- Cole Sear: [angrily] I don't like it when people look at me like that!
- Stanley Cunningham: Like what?
- Cole Sear: Stop it!
- Stanley Cunningham: I don't know how else to look, I...
- Cole Sear: You're a stuttering Stanley!
- Stanley Cunningham: Excuse me?
- Cole Sear: You talked funny when you went to school. You talked funny all the way to high school.
- Stanley Cunningham: What...
- Cole Sear: You shouldn't look at people, it makes them feel bad!
- Stanley Cunningham: How did you...
- Cole Sear: [screams] Stop looking at me!
- Stanley Cunningham: [stutters] Who have you b-b-been speaking to?

- Stanley Cunningham: S-s-stop it!
- Stanley Cunningham: Philadelphia is one of the oldest cities in this country. A lot of generations have lived here and died here. Almost any place you go in this city has a history and a story behind it. Even this school and the grounds it sits on. Can anyone guess what this building was used for a hundred years ago, before you went to this school, before I went to this school? Yes, Cole?
- Cole Sear: They used to hang people here.
- Stanley Cunningham: No, uh, that, mm-mm, that's not correct. Uh, where'd you hear that?
- Cole Sear: They'd pull the people in, crying and kissing their families 'bye. People watching would spit at them.
- Stanley Cunningham: Uh, Cole, this, this building was a legal courthouse. Laws were passed here. Some of the very first laws of this country. This whole building was full of, uh, lawyers, uh, lawmakers.
- Cole Sear: They were the ones that hanged everybody.
- Stanley Cunningham: I don't know which one of these guys told you that, but they were just trying to scare you, I think.
- Cole Sear: I don't like people looking at me like that.
- Stanley Cunningham: Like what?
- Cole Sear: Stop it!
