Quotes 

• Rizzo : Why is Saturday any different?

  Young Michael : cause on Saturday we can hit back, look they don't fuck with you like they do with us, but they fuck with you in another way, you're just an animal to them.

  Rizzo : I don't give a fuck

  Young Michael : Yeah you do, and beating them on Saturday won't make a difference.

  Rizzo : Then why, white boy, why?

  Young Michael : To make them feel what we feel, just for a couple of hours.

• Rizzo : [about why he won't play football]  Guards steer clear of me all right, they stay back and let me do my time. If I play in that game and put a hurting on one of them, that just might change my cushion.
