Quotations

Why is he tailing me all over town? Does he think I'm pretty or what?

I knew you gone sour, Ryan, but I didn't know you gone simple.

Her name wasn't really Sue Alabama... It was Sue something Greek and unpronounceable.

She primed him and I went in on the cleanup.

Sex was nearly all Sue Alabama ever needed, and she could use it the way some guys use a blackjack.

I can't figure him for a cannon. The only thing Pen Pal would ever use is the U.S. Mail... Extortion.
