"His first objective was to record some of the race music... that had come up from the Delta, but was being recorded up north." "Sam thought - and I quote - "Well, why should they have to go up north to record it when I can record it right here?"" "Well, it was right here in this very room where Mr. Phillips recorded the likes of Howlin' Wolf, Rufus Thomas..." "Charlie Feathers, the Prisonaires, James Cotton, Johnny Cash..."

"And right in front of Graceland - And I stopped... and, sure enough to God, it was him." "And he was young too." "He was young and beautiful-lookin' like in 1956." "And then he just..." "turned to me, and he said..." ""Excuse me, sir, but in a year from now... you're gonna do me a favor." "And I said, "Of course, sir, I'll do you a favor. "" "And-And I - "Just tell me what it is. " And he said " "With a smile in his eye, and he-he reached inside of his coat." "And he said, "When you meet that girl from Rome..." "I want you to give this to her. "" "I swear to God this is true." "And then he just disappeared." "He was gone." "It was Elvis." "It was the King." "And then I" " I was sittin' over there, and I saw your back."

"You mean Elvis Presley, the dead singer... said to you to give this comb to me?" " I-I did forget one thing." " What?" "Well, he also said that you should give me a $20 delivery fee."

"Would you like to share the room with me?" " Uh, you wanna share the room with me?" " Man, fuck you!" "Okay, 'cause I don't like to be alone either... and, you know, like, then I'll have someone to talk to." "Yeah, that would be really neat." "You see?" "It worked out after all." "And I don't have to give her no discount." "That will be $22 in advance, please." "Oh, uh, we'll even up the bill in the room." "Okay?" "Thank you very much." "By the way, are you all right?"

"So, you know the guy with the red suit, right?" "The guy downstairs, right?" "He said I couldn't stay here because I only had enough money for half a room... and I'd have to find a roommate and everything." "Then he, like, starts this big argument with me, you know?" "Then, like, all of the sudden, I, like, bang right into you." "It's so funny when things happen like that." "I mean, I can't believe it." "It's, like, so strange." "I don't know." "I'm really gonna miss Memphis though." "I really like it here." "I had a pretty good time here and everything." "And, like, my brother lives here too." "See, we moved from New Jersey." "He opened this barber shop, and it's really nice and everything." "He's, like, really great." "I'm really gonna miss him." "But I feel so bad and everything 'cause I didn't even call him and tell him I'm leaving." "It's, like, what am I, fuckin' stupid?" "You don't call your brother and say good-bye?" "Like, now he's gonna find out from Johnny if I don't reach him first... but everything was so emotional and fucked-up with me and Johnny." "I don't know." "I feel so bad and everything." "But who is Johnny?" "Johnny?" "Oh, he's my boyfriend." "Well, he was my boyfriend until today." "Well, until this morning." "See, that's why I'm leaving Memphis." "I just can't be with him anymore, you know." "I just gotta get away from him, you know." "I just have to leave here before he winds up doing something really crazy or something." "I don't know." "I'm gonna miss him." "I guess I still really love him." "Did you ever think to marry him?" "Marry him?" "Well, I don't know." "He, like, wants to marry me, but there's, like, just no way." "I'm just not ready yet anyway... and I wouldn't marry him 'cause he's so damn stubborn." "And he gets real quiet and everything." "I never know what he's thinking." "Then he gets really paranoid." "I don't know." "I just can't take it." "He works in this cotton warehouse, and he hangs out with these black guys... and they call him Elvis." "Wait." "Like Elvis Presley, the singer?" "Yeah, right, but not that he looks like him or anything, or that he even likes him even." "But he's got, like, this dark hair, right, like in a D.A., you know, like that, like Elvis." "And I don't know, I think it's really funny." "But he really hates it when they call him that." "He's really cute." "He's from England." "Well, you know where that is, right?" " Oh, yes, during Carnival " " He's got the cutest accent." "You know the way they talk over there?" "I just love the way they talk." "I love the way he talks when he does talk." "I mean, he never says anything." "How am I supposed to know what he's thinking if he never fuckin' says anything?" "Maybe I talk a lot or something... but, you know, at least it's better than not talking at all." "I don't know." "I don't know why I attract these guys." "Maybe that's my problem." "I should look for another type of boyfriend that talks more than I do." "Well, I guess that's kind of impossible." "It's, like, what am I, fuckin' stupid?" "I'm still in love with him anyway." "Sometimes even the greatest love can last only one week." "Yeah." "Where are you planning to go now?" "Well, I got this girlfriend, you know." "She lives in Natchez." " Natchez?" " Yeah, that's in Mississippi." "She's got this baby and everything, and I haven't met the baby yet." "Well, I haven't met the husband yet either." "Well, anyway, I guess the baby must be at least two now." "And she said I could come and stay with her for a while, 'cause I could probably get a job." "'Cause she works in this beauty salon, so that'll be really good, you know." "This way I could, like, save a little money and, like, get on my own two feet... like, decide what I'm gonna do with my life." "So that'll be really good, you know."
