Nancy[Pointing]No! Look, that's the Rollerama. Sid, I won a roller skating trophy there when I was six years old.
MalcolmBut Sidney's more than a mere bass player. He's a fabulous disaster. He's a symbol, a metaphor, he embodies the dementia of a nihilistic generation. He's a fuckin' star.

Sid[in a taxi on the way to the airport]I wish we wasn't breaking up.
PhoebeWell it's a bit late for that isn't it? Paul and Steve are flying to Rio, Malcom's in London, John's in New York.
NancyLike, I was at CBGB's at this audition, right? So this guy says, "Can you sing like Debbie Harry?" It's a bad deal looking like an established star, let me tell you that. I mean, I like Debbie. We're really good friends, actually.

GranpaSo, are you gonna make an honest woman out of our Nancy, Sid?
SidWell, she's always been honest to me. Granpa, sir. She's never lied to me.
GranpaBut, um, what are your, uh, intentions?
SidWell, first off, we're gonna go down to the methadone clinic on Monday and then Nancy's gonna get me some gigs. And then we're gonna go off and, like, live in Paris and just sort of go out in a blaze of glory. Yeah, but don't worry. You'll be proud of us.
PhoebeI know what you're feeling. I know how important your relationship is. But if you two wanna stay together, we'll just have to find another bass player.
SidI don't want fuckin' tickets for fuckin' Bruce Springsteen! Fuck off and get me some smack!

Methadone CaseworkerYou guys got no right to be strung out on that stuff. You could be selling healthy anarchy. But long as you're addicts, you'll be full of shit.
Methadone CaseworkerYeah, while us guys was fightin' and dyin' and gettin' all fucked up, the CIA was flyin' the shit out of there and into here with our planes. You know who paid for that shit? We did. That is, the government. You know why? 'Cause smack is the great controller. Keeps the people stupid when they could be smart.
Bowery Snax, drug dealerIt's none of my business, man, but I don't know why you hang with this chick. Fuckin' junk hog, let's face it. On top of that, she's always gettin' down on you, bitchin' at you, complainin'. Shit, man.
Hotelier - U.S.A.You know the type. She's a camp follower. She was a camp follower. She would go to bed with anyone, as long as they were part of a group.
