Movie quotes

  • (..) You didn't need this shit! You could've coasted on what you had goin'. Listen. I'm gonna tell you something I never told a customer before. Personally, I never made a bet in my life. You know why? Because I've observed firsthand the people addicted to gambling. What we would call degenerates. (..)
