"She'll tell Chino Tony's in the cellar!" "Don't you touch me." "I got a message for your American buddy." "You tell that murderer... that Maria's never going to meet him." "You tell him that Chino found out about them... and shot her!" "She's dead." "When do you kids stop?" "You make this world lousy." "We didn't make it, Doc." "Get outta here." "Doc, I thought I heard-- You got it!" "Yeah, I got it." "You're a pal." "You're the best friend a guy ever had." "I'll pay you back as soon as I can, I promise." " Forget that." " Never. I couldn't." "Doc, you know what we're gonna do in the country, Maria and me?" "We're gonna have lots of kids, and we're gonna name 'em after ya." "That way, when you come to visit us" "Wake up!" "is this the only way to get through to you?" "Do just what you all do?" "Bust like a hot water pipe?" "What's got into you?" "Why do you kids live like there's a war on?" "Why do you kill?" "I told you how it happened." "Maria understands." "I thought you did too." "Maria understands nothing... ever again." "There is no Maria, Tony." "What?" " l can't." " No, Doc!" "Now tell me!" "What is it?" "That was Anita upstairs." "Chino found out about you and Maria... and he killed her." "Maria died?" "Come and get me too, Chino!" "Come and get me too, Chino!" " Who's that?" " lt's Anybodys." "Come on." "Get out of here!" " Come and get me, damn you!" " What are ya doin'?" " Get out of here!" " Why don't you come with me-- lt ain't playin' anymore!" "Can't any of you get that?" " But the gang!" " You're a girl!" "Be a girl and beat it!" "Come on, Chino!" "Get me too!" "Chino!" "I'm callin' for ya!" "There's nobody here but me." "Come on!"

" We will." " Yes." "Hold my hand and we're halfway there" "Hold my hand and I'll take you there" "Somehow" "Someday" "Some" "Stay back!" "How do you fire this gun, Chino?" "Just by pulling this little trigger?" "How many bullets are left, Chino?" "Enough for you?" "And you?" "All of you!" "You all killed him." "And my brother." "And Riff." "Not with bullets and guns." "With hate!" "Well, I can kill too, because now I have hate!" "How many can I kill, Chino?" "How many, and still have one bullet left for me?" "Don't you touch him!"
