"It'll be all right as soon as he gets his shot, and then everything'll be OK." "Too many people hate him." " You're drinking with them." " I'm gonna have a good time." "Get your stuff." "You ain 't staying ' here." "You're makin ' an asshole out of my brother." " Joey, relax." " Shut up!" "Mind your fuckin ' business!" " You're takin ' this all wrong." " I said shut up, didn 't I?"

"I can 't figure you out." "What is it with all the quick answers?" ""Yeah, they're all right."" " You wanna get outta here?" " It's not like that." "Just, you know, all the aggravation and everything, and all the fights." "Listen to me." "Now, Jake, the guy's become an embarrassment." "He's embarrassing me with certain people and I'm looking very bad." "I can 't deliver a kid from my own goddamn neighbourhood." "Why does he have to make it so hard on himself?" "He comes to me, I make it easier for him." "The man 's got a head of rock." "It's hard to explain, Tommy." "Jack respects you." "He don 't even say hello to anybody." "You, he talks to, he likes you." "But when he gets something on his mind, he likes to do things his own way." "Jesus Christ could come off the cross, he don 't give a fuck, he wants to make it on his own." "Make it on his own." "He thinks he's gonna walk in there and become champion on his own."

"Bust her fuckin ' hole, throw her out." "Either that or live with her and let her ruin your life, 'cause that's what's happening." "How much could you take?" "How much shit could you take?" "So what did that guy say?" "He gave me the "good news, bad news" routine." "The good news is you're gonna get the shot at the title." "The bad news is they want you to do the old flip-flop for them." " What else is new?" " You didn 't see that coming?" "Ah, you win some, you lose some." "This one we'll lose." "Billy Fox. 173 and three quarter pounds." "Jake La Motta. 167..." "I guess you've heard a lot of the stuff going around, rumours." "A short time ago you were a big favourite."
