How much am I gonna win tonight? Ten grand, I'm gonna win ten grand in one night. Well, who's gonna beat me?...I mean, what other pool room is there in the country where a guy can walk out with ten grand in one night
Eddie Felson
He is great! Geez, that old Fat Man. Look at the way he moves, like a dancer...And those fingers, them chubby fingers. And that stroke, it's like he's uh, like he's playin' a violin or somethin'.
Eddie Felson
You know, I gotta hunch, Fat Man. I've gotta hunch it's me from here-on in...I mean, did that ever happen to you? When all of a sudden, you feel like you can't miss? 'Cause I dreamed about this game, Fat Man. And I dreamed about this game every night on the road...You know, this is my table, man, I own it...
Eddie Felson
This guy told me when I came to the big city, I'd have to have a machine gun, so I bought one.
Eddie Felson
I'm gonna beat that Fat Man, with that curly hair and those diamond rings and that carnation.
Eddie Felson
With that fifteen hundred, I could have beat him. That's all I needed Charlie...You'd love to keep me hustlin' for ya, huh, wouldn't ya? I mean, a couple more years with me scufflin' around, in them little towns and those back alleys, you might make yourself enough to get a little pool room back in Oakland - six tables and a handbook on the side...Lay down and die by yourself.
Eddie Felson
Boy! Everybody, everybody wants a piece of me
Eddie Felson
Maybe I'm not such a high-class piece of property right now. But that twenty-five percent slice of somethin' big is better than a hundred percent slice of nothin'.
Eddie Felson
Two ships that pass in the night should always buy each other breakfast.
Sarah Packard
I'm a college girl, two days a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays, I go to college...I'm the emancipated type, real emancipated...I've got nothing else to do on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Sarah Packard
Please, please, you're too hungry.
Sarah Packard
When I'm drunk, I lie...Look, I've got troubles and I think maybe you've got troubles. Maybe it'd be better if we just leave each other alone.
Sarah Packard
I've been living here almost three years. Now in three days, it seems as if I know everybody. I pass people on the street. I want to stop them and say, 'Listen, I got a fella.'
Sarah Packard
We have a contract of depravity. All we have to do is pull the blinds down.
Sarah Packard
I'm not drunk. I'm lame.
