Why would go out and flatter someone you were gonna fight? / Psychological ploy? / Oh, I guess if he's wearing a particularly nice pair of shorts, it couldn't hurt to mention it.

Gee, no wonder Jack didn't want you to talk to me. You're so discouraging.

Are they right very often? / Oh, wait, don't tell me, man. This could shake my confidence.

Hey, you know, you're the kind of guy that gives Italians a bad name. / I'm not Italian. / Well, do they know you're doing this?

Better manager? What do I need a better manager for? I got you, Jack. When it comes to training fighters, you wrote the book, bud.

I'm gonna be with you all the way, in spirit. / What do you mean 'in spirit'? I mean, ain't you gonna be in my corner?

Use a pay phone. I'll call you.

Yeah, well, I'm glad you're gone. I don't need your help anyway. I don't need nobody's help. I'll win this fight alone with nobody's help.

Hey, I feel sorry for you, man. You're fighting an angry man with a cause.

You're going down hard tonight, man. / Tony Banta don't take no dives for nobody. / I know, man. That's why they got me to take the dive.

How do you live with yourself?

Think you should wait. Think you should hang in there, stay cool, and sooner or later, even though he says he's not going to, Alex is gonna tell you what to do.

I have been looking for something to fill the void ever since my last canker sore.

Hey, what were you doing, Louie? / I was a cabdriver.

A little slice of heaven. A piece of my wife's peach pie.

Top o' the morning to you, Louie. / Cram it up your bagpipe.

is gonna be squandering his precious talent sitting in a cage doing a job a chimpanzee could do.

How's that? / Yeah, who's gonna bring the Bromo?

Did he say he'd wipe your nose for you, too? Beat it! This job stinks enough without being a baby-sitter.

Five bucks for a cab with a heater?

Thanks for spoiling the ending, Reiger!

He became a crosswalk guard.

These brownies are great. I'm really stoned.

Gordon... Gordon, you're not crying. / W-Well, what am I doing? / You're smiling and happy.

Congratulations, Gordon, that was almost a complete sentence.
