Quotes5

  • Laurie: Turn me loose, Tank! I gotta go put the kids to bed. 'Cause I gotta go meet a guy who can do somethin' for me.
  • Tank: Laurie, stay with me tonight.
  • Laurie: Give me the break I need, huh. Just quit me.
  • Laurie: Tank, you need somebody to hold you together, but it ain't me. I got too many troubles of my own.
  • Laurie: Feed 'em like they was your's. Bring me some money! Bring me some money. You don't like me being on welfare. That lousy check don't buy nothin'! I have to do a whole lot of other things - I don't like.
  • Tank: Laurie, I need somebody to tell me why I did it. I - I don't know why I did it. I was in the police station telling them. But, I don't even know how I got there.
  • Laurie: Rest, baby. Rest, now.
  • Tank: In the whole world, there's nobody to tell me why I did it.
