  • Father: He ain't shit. He's nothin' but an old tired-ass white boy tellin' some tired-ass jokes.
  • Jo Jo Dancer: Pop, he knows a lot of stuff. He's been in it 25 years. I mean, he's been to Paris. He knows Count Basie! He named off all the people he knew in show business, man.
  • Father: He wouldn't know shit if he fell in it.
  • Father: Defend that bitch-ass mother of your's? Boy, I'll knock the cowboy shit outta you!
  • Father: This boy ain't shit, and his Mama wasn't shit.
  • Jo Jo Dancer: Why you always gotta talk about mom when you get mad at me? That's not right. I mean, she's not here to defend herself.
  • Father: Sure ain't. Ran away with that nigger from Detroit. Left me with you.
