Javier: Look into his eyes. I don't care what the doctor says. I give him six months.

Manny: Hey, Dad!
Javier: There's my boy! [laughs] Whee! Someone has been wearing my custom-made cologne... Javier! For the man who wants to smell a little bit like a woman.

Javier: How could I miss it? Manny, the first member of my family to ever graduate from high school.
Jay: Wait a minute. Don't you have a brother in Colombia who's a doctor?
Javier: Yes.
Gloria: He just does orthopedic surgery, not brain or heart.

Javier: Hey, Jay. Listen, I'm sorry. Did I wake you up?
Jay: No. No, I'm a light sleeper. That's what happens when you get older.
Javier: Oh, you're not old.
Jay: I didn't say I was old.
Javier: I never sleep much anyway. Life is just more interesting after 2:00 a.m. You know, the liquor tastes better, the, uh, women are more beautiful. What is it they say? That the night belongs to the poets and the madmen.
Jay: Which are you?
Javier: Perhaps both.

Manny: Would you bet $2 on that one for me, Jay?
Jay: Sure, but you are throwing your money away.
Javier: You both are. The winner of the race will be number seven, My Hometown.
Jay: Number seven. Well, he's carrying 3 extra pounds, and he hates the distance.
Javier: Those are just words on a page. I look the horse in the eye, and he tells me he is the winner.
Jay: Tells ya?
Javier: Perhaps this will sound crazy.
Jay: No need for the qualifier.
Javier: But I have always been able to see into the soul of a horse. It is a gift, and I do not question it. Just like I always end up on the shortest line at the bank.

Javier: Listen. Listen to me. I am very sorry for what you are going through.
Claire: Thank you. Who is this?
Cameron: Who, indeed?
Javier: I am Javier Delgado, Manny's father and Gloria's former husband and lover. I hope you do not think this is insensitive, but you are a beautiful woman, and you will have no trouble to find a man-
Gloria: Javier! The body is not even cold yet!
Claire: The body is upstairs watching basketball.

Javier: Think of it, tomorrow, I will watch you stride across the stage with a sash, like a rebel's bandolier, telling the world "No absents, no tardies."

Manny: You know, I really think I have something here. Maybe instead of going on that cruise, I should stay home and work on...
Gloria: You are going on that cruise! It's gonna be good for you. It's so important for your father. He planned a whole adventure!
Javier: We'll drink tequila in Honduras. We'll swim with the dolphins in Bali. But when we travel through the Panama Canal, we'll be required to do some light housekeeping. It's part of the deal.

Javier: So, Manny, tomorrow, in honor of you becoming a man, I am taking you to the racetrack to enjoy the sport of kings, hmm?
Manny: That's so cool!
Jay: Actually, Manny and I have plans to play golf tomorrow.
Javier: Golfing? Pfft! That is for old men and for women who like women.

Manny: Who are we going with, Dad?
Javier: Nobody in this race, papito. It was quiet down there in the paddock just now. Too quiet.
