Judge Flatt Ollie, you know my feelings about arming morons: you arm one, you've got to arm them all, otherwise it wouldn't be good sport.

Page 1 of 3 Judge Flatt Mr. Sullivan, you're wearing a necktie. Are you in trouble with the law again?
Sixty years old and still getting crushes on other men's wives. I would hope by the time I'm your age, I'm a little smarter than that.
Can't hurt to hope. You sure are off to a slow start.
Charlotte How can you live in a town this size and not see your ex-wife all the time?
That's easy, dolly. Peter's mom and I don't exactly travel in the same circles. As a matter of fact, Vera pretty much travels in a straight line.
SOMEBODY in this family had to.
Do you still bet on that horse race of yours?
What, the trifecta?
Yes. Has it ever come in?
Not yet.
But you still bet on it.
Well, sure. I mean, the odds have gotta kick in sooner or later.
Fine. That's exactly the way I feel about you.
Doesn't it bother you that you haven't done more with the life God gave you?
Not often. Now and then.
Dogs don't eat buns.
You're buying ground beef for your dog?

Mom's greatest fear is that your life was fun.
Tell her not to worry.
Oh, God. I don't believe this. I'm a member of Greenpeace and I just helped poison a dog.
Well for one thing, it ain't poison. For another, you didn't help much.
So if you're not a father to me, how come you're a grandfather to Will?
'Cause you gotta start someplace.
[about Miss Beryl's paying Sully's back taxes on his family house]
There's a rumor going around that you did a good deed. You stuck your nose where it didn't belong.
I know it. I'm an old woman, though. I'm entitled.
Well, you're forgiven.
Knocked up like a cheerleader. Eh, I suppose now you're gonna to want to be godfather.
Hey... I can't be the father and the godfather. You got to goddamn do something.
A condemned man has a right to a last request doesn't he? I got my truck out back whaddya say we get in the back get naked and see where it goes from there?
Birdy Ok
Haven't you got any pride?
Birdy Go to jail, Sully, it's where you belong.
