Drexl Spivey : No thanks? What does that mean? Means you ate before you came down here? All full. Is that it? Naw, I don't think so. I think you're too scared to be eatin'. Now, see we're sittin' down here, ready to negotiate, and you've already given up your shit. I'm still a mystery to you. But I know exactly where your white ass is comin' from. See, if I asked you if you wanted some dinner and you grabbed an egg roll and started to chow down, I'd say to myself, "This motherfucker's carryin' on like he ain't got a care in the world. Who know? Maybe he don't. Maybe this fool's such a bad motherfucker, he don't got to worry about nothin', he just sit down, eat my Chinese, watch my TV." See? You ain't even sat down yet. On that TV there, since you been in the room, is a woman with her breasteses hangin' out, and you ain't even bothered to look. You just been clockin' me. Now, I know I'm pretty, but I ain't as pretty as a couple of titties.
Clarence Worley : I'm not eatin' 'cause I'm not hungry. I'm not sittin' 'cause I'm not stayin'. I'm not lookin' at the movie 'cause I saw it seven years ago. It's "The Mack" with Max Julien, Carol Speed, and Richard Pryor. I'm not scared of you. I just don't like you. In that envelope is some payoff money. Alabama's moving on to some greener pastures. We're not negotiatin'. I don't like to barter. I don't like to dicker. I never have fun in Tijuana. That price is non-negotiable. What's in that envelope is for my peace of mind. My peace of mind is worth that much. Not one penny more, not one penny more.

Clarence Worley : [to Alabama, who's apprehensive about his gun] If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it.

Clarence Worley : You just said you love me, now if I say I love you and just throw caution to the wind and let the chips fall where they may and you're lying to me I'm gonna fuckin' die.

Clarence Worley : Eliot, do I look like a beautiful blonde with big tits and an ass that tastes like French vanilla ice cream?

Elliot : No.
Clarence Worley : No. Okay, then why are you telling me all this bullshit, huh? You wanna fuck me?

Clarence Worley : I can't tell you... that was one of the best times I ever had. It was. But, you know, I knew something must be rotten in Denmark. There was no way you could like me that much. Man, I can't tell you how relieved I was when you took off your dress, you... you didn't have a dick.
Alabama : Stop being so fucking calm about all this.
-
Clarence Worley : [Peeling out in reverse into oncoming traffic] We now return to Bullit already in progress.

[having just gotten married]
Clarence Worley : Well, hello, Mrs. Worley.
Alabama : How do you do, Mr. Worley?
Clarence Worley : Top o' the mornin', Mrs. Worley.
Alabama : Bottom of the ninth, Mr. Worley. By the way, have you seen your lovely little wife today?
Clarence Worley : Are you speaking of my beautiful, charming, sexy wife, Mrs. Alabama Worley?

Mentor : Well, can you live with it?
Clarence Worley : What?
Mentor : I said, can you live with it?
Clarence Worley : Live with what?
Mentor : That son of a bitch walkin' around, breathing the same air as you, gettin' away with it every day. Are you haunted?
Clarence Worley : Yeah.
Mentor : You wanna get unhaunted?
Clarence Worley : Oh, yeah.
Mentor : Well, I'd kill him, shoot him in the face, put him down like a dog.
Clarence Worley : I can't believe what you're tellin' me.
Mentor : I'm just sayin' what I'd do.
Clarence Worley : You'd do that?
Mentor : Fuck don't deserve to live.
Clarence Worley : [Exhales] Look, he's hauntin' me, you know? I mean, I do wanna kill him, but I don't wanna spend the rest of my life in jail.
Mentor : Hey, man, I don't blame you.
Clarence Worley : If I thought I'd get away with it...
Mentor : Get away with it? Killing's the hard part. Gettin' away with it, that's easy. You think a cop gives a fuck about a pimp? Listen. Every pimp in the world gets shot. Two in the back of the fuckin' head. Cops'd throw a party, man. Long as you're not at the scene of the crime, smokin' gun in your hand, you'd get away with it. Clarence, I like you. I always have. Always will.

[first lines]
Clarence Worley : In "Jailhouse Rock" he was everything rockabilly's about. I mean, he is rockabilly. Mean, surly, nasty, rude. In that movie he couldn't give a fuck about nothing except rockin' and rollin', living fast, dying young and leaving a good-looking corpse.
