I can't even get a girl to like me unless you pay for her.
Rusty Dennis: That's not true.
Rocky Dennis: Bullshit.
Rusty Dennis: Bullshit yourself. You know lots of young guys got problems getting girls. Well, what if I was your dad and I did the same thing?
Rocky Dennis: I'd hate that too.
Loretta Castorini: Bless me, Father, for I have sinned. It has been two months since my last confession.
Priest: What sins have you to confess?
Loretta Castorini: Twice I took the name of the Lord in vain, once I slept with the brother of my fiancee, and once I bounced a check at the liquor store, but that was really an accident.
Priest: Then it's not a sin. But... what was that second thing you said, Loretta?
Johnny: In time you will see that this is the best thing.
Loretta Castorini: In time you'll drop dead and I'll come to your funeral in a red dress.
Loretta Castorini: What am I going to tell him?
Cosmo Castorini: Tell him the truth. They find out anyway.
Ronny Cammareri: A bride without a head.
Loretta Castorini: A wolf without a foot.
Loretta Castorini: I'm getting married.
Cosmo Castorini: Again?
Loretta Castorini: Yeah.
Cosmo Castorini: You did this once before, it didn't work out.
Loretta Castorini: The guy died.
Rose: How's the mother?
Loretta Castorini: She's dying. But I could still hear her big mouth.
Rose: Do you love him, Loretta?
Loretta Castorini: Aw, ma, I love him awful.
Rose: Oh, God, that's too bad.
Ronny Cammareri: You're gonna marry my brother? Why you wanna sell your life short? Playing it safe is just about the most dangerous thing a woman like you could do. You waited for the right man the first time, why didn't you wait for the right man again?
Loretta Castorini: He didn't come.
Ronny Cammareri: I'm here.
Loretta Castorini: You're late.
Rose: Would anyone like some oatmeal?
Ronny Cammareri: Yes, Mrs. Castorini, I would love some oatmeal.
Loretta Castorini: No, we don't want any oatmeal.
Cosmo Castorini: It looks stupid. It's a pinky ring. It's a man's ring.
Loretta Castorini: It's temporary.
Cosmo Castorini: Everything is temporary! That don't excuse nothin'.
Ronny Cammareri: You look beautiful.
Loretta Castorini: I had it done.
Ronny Cammareri: This was painted by Marc Chagall. And, as you can see, he was a very great artist.
Loretta Castorini: It's kind of little gaudy, don't you think?
Ronny Cammareri: Well, he was havin' some fun.
Rose: Are you drunk?
Loretta Castorini: No. Are you drunk?
Rose: No... but I have a hangover.
