"I got the same problems." "I gotta get organized." "Little things, like my apartment, my possessions." "I should get a sign: "One of these days, I'll get organiz-ized."" "You mean "organized"?"

"What bugs you the most about this country?" "Well, I don't know. I don't follow political issues that closely, sir." "Well, there must be something." "Well, whatever it is, he should clean up this city here because it's like an open sewer." "It's full of filth and scum." "Sometimes I can hardly take it." "whatever becomes the President should just really clean it up." "You know?" "Sometimes I go out and I smell it." "I get headaches, it's so bad." "And they just never go away, you know?"

"I would have, except my record player doesn't work now." "Your stereo's broken?" "How do you stand it?" "I can't live without music." "I don't follow music too much, but I would really like to." "Then you haVen't played this record yet." "But I was thinking maybe we could listen to it on your record player." "Now, going back through 40 years of Chick Webb." "You gotta be kidding." "What?"

"Well, one more thing I'd like to ask you." "How do you feel your campaign is going?" "When we came up with our slogan "We are the people"  when I said "Let the people rule" I felt I was being overly optimistic." "I must tell you that I am more optimistic now than ever before." "The people are rising to the demands that I have made on them." "The people are beginning to rule." "I feel it is a groundswell." "I know  it will continue through the primary and in Miami." "And I know it will rise  to an unprecedented swell in November." "That bitch!" "I'll blow her brains out!" "I'll kill her, goddamn it!" "I'm gonna get my hands and kill her!" "Shoot, goddamn it!"

"Stop a car at 1 00 yards, put a round right through the engine." "Here you go." "It's a premium, high resale weapon." "Look at that." "That's a beauty." "I could sell this gun to some jungle bunny in Harlem for $500." "But I just deal high-quality goods to the right people." "How about that?" "This might be too big for practical purposes." "In which case, for you, I'd recommend 38 snub-nosed." "Look at this." "That's a beautiful little gun." "It's nickel-plated, snub-nosed, but basically a service revolver." "It'll stop anything that moves." "The Magnum, they use that in Africa for killing elephants." "That .38 that's a funny gun." "Some of these guns are like toys." "That .38, you go out and hammer nails with it all day..." "It's got a really nice action to it and a heck of a wallop." "You interested in an automatic?" "It's a Colt .25 automatic." "It's a nice little gun." "It's a beautiful gun." "Holds six shots in the clip, one in the chamber." "If you're dumb enough to put one there." "Here." "Look at this." ".380 Walther."
