John Allen Hill Quote #5

Quote from John Allen Hill in Bad Neighbor Sam

Sam: Uh, things have just gotten too far out of hand here. I mean, come on, we're neighbors. We need to, well, we need to learn to live together. We- We need each other.
John: I don't need you.
Sam: Oh, God, you're evil. I can't fight the evil. I- I- I give up, Mr. Hill. You know, the funny thing is, I... When I got my bar back just recently, I thought, "Hey, Sam, you're on top of the world here. Your life's finally turning around. You're in charge of your own destiny." But I was wrong. You have my bathrooms, Mr. Hill. You hold all the cards. You're everything. You're God. I'm nothing. Here's your rent.
John: I'm sorry, Sam, I was wrong. I don't want your money.
Sam: You don't?
John: No, I just want you to make that speech to me in public every month when your rent is due.
Sam: No, no. I was wrong, you're not God. You're- You're some big petty, mean nothing. I'll tell you know I'm gonna give you your rent every month, and every month from here on out, and I'll tell you, every time I do I'm gonna write right down here on the memo part, "You're not God." There. How do you like that?
John: Well, you certainly put me in my place. I'll just, uh, take your money and go.
Sam: Yeah. Good, good.
John: Oh, by the way, when I came in, I noticed they were towing your car again.
Sam: What for? I didn't park in your space.
John: No, but it was in a fire lane. I don't make the rules. I just notify the authorities when they're broken.

Quote from John Allen Hill

John: Well, Mr. Malone, since we're going to be neighbors, I brought a little gift for your tavern.

John: He's cute. Does he come with his own dueling banjo?
