Quotes 

• Skip : You still owe me a blow job.

  Jonathan : You're right. I forgot all about that.

  Skip : Jesus, Jonathan, you can't forget these things, my man.

• Mr. Burroughs : Government control, Jonathan, is anathema to the free-enterprise system. Any intelligent person knows you cannot interfere with the laws of supply and demand.

  Jonathan : I see your point, sir. That's the reason why I'm not for tariffs.

  Mr. Burroughs : Right. No, wrong! You gotta have tariffs, son. How you gonna compete with the damn foreigners? Gotta have tariffs.

• Jonathan : I'm sorry. It was a lousy thing to do. But I was just so humiliated I just had to kill myself.

• Jonathan : Why am I such a turd?

• Jonathan : One thing I don't need right now is the world according to Skippy here. Do us both a favour, huh? Just shut up.

  Skip : Ok, Mr. Depth. Wallow in it.

• Jonathan : Hey, I got it, I'll drop dead. Wouldn't that be nice, huh? I could shoot myself. No, you shoot me and mount my head on the wall next to the moose. You could stretch the panties between my ears. Come on, you'd love that.

• Ellen : Have you ever been in love?

  Jonathan : I was kinda fond of that hundred dollar bill.

  Ellen : Have you?

  Jonathan : You're asking me, the turd?

  Ellen : Well, you look like a pretty - sensitive turd to me.

• Skip : You're going. I don't want to see your ass back here until you succeed. In fact, I'm not gonna let you in the room until you bring me - her panties.

  Jonathan : Oh, come on. Look, Skip, I'm not like you. I don't have your - charm, your finesse, your, uh...

  Skip : Class.

• Jonathan : Cut it out!

  Skip : I'm gonna kick your fuckin' ass!

• Jonathan : Bones, take care.

• Jonathan : I'm no good with women.

  Skip : I know that, you know that. The broads that go to the Free N Easy, they don't know that.

• Jonathan : Only a dick would fall for that.

  Ellen : Well, you might be right.

• Jonathan : If you'll excuse me, I'm gonna find a very tall building, with a fabulous view, and jump off.

• Skip : You've gotta go to dinner. Come on. I can't believe you'd forgo eggplant surprise.

  Jonathan : I'm not hungry.

  Skip : That's no reason not to eat the shit.

• Ellen : Oh, God, I'm so hot. Wouldn't you prefer - doing this - lying down?

  Jonathan : Uh, yeah, sure. Whatever.

• Jonathan : Uh - this is an elevator.

  Ellen : Really? I love elevators. I think they're just wonderful. I *love* the way they go up - and down. Do you?

  Jonathan : Oh, yeah. I think it's great.

  Ellen : Which do you prefer? Going up? Or, going down?

  Jonathan : Um - up. Up is fine.

  Ellen : Really? I think going down is much more exciting.

  Jonathan : Well, yeah, now that you mention it, down is, eh...

  Ellen : Of course, going up - can be a thrill. It depends.

  [unzips Jonathan's pants] 

  Jonathan : That's what I think. Yeah, up is - down is...

• Ellen : Do you think there's something wrong with me?

  Jonathan : Well, how do I know? I mean, I don't know you.

  Ellen : We can fix that.

• Skip : Welcome to Toad Hall.

  Jonathan : I have never seen such a vulgar display of wealth in my entire life. How do I get one?

  Skip : Well, you can do what we did. Bootlegging.

• Mr. Burroughs : Jonathan?

  Jonathan : Yes, sir?

  Mr. Burroughs : Evidently you and I have something in common. Can you guess what that might be?
