Tommy Quote #23

Quote from Tommy in Lonely Dick

August: Listen, I ran out because I was disappointed in you. I thought you were different than other guys.
Tommy: Oh, I am different. You have no idea how different I am.
August: Well, you're not totally to blame, because I know I send some really mature signals.
Tommy: Okay, I can deal with that. I can forget the physical stuff and just be completely intellectual all the time.
August: Well, I hope not all the time.
Tommy: [sighs] Thank god, 'cause, frankly, I couldn't have done that.
August: Look, it's not that complicated. Sometimes you go with the intellectual, sometimes you go with the physical, and sometimes just closeness is nice.
Tommy: Well, how will I know when to do what?
August: I'll decide that as we go along.

Quote from Nina

Nina: And if you think that I won't cause a scene just because we're in a fancy restaurant, you had better think again because I'm going to tell you exactly what I think of your sorry ass and the loser school that owns it because I, Nina Campbell, am quitting! [sobs] I work damn hard for you!
Dick: Nina, sit down. I'm not firing you.
Nina: You're not?
Dick: No.
Nina: Oh. Okay. [clears throat] [clicks fingers to the waiter] Um, I'd like to change my order. Bring me the rack of lamb and a beefeater martini, straight up with an olive.
Dick: But about Dr. Albright's number-
Nina: Don't press your luck.

Quote from Harry

Dick: Sally, you know, fragrance is an integral part of the human experience. The smell of flowers in the springtime, the aroma of fresh baked apple pie.
Harry: A beautiful sunset with pink and orange streaking the sky.
Tommy: Harry, that's a sight, not a smell.
Harry: Oh. Well, I knew it was one of those face hole things.
