Simon: [on the phone in jail] Dad, what do you mean "Simon Who?" Yeah. Good. How's mom? Good. Got arrested. Yeah, jail. Uh. Well, yes, well, uh, if, well, it has been growing for two months, I mean, it's gotta be longer, right? Well, some people have bad associations when they see long hair, and some have them when they see long Cadillacs. Oh, I solved my identity crisis. Yeah. Hey, lemme - I'll - I'll call you later, OK? Bye-bye.
Linda: It's a waste. This strike is part of something real. That's better than being a rowing jock.
Simon: Now, look, most of the guys on the crew aren't jocks. I mean, uh, crew doesn't even have as many WASPs as it should have, according to the population percentage of WASPs in the nation.
Simon: Well, eh, anybody for an extra-Revolutionary relationship?
Simon: I met this chick. I slept with her in the office and she's going with this creep or something. So, nothing's going to come out of it. Its just a big drag.
Policeman at Gate: Look at these kids. Look at 'em. What do they want from us, huh? With their long, dirty hair. They say they want the niggers to have their playground and their swimmin' pool. Terrific. As far as I'm concerned, you take every nigger in the city and throw 'em straight in the swimmin' pool. See? I'm with the kids. You know what I mean?
Policeman at Gate: I've seen niggers shootin' heroin. And shootin' anything they can get their hands on.
Simon, Linda, Student Protestors: [singing] All we are saying is give peace a chance, All we are saying is give peace a chance, All we are saying is give peace a chance, All we are saying is give peace a chance, All we are saying is give peace a chance, All we are saying is give peace a chance, All we are saying is give peace a chance...
Student Meeting Chairman: Okay, lets get the meeting to order here. We have a lot of business to cover. There seems to be some question about whether or not I should be the chairman of this meeting and we should vote about whether or not I should be chairman of this meeting. So, I guess the only fair way to run this is that we should move the question, first of all, of whether or not to have a vote. So, right now we're voting about whether or not we're gonna vote on if I should chair the meeting. Okay? I'll move the question. How many are in favor of taking a vote? Okay. We're going to vote. Okay, now, this question is whether or not I should chair the meeting. You can count the votes so we'll know everything's cool. All in favor? I'm glad we did everything on the up and up. Democratically, we won't have to worry about that any more. Okay, the question at hand, the most important one, we have a lot of details and everything to take care of, but, the most important question is the leaflets: why we strike, to explain to the people outside of the building why the people in the building are in the building.
Linda: No grass though. If we get busted, we got to be clean.
Simon: Well, actually, I don't - I don't use anything. I used to snort - everything. I got tired of it. I had a couple of bad experiences with acid and I - don't need it anymore.
Simon: No, I mean, really, I - carbon monoxide - I used to sniff it all the time, you know. Sit outside the tunnels. I was a carbon mohead for three years.
Coach: Okay, now, get 'em down there. I want to see bruised asses. Lower! Loooower! Lower!
Simon: Drafted, murdered, buried, reborn as a politician.
Simon: Unless this school gives the building and the playground back to the neighborhood, unless this school gives some room for some jet black faces around here, unless this school gives up its war research program, unless this school gives up the fucking 19th Century and calls off the pigs, it's gonna be all over. Now, you've been hearing about revolution, right? Watching it on the television, reading it in the newspapers. Well, it's not there. It's here! Here! In every room, in every toilet of this idiot school there is a - there is a - I'm sorry - there is a - there is a kid waiting for tonight. And unless you call off the pigs, its gonna be a mess. And war. And - not because there has to be, but, because you started it.
