Matthew quotes from The Man in the Moon (1991)

Matthew

Now, Dani, you and Maureen are gonna be sisters for a long time. Maureen's been good to you all your days. Remember that.

Dani

Don't ask me to forgive her.

Matthew

You got a right to be upset. You got a right to be hurt.

Dani

You don't know what she did.

Matthew

I know enough. But I also know that Maureen's hurting real bad...as much as you...maybe even more. And if you get so involved in your own pain that you can't see when someone else is hurting, you might as well crawl into a hole and pull the dirt right in on top of you 'cause you'll never be any good to yourself...or to anyone else.

Matthew

What time you got?

6:13.

Matthew

You're responsible for my daughter for the next 5 hours and 7 minutes.

Yes sir, Mr. Trant. You don't have a thing to worry about.

Matthew

Then neither will you.

Matthew

She's getting too big to be running around wild as a jack rabbit.

Abigail

It used to be she was too little, and now she's too big. I guess she passed up just right when nobody was lookin'.
