Quotes11

  • Jim Williams: Yes, I am "nouveau riche," but then, it's the "riche" that counts, now isn't it?
  • Jim Williams: Sport, truth, like art, is in the eye of the beholder. You believe what you choose and I'll believe what I know.
  • Jim Williams: Livin' here pisses off all the right people.
  • Jim Williams: This is the dagger that Prince Yussopov used to murder Rasputin. He sliced off his cock and balls with it. True story, and deliciously evil, don't you think?
  • Jim Williams: Which conversation shall we join?
  • John Kelso: The one least likely to involve gunfire.
  • Jim Williams: He needed what I gave him and I needed what he gave me.
  • Jim Williams: Well, that's a very genteel way of asking if I come from old money.
  • John Kelso: Do you?
  • Jim Williams: No. I was born in Gordon, Georgia, a little town outside of Macon. My father was a barber, sometimes house builder. My mother was a secretary. What money I have is about eleven years old.
  • John Kelso: So, tell me, Jim, has your family always collected?
  • Jim Williams: Well, that's a very genteel way of asking if I come from old money.
  • John Kelso: Do you?
  • Jim Williams: No. I was born in Gordon Georgia, a little town outside of Macon. My father was a barber, sometime house builder, my mother was a secretary. What money I have is about eleven years old. So, yes I am "nouveau riche," but then it's the "riche" that counts, now isn't it? There's only two things that interest me, work, and those trappings of aristocracy that I find worthwhile, the very things they're forced to sell when the money runs out, and it always runs out. And then all they're left with is their lovely manners!
  • Lucille Wright: Oh, you're gonna have fun tonight.
  • Jim Williams: Indeed he is, Lucille.
  • Jim Williams: I'm innocent, John. It's important that you believe that. Do you believe that?
  • John Kelso: Yes, I do. I'm having trouble getting anyone to talk to me out here, Jim.
  • Jim Williams: Welcome to Mercer house, Mr. Kelso.
