  • Rubin Flood: Oh, you always got a excuse. But the plain fact is, a lot of time goes by without our making love. Cora, this is a marriage!
  • Cora Flood: There are other things in marriage.
  • Rubin Flood: Yeah, but the part I'm talking about is natural! It's normal and it's necessary! God planned it that way, and ain't nobody come up with anything better since Adam and Eve!
  • Sonny Flood: Mama?
  • Cora Flood: Sonny. Why are you so afraid of the dark?
  • Sonny Flood: I don't know... maybe it's because you can't see what's in front of you. Might be something bad.
  • Cora Flood: There's nothing to be afraid of in the dark.
