Alex Quote #141
Quote from Alex in Goodnight, Gracie
Alex: "This is a lighter. It belonged to my favorite actor, Paul Newman. One day, he came into the restaurant where I was waitressing and accidentally left it behind. For the first time in my life, I did something I wasn't supposed to and slipped it into my pocket. One of the customers saw and said, 'Don't worry. Your secret's safe with me.' That customer turned out to be the love of my life, your grandfather. So, my Alex, who I love so dearly, who is probably too much like me for her own good, every once in a while, don't be afraid to break the rules. You never know what can happen."

Quote from Gloria
Haley: Gloria, you must be so hot in that.
Gloria: I am in mourning. In Colombia, we take death very seriously.
Alex: Where don't they?
Jay: Can we lose the veil? Nobody's looking for you, Gloria.
Gloria: Who is Gloria?
[aside to camera:]
Gloria: I am a wanted woman in Florida. I used to live there, and when I left, my roommate made our apartment into a house of prostitution, and my name was still on the lease.
Jay: It's like a traffic ticket. You walk into court, pay a fine, it's done. Quick and easy.
Gloria: Yes, that was the name of the whorehouse.
Quote from Jay
Jay: [aside to camera] I'm down there for a funeral. It's such a sad event. And I end up finding something that I thought was lost forever. This beautiful moment that meant so much to both of us, set against the backdrop of fighting commies. There's your movie.
