Roland Quote #95

Quote from Roland in Rooms by the Hour

Roland: Hey, Johnny. Wow. This place is hopping.
Johnny: Yeah, well, it's uh, it's been a busy week.
Roland: Uh huh. You know, I gotta tell you, when I first heard that Stevie was hitching her wagon to your cart, the first thing that came into my mind was, "Whoa, Nelly! That horse is in big trouble."
Johnny: A convoluted metaphor, but, um...
Roland: But I've gotta say, you've proven me wrong, I mean, obviously, you're doing something right here.
Johnny: Yeah, well, once again, thanks for coming by, Roland.
Roland: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Johnny, look. I know it makes you uncomfortable when somebody gets real with you, but could we just have one minute when I compliment you, and you don't go all, "Ooh Roland, my generation, we don't talk about our feelings, we keep 'em all [growls] inside!"

Quote from Moira

Moira: Rarely is the material of quality, the challenge is to lift it off the page. And I think part of the problem, David, is that I'm getting nothing from you. It's like working off a corpse.
David: I actually think you do play off a corpse in the next scene, and if I'm being perfectly honest, this is all playing a bit big.
Moira: Hmph! Big.
David: Yeah.
Moira: And would that be a note? A note, coming from my son?! Who I carried for almost a full seven months, to an actress who has been short-listed for more than seven major made for television motion pictures? The script is nothing more than a jumping off point.

Quote from Moira

Moira: Look what you've done! Look at it! Lying there, lifeless. Yet, in its eyes, I see darkness.
David: It's just a crow, Mrs. Mandrake.
Moira: Dr. Mandrake. And you must be kidding yourself if you think more are not coming. They always do. They're watching you, Gareth. The crows have eyes. And you better not look them in it.
David: Uh, it-it's just a flock of crows, Dr. Mandrake. What's the worst that can happen?
David: Oh, you'll see!
Moira: And it's not a flock, my dear boy. It's a murder. Yes, I said murder.
