Corky: If there's one thing I can't stand about sleeping
with women, it's all the fucking mind-reading.
Violet: We're not that different, Corky. Corky: Ah, let's
see. This is the part where you tell me what matters is
on the inside, and that inside of you there's a little dyke
just like me. Violet: No, she's nothing like you. She's
a whole lot smarter than you are.
Corky: So what are you saying? You don't have sex with men?
Violet: I don't. Corky: Oh, for Christ's sake, Violet, I
heard you. Thin walls, remember?
Violet: Shelly knows what I am. He saw me in a bar with
another woman. Corky: Yeah, I suppose he just wants to watch.
Corky: You planned this whole thing. You dropped that earring
down the sink on purpose, didn't you? Violet: If I say yes,
will you take your hand away? Corky: No. Violet: Yes.
Violet:
That's a great tattoo. Beautiful labrys. Are you surprised
I know what it is? Corky: Maybe. Violet: I have a tattoo.
Would you like to see it?
Violet: You seem uncomfortable. Do I make you nervous, Corky?
Corky: No. [drinks from beer bottle] Violet: Thirsty, maybe?
Corky: Either pull the trigger or get that fucking thing
out of my face.
Corky: When you get tired of Cagney and Lacey, find me.
Violet: We make our own choices, we pay our own prices.
Violet: I have this image of you - inside of me - like a
part of me.
Violet: I'm not apologizing for what I did. I'm apologizing
for what I didn't do.
Corky: What are you doing? Violet: Isn't it obvious? I'm
trying to seduce you. Corky: Why? Violet: Because I want...
to. I've wanted to ever since I saw you that day in the
elevator. I know you don't believe me, but I can prove it
to you. You can't believe what you see. But you can believe...
what you feel. I've been thinking about you all day.
Corky: For me, stealing's always been a lot like sex. Two
people who want the same thing: they get in a room, they
talk about it. They start to plan. It's kind of like flirting.
It's kind of like... foreplay, 'cause the more they talk
about it, the wetter they get. The only difference is, I
can fuck someone I've just met. But to steal? I need to
know someone like I know myself.
Ceasar: What did she do to you? Violet: Everything you couldn't.
Corky: You know what the difference is between you and me,
Violet? Violet: No. Corky: Me neither.
Ceasar: You don't wanna shoot me, Vi. Do ya. Do ya? I know
you don't. Violet: Ceasar, you don't know shit.
Violet: Oh, Johnny hits on me all the time. He hits on anything
in high heels.
Violet: Gino doesn't speak much English, or at least he
pretends not to.
Gino Marzzone: Cesare, you gotta do me a favor. A personal
favor for me. You gotta start respecting Johnny, the way
you respect me. Capisce? Good, good. And you, Johnny. You
gotta stop acting stupid. You gonna earn this respect that
Cesare's gonna give. Capisce? Good, done!
