- Chris Cross: How come you don't got somebody? Aren't you lonely?
- Emmett: Yeah, sure. The only thing worse than being lonely with yourself is to be lonely with someone.
- Chris Cross: [opening lines, done in voiceover] I know what I did probably looks like bad news... but I bet you would do the same if you were twelve... and your life was as screwed up as mine. My dad was a bomber pilot in the war. On one of his missions, he hit a hospital filled with kids. It was an accident, but it really freaked him out. That was three years ago, when I was in third grade. Mom used to be for the war like Dad... but that all changed after she saw what it did to him. Dad came back from the war and quit the military. One night, he took me down to the Gulf. We collected driftwood and burned his uniform. Dad said it was nothing but a killer's costume. After that, he moved us from Texas to Key West. In those days, he was drinking a lot. But by spring... he started fasting and took a vow of silence. Then one day, he just disappeared. He wrote Mom and said he wasn't coming back. I wrote him once to ask, "What about me?" He didn't answer.
- Tracy Cross: You think I like taking my clothes off in front of all those people? It makes me sick to my stomach.
- Chris Cross: Then stop!
- Tracy Cross: Honey... sometimes in life you gotta' do things that aren't so good... to get what is good.
- Chris Cross: [lines, done in voiceover] Termina is one grade ahead of me. When we get older, we plan on living together, so we can have orgasms. Termina says, orgasms is something adults get after they fall in love; but Emmett says, orgasms are what make people fall in love.
- Chris Cross: [lines, done in voiceover] These were the good old days, which Mom doesn't like me talking about. If I do, she says, "G.T.F.", which stands for "going too far". This is Mom's ladylike way of telling me to shut the fuck up.
- Monica: If you want a future for yourself and the kid, you're gonna have to bump and grind for it.
- Tracy Cross: You're a tough lady, Monica.
