- [Duane has just thrown Irwin's book into a bucket of water]
- Lindy: I'm so tired of you running off at your mouth it's getting me down honey. Why don't you just leave? And be an assassin? Or is the only thing you're good at shooting off is your big mouth?
- Duane: Will you please get out of my face you sorry looking faggot.
- Lindy: Who you calling sorry looking?
- [Everybody laughs]
- Duane: Can't ya'll see "she" aint funny?
- [laughter stops]
- Duane: She's just another poor example of how the system is destroying our men.
- Lindy: Honey, I'm more man than you'll ever be and more woman than you'll ever get.
- Lonnie: Mr. B, about Abdullah... I'm really sorry about Abdullah. I know he's really wired up. I wish you'd think about giving him another chance.
- Mr. B: I gave him a thousand chances. That's it! I don't want that bad-tempered, trouble maker around my car wash anymore!
- Lonnie: Mr. B, the man is just confused. He really is.
- Mr. B: Lonnie, now is not the time.
- Lonnie: Mr. B, every week I keep trying to talk to you, and every week you keep telling me "now is not the time". I've been working for you for over a year now. When is it gonna be time?
- Mr. B: Look... I don't want to talk to you anymore about Duane! All right?
- Lonnie: All right, let's don't talk about "Duane". Let's talk about me. I got to have more money, Mr. B. And I can't make it on what your payin' me right now. I've got two children to raise.
- Mr. B: Lonnie, I can't. That Blue Bird Car Wash down the street is driving me out of business...
- Lonnie: Mr. B, I keep telling you, you've got a big lot here! If you organize this thing right and spend a little money here and there, you could be making twice as much as you are now!
- Mr. B: Lonnie, I know you've got ideas. You've got ideas. Don't I always pay you extra for opening and closing?
- [shaking his head with frustration and disgust, Lonnie walks out]
- Duane: Why don't you tell everybody how you "got so rich" Daddy Rich? This is one nigger you aint fooling! I'm onto the game you're running to these people here.
- Daddy Rich: What can I do for you, brother?
- Duane: The same thing you're doing for everyone else. Nothing!
- Daddy Rich: Guess you don't believe in my church. The Church of Divine Economic Spirituality.
- Duane: Yeah, that's right. I don't belive in it.
- Daddy Rich: So, you don't belive in God?
- Duane: Not "your" God. I'm a Muslim.
- Daddy Rich: My God's doing all right by me. Why don't you come on board brother, and I'll take you nearer to God thy hee, and I'll show you everything it takes to make it with money. 'Cause it's better to have money than not having it. There is a good place in this world for money and I know where it is. It's right here in my pocket!
- Duane: You talkin' just like a pimp!
- [everyone jeers and looks at Duane with scorn]
- Duane: [to camera] If you are watching this in the future, know that time has had its way with us, and that we knew it would. And it will with you. There is no escaping this. In a strange way, it's what makes life so beautiful and strange, that nothing alive stays the same.
- Newscaster: [voice-over] This is Billy Bass and this is the news. ln Washington, a new scandal, as Congressional investigators probed into the rumors of male Congressional aides being hired by male Congressmen in exchange for sexual favors... .

- Newscaster: [voice-over] In baseball, another record was set when Reggie Jackson hit two consecutive grand slam home runs in one inning, to aid in the 16-1 undeniable slaughter of his former teammates. Now, that's what l call swingin' a big bat.
- T.C.: What's your secret, Daddy Rich?
- Daddy Rich: The secret? There are no secrets! Believe that. Except believe in the Lord! And believe in yourself. And most of all, belief in that federal green!
- Scruggs: [on a payphone] l'd like to talk to someone and get some information about a social disease. Well, l can't right now, l'm workin'. A-huh. No. Not yet. Well. Well, it's just kinda hangin' there, lookin' sick.
- Leon 'Mr. B' Barrow: Da-da-da-da. Da-da-da-da. Don't they ever get sick of it? You'd think just once, just once, they'd wanna hear Frank Sinatra or Perry Como. Huh?
- Marsha: Well, it's your place. Play what you want to.
- Duane - Abdullah: l'm warning you. You understand me? l'm gonna burn this place. You think I need your stinkin' slave job? You think you're gonna be the boss? You ain't! And l'm gonna git you for this! And l'm warnin' you. You understand me? l'm gonna git you!

- Mr. B: Look, is there any other way we can straighten this out, officer?
- Arresting Cop: [to Mr. B] Afraid not. Stand back, please. We have a warrant for his arrest.
- Slide: Listen to me! I gave my sister who works at the May Company a check for $75 to pay it off. I would have paid the tickets off myself but I thew it away, man.
- Arresting Cop: Tell it to the judge!
- The Taxi Driver: You probably noticed I ain't got nothing against you people. I ain't got nothing against you people. I ain't got nothing against any people. That's what I think we need, is more love in the world. I don't know about marriage, I don't know if I'd go that far. But, ah, I believe in the lunch counter thing. I think if a guy wants to be able to get something to eat, he oughta be able to get something to eat, you know.
