Movie quotes

  • (..) No, no. My family are Democ... We are Jews. Goes... How quaint! Thank you. Please write in my rebellious streak. You know in Oklahoma, we weren't even allowed to mingle with Jews growing up. Really! You guys are money lenders. No, we control everything, actually. I didn't even see a Jew No. (..)
