Brick
Somethin' hasn't happened yet.
Big Daddy
What's that?
Brick
A click in my head.
Big Daddy
Did you say, 'click'?
Brick
Yes sir, the click in my head that makes me feel peaceful.
Big Daddy
Boy, sometimes you worry me.
Brick
It's like a switch, clickin' off in my head. Turns the hot light off and the cool one on and all of a sudden, there's peace.
Big Daddy
Boy, you're, you're a real alcoholic!
Brick
That is the truth. Yes sir, I am an alcoholic, so if you'd just excuse me...
Brick
Now I'm waitin' for that click and I don't get it. Listen, I'm all alone. I'm talkin' to no one where there's absolute quiet.
Big Daddy
You'll hear plenty of that in the grave soon enough. But right now, we're gonna sit down and talk this over.
Brick
This talk is like all the others. It gets nowhere, nowhere, and it's painful.
