Movie quotes

  • (..) It's very sweet of you to drag your crippled arse all the way over here to see me. Why do you think I want anything from you, you spindly legged, knock-kneed boat-builder? It's nice to see how much you've matured since I've been away. Matured? What, you think I want to be an old fool like you? (..)
