One thing about New York City. You are here or you are nowhere. You cannot achieve another level of anxiety, hostility or paranoia anywhere else. ---

What do you want me to do? Get on television and tell three million people they have to be _nice_ to each other? Being miserable and treating other people like dirt is every New Yorker’s God-given right! Your two minutes are up. Good night, gentlemen. ---

Thanks for the compliment, but I know how I look. This is the way I look when I’m sober. It’s enough to make a person drink, wouldn’t you say? You see, the world looks so dirty to me when I’m not drinking. Joe, remember Fisherman’s Wharf? The water when you looked too close? That’s the way the world looks to me when I’m not drinking. ---

Mr. Pink: I don’t tip because society says I have to. All right, if someone deserves a tip, if they really put forth an effort, I’ll give them something a little something extra. But this tipping automatically, it’s for the birds. As far as I’m concerned, they’re just doing their job. Mr. Blue: Hey, our girl was nice. Mr. Pink: She was okay. She wasn’t anything special. Mr. Blue: What’s special? Take you in the back and suck your dick? Nice Guy Eddie: I’d go over twelve percent for that. ---

They can be a great people, Kal-El. They wish to be. They only lack the light to show the way. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-speak-to-me-in-movie-quotes/914614.md?page=374) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/new-speak-to-me-in-movie-quotes/914614.md?page=376)
