Brick: I don't know. I'm a little concerned about safety here.
Axl: Were the astronauts concerned about safety when they flew to the Moon?
Brick: Presumably, yes.

Mike: We don't have to stick to just sports. It works with any rivals. You could do dogs and cats, Republicans and Democrats.
Rusty: Pope and Anti-Pope.
Mike: I'm not sure the Pope has a natural enemy.
Rusty: How about a bobcat?
Mike: Hmm. I don't think so.
Rusty: If you have a bobcat, you know he's going after a pope if he has the chance. And vicey-versey. [Mike gives Rusty an exasperated shrug] Should we press pause on the diapers and really focus on this Pope v. Bobcat stuff?
Mike: Let's get this going and then maybe look at that farther down the line.
Rusty: Yeah. The thing is, this Pope/bobcat thing is itching at my brain. And in my experience, that means bub's a winner.
Mike: I'm not angry, but I-I need you to not say "bobcat" again.

Brick: I don't get why you're going to all this trouble for a motorcycle.
Axl: This is not just about the motorcycle. This is about us having the right to do all the things Mom and Dad don't let us do. I am paving the way for future freedoms. I did not sit through the first five minutes of Selma when I meant to see Horrible Bosses 2 for nothing. Would Oprah have signed on to play Selma if it wasn't a character she thought spoke for something she believed in? If I can't take a shot to the junk for something I believe in, why am I even here?
