View Quote [After being beaten to a pulp in the opening scene.] For the record I'll call myself Mr. Parker. My associate will be Mr. Longbaugh.

View Quote There is a natural order. The way things are meant to be. An order that says the good guys always win, that you die when it's your time or when you have it coming, that the ending is always happy-if only for someone else. Now at some point it became clear that our path had been chosen for us and we had nothing to offer the world. Our options narrowing down to petty crime or minimum wage, so we stepped off the path and went looking for the fortune that we knew was looking for us. Once off the path you do what you can to eat, keep moving. You don't blow your ghost of a chance with nickel and dime, no possessions, no comforts. Need is the ultimate monkey. A pint of your blood can fetch you fifty bucks, a shot of ****--three grand. You keep your life simple and you can literally self sustain.

View Quote You take Los Angeles, okay? If I say that Los Angeles has become, over the years, a Mecca for homosexual migration, I am in the right. But look what I am saying; I am making it sound like ****s are nomadic if not predatory miscreants who have some implied need to move around. I am also likening them to Muslims, or Muslims to them. Whereas saying L.A. is filled with ****s is just being honest.
