  • Marcus: Well, fellas, ain't that somethin'. Winger's stickin' up for the poor white trash, a peckerwood, over one of his own gang.
  • Marcus: One of these days, it's gonna be me and you, you hairy peckerwood. Remember that. You tell that Winger bastard I'll be thinkin' about him too. Be sure and tell him, peckerwood!
  • Kirky: I'll be rememberin', boy. Don't you worry none about that.
  • Judge Cavanaugh: Marcus, this thing you did to Mr. Kiner, brought disgrace to your people and to our town.
  • Marcus: I ain't got no people. this town don't want me and I don't want this town.
  • Judge Cavanaugh: I have just committed you to Spitz Reformatory for six months. I hope, for your sake, that you can rid yourself of this evil in you before you come back. Because if you don't, you're going to rot in jails for the rest of your life.
  • Marcus: I ain't rottin' nowhere but in my grave.
  • Chappie Logan: Now, I want two towels under every pillow, in every room.
  • Marcus: Is this here a whorehouse?
  • Chappie Logan: With talk like that, you won't be around here long, boy. Just change the beds, sweep the floor, and mind your own business.
  • Marcus: I don't want no part of your poor white trash God. He ain't gonna do nothin' for me and he ain't gonna do nothin' for you - as long as you stay black. Why don't you tell crapper to stop beatin' on us nigger boys. Yeah, that's what he calls us: nigga, nigga, nigga! Tell 'em, crapper. Tell 'em what you're gonna do to me when they leave. Tell 'em.
