Quotations
Faye: I have wasted thousands and thousands of kisses on you - kisses that I thought were special because of your lips and your smile and all your color and life. I used to think that was the real you, when you smiled. But now I know you don't mean any of it. You just save it for all your songs. Shame on me for kissing you with my eyes closed so tight.
Lenny: Are you crazy? A man in a really nice camper wants to put our song on the radio! Gimme a pen; I'm signin', you're signin', we're all signin'!
Faye: Gentleman. I'd forgotten what you fellas looked like.
Lenny: He's got a very pretty girlfriend, doesn't he?

Chrissy: Is it serious, do you know?

Lenny: Very serious. I'm single!

Chrissy: What about the bass player?

Lenny: He's married!
Mr. White: It is very important that you don't stink today.

Lenny Haise: Hey, I make no guarantees.
