Quote from Sue in True Grit

Jeremy: Hey, where you been? I've been texting you all morning. Did you forget to set the alarm to get up and save our dying planet?
Sue: Nah, I got your texts. Just got, uh, other things to do. You know, been busy, doesn't matter. Whatevs.
Jeremy: Okay. Well, at least you're here now. Why don't you hand out these pamphlets.
Sue: I... [scoffs]
Jeremy: [over bullhorn] The sea ice in the Arctic Circle is melting! Sign our petition to protect the polar bears!
Sue: [over another bullhorn] I don't know. Polar bears are kind of overrated. Do they really need our help? I went to a zoo once, and they seemed fine.
Jeremy: The polar bears are dying because of man's endless thirst for oil.
Sue: Yeah, but if you're on a long road trip and you need a place to go inside and pee, where are you gonna go if you don't have a gas station? So thank you, oil. [bullhorn screeches]
Jeremy: Big corporations are pillaging Mother Earth.
Sue: But don't big corporations always have our best interests at heart?
Jeremy: No, they don't. They support child labor.
Sue: Keeps the kids off their phones, am I right?

Quote from Brick

Brick: I hope you told your mom not to wait for you for dinner. Font Club may run a little late tonight. We're having a raising Helvetica party.
Troy: I thought we were gonna discuss Garamond.
Brick: I'm saving that for Monday. Gara-Monday?
Troy: Ah, cool.

Quote from Brick

Brick: Anyway, at first, I was looking forward to going, but now I'm worried. What am I gonna say to a bunch of jocks? Can you give me some football terms to use so I don't embarrass myself trying to fit into the conversational bouquet?
Mike: Uh, first of all, I'd steer clear of "bouquet." Second, just talk about anything. Just be yourself.
Brick: Should I talk about Charlie Rose?
Mike: No. Why would you do that?
Brick: Well, I like his interviewing style. The way he takes one topic and really delves into it.
Mike: Um, just talk, like, uh, "Hey, what class are you in? Where'd you get those sneakers?"
Brick: You're giving me tall-guy advice. That all works coming from you. If I did it, I'm just the weirdo paying too much attention to people's shoes.

Quote from Brick

Brick: [whistles]
Mike: Uh, Brick, what's with the getup?
Brick: Oh, this? I've noticed high-school kids seem to be very into school pride. As you know, I live life on the periphery, on the fringes of fun. But I've decided, if I want to graduate having lived the high school experience, it will require total immersion.
Frankie: But you don't even like sports.
Brick: Correction... used to not like sports. Now all I care about is we beat the Bentonville Bears Friday night. The Bears are going down! I hate them based on their geographical location.
Mike: Good man.
Brick: In addition to sports cheering, I will also decorate my locker and perhaps participate in a school prank. One thing's for sure... count on a lot of selfies. You can follow my antics on social media. I've got this year down... like the Bears, who are going down. [chuckles]
