Glenn Gould

Glenn Herbert Gould (25 September 1932 – 4 October 1982) was a Canadian pianist, noted especially for his recordings of the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. He gave up concert performances in 1964, dedicating himself to the recording studio for the rest of his career, and performances for television and radio.

Quotes

 * The mental imagery involved with pianistic tactilia is not related to the striking of individual keys but rather to the rites of passage between notes.
 * review of Payzant, Glenn Gould Reader p445

For the sake of showing off.
 * Never be clever for the sake of being clever
 * "So You Want To Write A Fugue", work's text

 * The prerequisite of contrapuntal art, more conspicuous in the work of Bach than in that of any other composer, is an ability to conceive a priori of melodic identities which when transposed, inverted, made retrograde, or transformed rhythmically will yet exhibit, in conjunction with the original subject matter, some entirely new but completely harmonious profile.
 * "So You Want To Write A Fugue", Glenn Gould Reader p240

 * The trouble begins when we start to be so impressed by the strategies of our systematized thought that we forget that it does relate to an obverse, that it is hewn from negation, that it is but very small security against the void of negation which surrounds it. And when that happens, when we forget these things, all sorts of mechanical failures begin to disrupt the functions of the human personality. When people who practice an art like music become captives of those positive assumptions of system, when they forget to credit that happening against negation which system is, and when they become disrespectful of the immensity of negation compared to system — then they put themselves out of reach of that replenishment of invention upon which creative ideas depend, because invention is, in fact, a cautious dipping into the negation that lies outside system from a position firmly ensconced in system.
 * Glenn Gould Reader p5

 * I believe that the justification of art is the internal combustion it ignites in the hearts of men and not its shallow, externalized, public manifestations. The purpose of art is not the release of a momentary ejection of adrenalin but is, rather, the gradual, lifelong construction of a state of wonder and serenity.
 * Attributed to Glenn Gould (1962) in Payzant (Glenn Gould: Music and Mind), p. 64

 * I wasn't motivated to do it [re-record Bach's Goldberg Variations] until rather recently, when it occurred to me, on one of my rare relistenings to that early recording, that it was very nice, but that it was perhaps a little bit like thirty very interesting but somewhat independent-minded pieces, going their own way, and all making a comment on the ground bass on which they are all formed and to which they all conform. And I suddenly felt, not having played it in, well, since I stopped playing concerts, about 20 years, having not played it in all that time, that maybe I wasn't savaged by any over-exposure to it, and that if I looked at it again, I could find a way of making some sort of almost arithmetical correspondence between the theme and the subsequent variations, so that there would be some sort of temporal relationship, I don't want to say just exactly 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, that kind of correspondence, but, you know what I mean, there would be a sense in which, substituting for the fact that Bach had absolutely no melodic design that is continuous but rather a base harmonic design that is continuous, there would be at least a rhythmic design that is continuous, and the sense of pulse that went through it. And that seemed to me sufficient justification [...] to do it all over again.
 * transcribed from The Glenn Gould Collection vol. 13 (Sony laserdisc).

 * I think that if I were required to spend the rest of my life on a desert island, and to listen to or play the music of any one composer during all that time, that composer would almost certainly be Bach. I really can't think of any other music which is so all-encompassing, which moves me so deeply and so consistently, and which, to use a rather imprecise word, is valuable beyond all of its skill and brilliance for something more meaningful than that -- its humanity.
 * Gramophone

 * I tend to follow a very nocturnal sort of existence mainly because I don't much care for sunlight. Bright colors of any kind depress me, in fact. And my moods are more or less inversely related to the clarity of the sky, on any given day. A matter of fact, my private motto has always been that behind every silver lining there is a cloud.
 * transcribed from The Life and Times of Glenn Gould

 * And I think that this is something that we must all do in this day and age: I think if one is going to pursue performance at a time when the greatest performances of the past and of the present have been made permanent in the record catalogues where anyone can hear [them], one must indeed recompose it or find another way to make a living. I don't think there is an excuse for a performance that simply duplicates what's been done before.
 * Interviewed by Humphrey Burton in 1966

Quotes about Gould

 * Don't be frightened, Mr. Gould is here. (audience laughter) He will appear in a moment. I am not — as you know — in the habit of speaking on any concert except the Thursday night previews, but a curious situation has arisen, which merits, I think, a word or two. You are about to hear a rather, shall we say, unorthodox performance of the Brahms D Minor Concerto, a performance distinctly different from any I've ever heard, or even dreamt of for that matter, in its remarkably broad tempi and its frequent departures from Brahms' dynamic indications. I cannot say I am in total agreement with Mr. Gould's conception. And this raises the interesting question: "What am I doing conducting it?" (mild laughter from the audience) I'm conducting it because Mr. Gould is so valid and serious an artist, that I must take seriously anything he conceives in good faith, and his conception is interesting enough so that I feel you should hear it, too. But the age-old question still remains: "In a concerto, who is the boss (audience laughter) — the soloist or the conductor?" (Audience laughter grows louder) The answer is, of course, sometimes one and sometimes the other depending on the people involved. But almost always, the two manage to get together, by persuasion or charm or even threats (audience laughs) to achieve a unified performance. I have only once before in my life had to submit to a soloist's wholly new and incompatible concept, and that was the last time I accompanied Mr. Gould. (audience laughs loudly) But this time, the discrepancies between our views are so great that I feel I must make this small disclaimer. Then why, to repeat the question, am I conducting it? Why do I not make a minor scandal — get a substitute soloist, or let an assistant conduct? Because I am fascinated, glad to have the chance for a new look at this much-played work; because, what's more, there are moments in Mr. Gould's performance that emerge with astonishing freshness and conviction. Thirdly, because we can all learn something from this extraordinary artist who is a thinking performer; and finally because there is in music what Dimitri Mitropoulos used to call "the sportive element" (mild audience laughter) — that factor of curiosity, adventure, experiment, and I can assure you that it has been an adventure this week (audience laughter) collaborating with Mr. Gould on this Brahms concerto; and it's in this spirit of adventure that we now present it to you.
 * Leonard Bernstein, making some introductory remarks on Gould and the Piano Concerto No. 1 in D minor, Op. 15, by Brahms, at Carnegie Hall, with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra (6 April 1962)

 * Among pianists, Glenn Gould was the ultimate line guy. He didn’t view the piano as a homophonic instrument, but as a veritable counterpoint machine, from which he coaxed Bach fugues and de-orchestrated Strauss tone poems with remarkable clarity: x-ray vision, some might say. When it came to less polyphonically inclined compositions, like early Mozart sonatas, Gould simply spruced up the left hand accompaniments to give the music a more “Baroque” contrapuntal flavor. And if the results sounded more like Brecht than Gould’s beloved Bach, well, that’s another article!
 * Jed Distler, "Lines and Chords and the Musicians Who Love Them" (January 23, 2012)

 * Glenn brought an extraordinary awareness and imagination – he had a very plastic mind - and he was capable of growing, of changing too. Bach offers a very rich field for differentiation of approaches because he was so unspecific about what he did, in terms of performance. But every time one plays a piece, it’s an opportunity not so much to go where the composer didn’t, but to come closer to what one conceives of as being the experience of the composer or the intention of the composer.
 * Leon Fleisher, Interview with pianist Leon Fleisher by Elijah Ho (September 19, 2014)

 * Glenn Gould, 'the greatest interpreter of Bach'. Glenn Gould has found his own approach to Bach and, from this point of view, he deserves his reputation. It seems to me that his principal merit lies on the level of sonority, a sonority that is exactly what suits Bach best. But, in my own view, Bach's music demands more depth and austerity, whereas with Gould everything is just a little too brilliant and superficial. Above all, however, he doesn't play all the repeat, and that's something for which I really can't forgive him. It suggests that he doesn't actually love Bach sufficiently.
 * Sviatoslav Richter, On Bach's Partitas Recordings played by Glenn Gould, in Sviatoslav Richter: Notebooks and Conversations

 * It is as a Bach player that he will live and his recordings constitute his permanent legacy. Sometimes, as in the Partitas, he forced professionals, music lovers and critics to reconsider the music, throwing overboard all preconceived notions. It was not only that he had wonderful fingers and an ability to clarify the linear elements of the music. Other pianists — admittedly, not many — could do that too. But none had his particular kind of firmly centered sonority; a sonority that Piero Rattalino, the Italian specialist on pianists, compares to the sound evoked by the great colorists — Horowitz, Richter and Michelangeli. Above all, Gould's Bach interpretations made the music sound different — different in tempo, in phrase, in dynamics, in conception. Elements nobody previously had paid much attention to suddenly sprang into high relief. But there was nothing eccentric or mannered about the performances. The music was passing through a mind that took nothing for granted. It was an original mind that worked on a different set of premises and principles from other pianists. One could not describe it as traditional Bach playing, or romantic Bach playing, or neoclassic Bach playing, or modern Bach playing, or musicological Bach playing. Whatever it was, it breathed a life and spirit unique in the history of Bach performance.
 * Harold C. Schonberg, The Great Pianists (1987)

The Alchemist

 * A documentary by Bruno Monsaingeon
 * Bruno Monsaingeon: What a strange instrument you have!
 * Glenn Gould: I think that it has a quite good sound!
 * Monsaingeon: I am not talking about the piano, I was rather talking about this... this... this thing that I don’t know exactly how to call it...
 * Gould: That thing! (seeming to be irritated, imitating a German accent) Mister, don’t be so disdainful about a member of the family!
 * Monsaingeon: What do you mean by "member of the family"?
 * Gould: It is a travel companion, without whom I cannot work, without whom I cannot play. I have been using it for 21 years, this... thing! That we could also classify as chair!
 * Monsaingeon: Did you really perform concerts with it?
 * Gould: I’ve never given any concert without it; at least for 21 years.
 * Monsaingeon: Do you mean... that it has been as close to you as Bach?
 * Gould: Oh, very much closer for telling the truth.

Tarkan

Tarkan Tevetoğlu (born October 17, 1972), more commonly known as Tarkan, is a German born Turkish songwriter, singer and performer. He is one of the biggest pop stars in Turkey; and often regarded as the greatest and most popular Turkish singer of the past decade.

Quotes

 * It feels wild, you know, because in the beginning I never thought it was going to really happen. It's all in Turkish, you know, and nobody understands a word. But I think it's a groove. It's the kisses that are universal.
 * About his hit single Şımarık
 * About his hit single Şımarık

 * I was raised in Germany until I was 13, and then my family decided to go back to Turkey. It was good in a way, because I studied music. And I went to a Turkish classical music school and studied music for three years. And then I just realized that I can't do anything else but singing music. And everything just happened naturally.

 * My fans -- when I see them somewhere, outside my concerts -- I get that, that vibe. They're really supporting my projects and everything, because it's a first time that a Turkish singer is, you know, able to express himself out of Turkey.

 * He was my mentor in a way -- as a musician and as a businessman. He came to Turkey once and saw me on stage performing, and then he came up to me and said, "You've got to call me." I said, I would love to. And that was the first thing I did when I came to New York. Then we did an agreement, a deal, with him for the English albums.
 * About Ahmet Ertegün
 * About Ahmet Ertegün

 * It was January and snowing like crazy. It was tough; the food was terrible. Eighteen months of my life for nothing? I thought my own dreams were more important.
 * About his military service
 * About his military service

 * It gets worse and worse. I love it, but I have no life. People grab me and kiss me. I like that, but it can be overwhelming.

 * I don't care what people think. This is my life. I know who I am. I stood up for my rights and my life.

 * Çişim var, ağabey
 * Translation: I gotta pee, man.

 * Dancing and singing were always like games to me. I sang constantly.

 * I had always dreamed of being involved in a job where I could do anything related to animals and nature. A vet maybe. But later I came to understand that it was just a temporary interest and that music was more important to me.

 * Moving to Turkey was the turning point in my life.

 * We need to know ourselves better so that we can realize what we really want in our life. I think that the first condition for a person to be in a successful relationship is to be happy with the person he or she is, in other words to love themselves.

 * I think that my music is very unique and connects both worlds. That's the reason why I named my album Come Closer. I believe in cultural sharing, in the idea of we-belong-altogether. In my opinion, music should have no borders and we should all try to come closer.

Point Break

Point Break is a 1991 action film about an FBI agent who goes undercover to catch a gang of bank robbers who may be surfers.
 * Directed by Kathryn Bigelow. Written by W. Peter Iliff.

100% Pure Adrenaline. (taglines)

Bodhi

 * If you want the ultimate rush, you've got to be willing to pay the ultimate price. It's not tragic to die doing what you love.
 * Feel what the wave is doing. Then accept its energy. Get in sync. Then charge with it.
 * I hate this Johnny. I really do. I hate violence. That is why I had Rosie do this, I could never do that man, I could never hold a knife to Tyler's throat, she was my woman, we shared time. But, Rosie, he's like a machine. He's got this gift of blankness. Once you set him in motion, he will not stop. So, when three o'clock comes, he will gut her like a pig, and try not to get any on his shoes and there is nothing I can do.

Johnny Utah

 * You're sayin' the FBI's gonna pay me to learn to surf?
 * I am an F.B.I. Agent.

Angelo Pappas

 * Utah, get me two!
 * I'm so hungry I could eat the ass end out of a dead rhino, I should have had you get me three of these things!

Dialogue

 * Ben Harp: You know nothing. In fact, you know less than nothing. If you knew that you knew nothing, then that would be something, but you don't. You're a real blue flame special, aren't you, son? Young, dumb and full of cum, I know. What I don't know is how you got assigned out here in Los Angeles with us. Guess we must just have ourselves an asshole shortage, huh?
 * Johnny Utah: [quietly] Not so far.

 * Pappas: Listen, you snot-nosed little shit! I was takin' shrapnel in Khe Sanh when you were crappin' in your hands and rubbin' it on your face!
 * Johnny Utah: You mad?
 * Pappas: Yeah, I'm mad!
 * Johnny Utah: YOU MAD?!
 * Pappas: Yeah, I'm mad! Whatcha gonna do about it?!
 * Johnny Utah: Feels good, doesn't it?

 * Roach: [about surfing] There's nothing as exhilarating, man. Not even sex.
 * Tyler: Maybe you're not doing it right, Roach.

 * Ben Harp: Special agent Utah! This is not some job, flipping burgers at the local drive-in! Yes! - your surf board bothers me! Yes! - your approach to this whole damn case bothers me! And yes! - YOU BOTHER ME! And Pappas! Oh, for the love of Christ. How the hell did I even let you talk me into this whole bone-headed idea to begin with?!
 * Pappas: Harp! We are working under-cover. It takes time. We've produced a few...
 * Ben Harp: NO! No no no no no no NO! Let me tell you what you've produced... Over the last two weeks, you two have produced exactly squat! SQUAT! During which time, the Ex-Presidents have robbed two more banks! Now for Christ's sake, does either one of you have anything even remotely interesting to tell me?
 * [brief pause]
 * Johnny Utah: I caught my first tube today... Sir.

 * Nathanial: You act like nothing happened.
 * Bodhi: Relax Nathanial.
 * Nathanial: [shouting] Don't tell me to relax Bodhi! He's a fuckin' Federal agent!
 * Roach: I should've shot him when I had the chance.
 * Grommet: I say we pack up our shit and leave town tonight.
 * Rosie: You run, you die.
 * Bodhi: Did you know that we've hit thirty banks in three years and they weren't able to touch us, and all this does is raise the stakes of the game.
 * Grommet: [nervously shouting] Fuck the stakes Bodhi! The only one that thinks that this is a game is you man this is real. This is serious shit, and I am scared.
 * Bodhi: What's the matter with you guys? This was never about the money, this was about us against the system. That system that kills the human spirit. We stand for something. We are here to show those guys that are inching their way on the freeways in their metal coffins that the human spirit is still alive. Trust me? [the others nod] Don't worry about this guy, okay? I know exactly what to do with him.

 * Bodhi: [getting ready for their next robbery] 90 seconds Johnny. That's all I ask for, just 90 seconds of your life Johnny, that's it. This is our tactic, is we strike fear. It's basic dog psychology, if you scare them and get them peeing down their leg, they submit. But if you project weakness, that promotes violence, and that's how people get hurt.
 * Roach: Peace, through superior firepower.
 * Bodhi: Fear causes hesitation, and hesitation causes your worst fears to come true. [hands Johnny a shot gun]
 * Johnny Utah: I can't do this.
 * Bodhi: Yes, you can. Who knows, you might like it.
 * Johnny Utah: Bodhi, this is your fucking wake-up call man. I am an F, B, I, Agent!
 * Bodhi: Yeah, I know man. Ain't it wild? That's what makes it so interesting. You can do what you want, and make up your own rules. Why be a servant to the law, when you can be its master?
 * Grommet: Fuckin' A!
 * Nathanial: I love this job.

 * Pappas: [of Johnny, after the last robbery] Don't ride him in with the black and whites like some punk, let me ride him in.
 * Ben Harp: Yeah sure, Angelo, why not? That is why I put you 2 screw-ups to begin with. You deserve each other, don't you? You're just as bad as he is, though you're a little fatter, a little slower and a little more pathetic. For Christ sake, it's like the blind leading the blind with you.
 * Pappas: Harp, I want to tell you something. I was in this bureau when you were still popping zits on your funny face and jerking off with the lingerie section of the Sears catalog.
 * Ben Harp: Is that right, Pappas?
 * Pappas: Yes, that's right "Harp", and out of all these years, I have learned something that you still haven't got.
 * Ben Harp: Yeah? Why don't you astonish me, shitface?
 * Pappas: [punches Harp in the face] Respect for my elders.

 * Johnny Utah: I'm not armed.
 * [lifts up his shirt to Bodhi]
 * Bodhi: But, you're not alone.
 * Johnny Utah: Good guess. There is a gun on you now.
 * [pause]
 * Johnny Utah: Where is Roach?
 * Bodhi: He's around somewhere. Listen Johnny, we're in a kind of a hurry is there anything you need?
 * Johnny Utah: You gotta tell me where she is.
 * Bodhi: Oh yeah, and let my insurance policy expire. Good idea.
 * Johnny Utah: Look Bodhi, people are dead, the ride is over.
 * Bodhi: Oh no no no. I say when it's over.
 * Johnny Utah: The guy you killed was an off duty cop--They'll nail you wherever you land. There's a new thing it's called radar, maybe you've heard of it?
 * Bodhi: What is your...
 * Johnny Utah: Bodhi, I know you man. When they fall on you, you won't back down and they'll have to burn your ass to the ground.
 * Bodhi: Shit happens.
 * Johnny Utah: You got a death wish. You want to ride to glory, fine. But don't take Tyler with you. I'm begging you. Tell me where she is, and I walk away.
 * Bodhi: You walk away?
 * Johnny Utah: I walk away.
 * Bodhi: That's beautiful Johnny.

 * Roach: Hey man, I'm cold. Really cold.
 * Bodhi: Here's your jacket
 * [helps Roach put his jacket on then hugs him to warm him up]
 * Bodhi: Johnny, hand me that bag of money.
 * Johnny Utah: You're cold because all of the blood is running out of your body Roach. You're gonna be dead soon. I hope it was worth it.
 * Bodhi: Don't listen to him, he's just scared. Just think about all of those senoritas and margaritas nursing you back to health. [helps Roach put his parachute pack on him]
 * Roach: What the fuck are you looking at?
 * Johnny Utah: A dead man.

About Point Break

 * It's not about good guys and bad guys. It's a little more complicated when your good guy-your hero-is seduced by the darkness inside him and your 'villain' is no villain whatsoever, he's more of an anti-hero.
 * Kathryn Bigelow in "Hollywood's Macho Woman", by Mark Salisbury, The Guardian, (November 21, 1991); as quoted in Kathryn Bigelow: Interviews by Kathryn Bigelow, edited by Peter Keough, (2013), p. 65.
 * What’s more, the male-on-female perving is staged as a groan-worthy gag. Johnny is all but tripping over his tongue as he spies on Tyler through binoculars while she changes out of her swimsuit. The film’s admiration for Reeves’ and Swayze’s bodies, on the other hand, is subtler – and coded into every shot. Look out, for instance, for the almost indiscernible drop into slow-motion in the sequence where Johnny showers at the beach: it’s one of the stealthiest phwoars in modern cinema. It’s unlikely that a male director would have had the nerve for this – or that two more established male stars, with hard-won hard-man reputations to defend, would have thrown themselves into it with quite so much gusto. In a promotional interview, Swayze described the film as being miles from “slap-ass, macho, jokey crap…I wanted to play it like a love story between two men.” In 80s action movies, the male body is a weapon of war. Point Breakturns it into a source of pleasure. And pleasure is what Point Break’s leads are chasing. Whether surfing, skydiving, playing American football or robbing banks in rubber masks, it’s all in pursuit of what Tyler purringly calls “the ultimate ride”: a thrill so big it recalibrates your worldview.
 * This stuff was so revolutionary that Hollywood took almost a decade to catch up. In some respects, Point Break’s effect on pop culture was immediate: it brought extreme sports into the mainstream and made Reeves the 1990s’ defining action star, just as Bigelow predicted. But it was only ten years later, with the success of The Fast and the Furious – a car-based Point Break remake in all but name – that brotherly love and beautiful men had become ingrained in action-movie culture.
 * Robbie Collin, "Tough guys have feelings too: the power of Point Break", The Telegraph, (2 February 2016).
 * The bodhi tree, according to the Buddhists, is the tree beneath which one finds enlightenment. That is not exactly how it works with Bodhi, the surfing bank robber who is the existential hero of "Point Break," but he is such a persuasive character that a young FBI agent falls under his spell. Or maybe it is Southern California itself that attracts the agent - that land of surf and skydiving and strange karma, so seductive to a square football hero out of Ohio.
 * Bigelow and her crew are also gifted filmmakers. There's a footchase through the streets, yards, alleys and living rooms of Santa Monica; two skydiving sequences with virtuoso photography, powerful chemistry between the good and evil characters, and an ominous, brooding score by Mark Isham that underlines the mood. The plot of "Point Blank," summarized, invites parody (rookie agent goes undercover as surfer to catch bank robbers). The result is surprisingly effective.
 * Roger Ebert, "Point Break", Chicago Sun-Times, (July 12, 1991).
 * This turns out to be one of those beach bum-cosmic high armed robberies with which Southern California F.B.I. agents are no doubt constantly plagued. And Johnny turns out to be the perfect candidate for the job of surfing detective. He looks good in a wet suit. He figures out how to extract information from a nice-looking female surf expert (Lori Petty). Pretty soon he is showing up at the office saying things like "Caught my first tube this morning, sir." He totes his surfboard with him to prove the point.
 * Among the film's especially energetic sequences are a furious two-man chase on foot through a heavily populated neighborhood, shot vigorously with a hand-held camera; sustained and amazing sky-diving scenes guaranteed to make the palms sweat, and a police raid on a house that becomes a wild melee and turns a lawnmower into a potentially deadly weapon. This last episode, and others like it, prove definitively that testosterone-crazed movie violence is by no means the sole province of male directors. Especially fiery and scene-stealing is Gary Busey, as the gruff Nick Nolte-style wild man who is Johnny's F.B.I. partner and foil. Mr. Swayze, more tranquil, is best when showing off his proficiency for glamorous athletics and least good when taking the screenplay seriously. When another character says, of Mr. Swayze's Bodhi, "He's got this gift for blankness," the thought seems all too true.
 * Janet Maslin, "Review/Film; Surf's Up For F.B.I. In Bigelow's 'Point Break'", New York Times, (July 12, 1991).
 * The ocean shimmers behind Point Break’s credits, glowing gold. The words Point and Break cross over, merging and dissolving, and so do the names Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves. Patrick Swayze’s Bodhi is a silhouette surfing in slow motion against a soft-blue sea as luminous as a Romantic painting, a mythic figure out of time. Meanwhile, Keanu Reeves’s Johnny Utah loads a shotgun in a gray downpour. He fires at paper targets, and an FBI agent clicks a stopwatch. With this opening sequence, Kathryn Bigelow tells us that the very different worlds of an FBI agent and a surfer will collide, that these two men are destined to meet and to change each other.
 * Kathryn Bigelow once referred to Point Break as a “wet Western.” If the cowboy prides himself on conquering new frontiers, on taming the wilderness, the surfer prides himself on giving himself to it, to becoming one with it. At Point Break’s end, Johnny Utah finds Bodhi on an Australian beach where the legendary 50-year storm takes place: “twice a century the ocean lets us know just how small we really are.” Johnny has been hunting Bodhi all this time. It’s their final showdown, and they fight as the storm rages on. Johnny handcuffs Bodhi to him as the authorities arrive. But Johnny decides to let him go, honoring Bodhi’s request to ride one last wave. And the ocean seems bluer with Bodhi in it. Johnny looks at his badge, then throws it into the ocean, a move mirroring Clint Eastwood’s Harry Callaghan tossing his badge in Dirty Harry. But Johnny raises a middle finger figuratively to Harry’s brutal machismo, and to rules, control, law and order. Johnny Utah is not quite ready to give himself over to the 50-year storm, but he’s done with the system. He loses his badge, and he gains a soul.
 * Priscilla Page, "POINT BREAK: Kathryn Bigelow’s Subversive Surf Western", Birth. Death. Movies., (Apr. 12, 2017).
 * One of the most numbing things about many movies today is how wildly out of scale they seem to go: the way visual and technical virtuosity is juxtaposed with silly, vacuous stories. "Point Break" (citywide) may be a prime example. It's a movie full of golden, liquid oceanside scenes, aerial ballets, Steadicams flying through packed offices and corridors, massed towering waves crashing down at us—and violent car-crash and gun-battle pyrotechnics splattering all over the screen in bright, violent, bloody shards. It's beautiful, but it's dumb.
 * Michael Wilmington, "MOVIE REVIEW: 'Break': Surf's Up, Credibility Down", Las Angeles Times, (July 12, 1991).

Pier Gerlofs Donia

Pier Gerlofs Donia (c. 1480 – 28 October 1520) was a Frisian warrior, pirate, freedom fighter and folk hero. He is most known by his Frisian nickname "Grutte Pier" (in the old Frisian spelling "Greate Pier"), or by his Dutch aliases of "Grote Pier" and "Lange Pier".

Quotes

 * Bûter, brea en griene tsiis: wa't dat net sizze ken, is gjin oprjochte Frys.
 * Translation: Butter, bread, and green cheese: whoever cannot say that is not a true Frisian.
 * Quoted in: The Linguist: Journal of the Institute of Linguists. Volumes 42-43, The Institute, 2003. p. 192
 * According to legend, Pier forced his captives to repeat this shibboleth to distinguish Frisians from Dutch and Low Germans.

About Pier Gerlofs Donia

 * Pier Gerlofs Donia, a famous Dutch pirate, was renowned for his size and strength. He also commanded a fearsome crew. In 1515, they captured no fewer than 28 Dutch ships, and Pier became known as the Cross of the Dutchman.
 * Paul Harrison (2008) Pirates, p. 16

Nirvikar Dahiya
Saksjn, I feel I must apologize for the vehemence of my "delete" vote I just posted at Votes for deletion/Nirvikar Dahiya. It was not directed at your work on the article, given that you are a new editor here and may not be familiar with some of our basic principles. Please allow me to explain a little:

 * Notability. Subjects must demonstrate that they are notable outside their immediate locale. Evidence for this should be provided by reliable sources, which in Wikimedia means that there must be some published sources with editorial control that show who this person is. Google is not a reliable source, only a rough indicator if someone is not notable (by having a relatively small number of hits, or showing that the hits themselves are not reliable sources). Personal or otherwise obscure websites are also not reliable sources. In this case, the first job here is to show who this person is so we can hope to discover if they are notable.

 * Sourcing quotes. Quotes, too, should have reliable sources. Wikiquote, like its sister project Wikipedia, rises above the mess of user-created websites by developing verifiable information through proper sourcing. Websites with such information must have professional editors taking responsibility for their accuracy. Something like "Philip Humbert's Quotes of the Week" or "Wednesday's Quotes" just isn't acceptable. Even the MotivateUs.com site might not pass a reliability test, and its failure to examine and fully identify sources ensures it isn't useful for Wikiquote purposes.

If the only information we have on "Nirvikar Dahiya" is from quote websites with no sources or editorial review, there is no way to tell whether the subject or quote is just a popular meme or even a hoax. This is why we need reliable information.

I hope this puts the VfD discussion in a proper context. Let me know if you have any questions. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 14:42, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

You wrote:
 * I am wondering why you have made the changes to Tarkan's page - when the pages of other celebrities (see Robbie Williams) has not been changed - and there are "unsourced" quotes there, too. By the way - those "unsourced comments" are sourced - from his IMDb profile and from artquotes - they were published in an Q & A interview on his official site in 2004. Your "intervention" has ruined the style of the site. Please give me a good excuse, before I assume racisim. 82.145.231.12 14:45, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

 * The changes I made to this page were to meet the Templates/People. I'm not quite sure how my changes ruined any style or evoke any racism. Now that you have brought Robbie Williams to my attention, I will make similar changes there. The Tarkan page just happened to be one of the newest pages, and caught my attention. As for the sourced versus unsourced, we need a little more than saying that a given quote is from someone's IMDB profile. If they are from an interview (that as you say is posted on his website), then provide that information and the quotes can be moved to the sourced section (See Citing sources). I don't think any of my changes were unreasonable. ~ UDScott 14:54, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Please follow Templates/People, the formatting way based on consensus and project policies. Do not push your favorite way. You have no good reason to push your preferences to the website which is run by many volunteers based on policies and guidelines. If you would like to organize your quotes in your way, you can find a place on other websites. But here on Wikiquote, if you persistently try to push your way, and not give ears to other editors' advice, you may be blocked from editing.  --Aphaia 19:08, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

 * I've reformatted the page (with the recent additions) to fit the template. You will also notice that I did go and clean up the Robbie Williams page. ~ UDScott 19:14, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Author
The Dream Stowaway written by author C.J. Pumpkins sets the new record for sleep. Growing up as a child we remember such classic tales as Peter Pan, the story of the young boy who never wanted to grow up. A common fantasy found in most children. But now there is a new tale for our time. The Dream Stowaway is the story of a young boy who races from house to house searching for children to take away to his magical world where they can play all night while parents think they are home neatly tucked in their beds. Finally a character that actually wants children to do the same thing us parents woud like them to do, fall asleep. Thank you Mr. Pumpkins!

Pumpkins Puts Children To Sleep!
If you ask any parent what their most difficult time is during the day, their answer would be bedtime.

But after the release of The Dream Stowaway, parents are finding it much easier to put children to sleep. What's their secret???

The Dream Stowaway, what many are calling the first real bedtime story introduces the first fictional character that actually helps children fall asleep.

The book is written in verse perfect for younger children, and each page is filled with colorful illustrations that capture the eye.

Neatly spaced out between 36 pages, the book almost ensures that your child will be sleeping before you can get to the end.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Cglassey. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cglassey~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (film)

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is a 1958 film about an alcoholic ex-football player who drinks his days away and resists the affections of his wife. His reunion with his father, who is dying of cancer, jogs a host of memories and revelations for both father and son.
 * Directed by Richard Brooks. Written by Richard Brooks and James Poe, based on the play by Tennessee Williams.

This is Maggie the Cat... taglines

 * See also Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (the play)

Maggie the Cat

 * Truth! Truth! Everybody keeps hollerin' about the truth. Well, the truth is as dirty as lies.

Big Daddy

 * Mendacity. What do you know about mendacity? I could write a book on it...Mendacity. Look at all the lies that I got to put up with. Pretenses. Hypocrisy. Pretendin' like I care for Big Mama, I haven't been able to stand that woman in forty years. Church! It bores me. But I go. And all those swindlin' lodges and social clubs and money-grabbin' auxiliaries. It's-it's got me on the number one sucker list. Boy, I've lived with mendacity. Now why can't you live with it? You've got to live with it. There's nothin' to live with but mendacity. Is there?

 * But there's one thing you can't buy in a Europe firesale or in any other market on earth. And that's your life. You can't buy back your life when it's finished... The human animal is a beast that eventually has to die. And if he's got money, he buys and he buys and he buys. The reason why he buys everything he can is because his crazy hope is one of the things he buys will be life everlasting — which it never can be.

 * What's that smell in this room? Didn't you notice it, Brick? Didn't you notice a powerful and obnoxious odor of mendacity in this room?... There ain't nothin' more powerful than the odor of mendacity... You can smell it. It smells like death.

Dialogue

 * Maggie: We've got one thing on our side. No, two things. Are my seams straight? Big Daddy dotes on you, honey. He just can't stand Brother Man and his wife...that fertility monster. She's odious to him. I can tell. Just like I can tell he likes me. That's the second thing we've got on our side. He likes me. The way he looks me up and down, and over... He's still got an eye for girls.
 * Brick: That kind of talk is disgusting.
 * Maggie: Anybody ever tell you you were a back-aching Puritan? I think it's mighty fine how that old fellow, on death's doorstep takes in my shape with what I consider deserved appreciation.

 * Maggie: Why are you looking at me like that?
 * Brick: Like what, Maggie?
 * Maggie: Like you were just lookin'.
 * Brick: I wasn't conscious of lookin' at you, Maggie.
 * Maggie: [seductively] I was conscious of it. [He coldly turns from her and rises on his crutches] If you were thinkin' the same thing I was...
 * Brick: No, Maggie.
 * Maggie: Why not?!
 * Brick: Will you please keep your voice down.
 * Maggie: No! I know you better than you think. I've seen that look before. And I know what it used to mean. And it still means the same thing now.
 * Brick: You're not the same woman now, Maggie.
 * Maggie: Oh, don't you think I know that? Don't you think I know that...
 * Brick: Know what, Maggie?
 * Maggie: That I've gone through this horrible transformation, that I've become hard and frantic and cruel...Oh Brick, I get so lonely.
 * Brick: Everybody gets that.
 * Maggie: Living with somebody you love can be lonelier than living entirely alone - if the one you love doesn't love you.
 * Brick: Would you like to live alone, Maggie?
 * Maggie: No! No, I wouldn't.

 * Maggie: Why can't you lose your good looks, Brick? Most drinkin' men lose theirs. Why can't you? I think you've even gotten better-lookin' since you went on the bottle. You were such a wonderful lover... You were so excitin' to be in love with. Mostly, I guess, 'cause you were... If I thought you'd never never make love to me again... why, I'd find me the longest, sharpest knife I could and I'd stick it straight into my heart. I'd do that. Oh, Brick, how long does this have to go on? This punishment? Haven't I served my term? Can't I apply for a pardon?
 * Brick: Lately, that finishin' school voice of yours sounds like you was runnin' upstairs to tell somebody the house is on fire.
 * Maggie: Is it any wonder? You know what I feel like? I feel all the time like a cat on a hot tin roof.
 * Brick: Then jump off the roof, Maggie, jump off it. Now cats jump off roofs and they land uninjured. Do it. Jump.
 * Maggie: Jump where? Into what?
 * Brick: Take a lover.
 * Maggie: I don't deserve that! I can't see any man but you. With my eyes closed, I just see you. Why can't you get ugly, Brick? Why can't you please get fat or ugly or somethin' so I can stand it?
 * Brick: You'll make out fine. Your kind always does.
 * Maggie: Oh, I'm more determined than you think. I'll win all right.
 * Brick: Win what? What is, uh, the victory of a cat on a hot tin roof?
 * Maggie: Just stayin' on it, I guess. As long as she can.

 * Big Daddy: Why did you and Brick suddenly decide to drive up from New Orleans?
 * Maggie: For your birthday, what else?
 * Big Daddy: I had a birthday last year and the year before. I didn't see ya then.
 * Maggie: Well, you know how Brick is sometimes.
 * Big Daddy: Maybe he thought he was comin' to my funeral instead of my birthday?
 * Maggie: Why, Brick loves you! Well he does.
 * Big Daddy: But does he love you?
 * Maggie: What do you want - Truth?
 * Big Daddy: If I was married to you three years, you'd have the livin' proof. You'd have three kids already and the fourth in the oven.

 * Brick: Big Daddy! Now what makes him so big? His big heart? His big belly? Or his big money?
 * Maggie: The heat has made you cross.
 * Brick: Give me my crutch.
 * Maggie: Why don't you put on your nice silk pajamas, honey, and come on down to the party? There's a lovely cool breeze.
 * Brick: Give me my crutch, Maggie.
 * Maggie: Lean on me, baby. [He turns and stiffly ignores her] You've got a nice smell about you. Is your bath water cool?
 * Brick: No.
 * Maggie: I know somethin' that would make you feel cool and fresh. Alcohol rub. Cologne.
 * Brick: No thanks. We'd smell alike. Like a couple of cats in the heat.
 * Maggie: It's cool on the lawn.
 * Brick: I'm not goin' down there, Maggie, not for you and not for Big Daddy.
 * Maggie: At least you can give him his present that I remembered to buy for you for his birthday. Do you think you could write a few words on this card?
 * Brick: You write somethin' Maggie.
 * Maggie: It's got to be your handwritin'. It's your present. It's got to be your handwritin'.
 * Brick: I didn't get him a present.
 * Maggie: Well, what's the difference?!
 * Brick: Then if there's no difference, you write the card.
 * Maggie: And have him know you didn't remember his birthday?
 * Brick: I didn't remember.
 * Maggie: Well, you don't have to prove it to him. Just-just write 'Love, Brick' for heaven's sakes.
 * Brick: NO!
 * Maggie: You've got to.
 * Brick: I don't have to do anything I don't want to! Now you keep forgettin' the conditions on which I agreed to stay on livin' with you.
 * Maggie: I'm not living with you. We occupy the same cage, that's all. You know, that's the first time you've raised your voice in a long time. Crack in the stone wall? I think that's a fine sign. Mighty fine.

 * Big Mama: Oh shoot, Maggie, you just don't like children.
 * Maggie: Why that's not true! I adore them - well brought up.
 * Big Mama: Well why don't you have some then and bring them up well instead of all the time pickin' on Gooper's an' Mae's?
 * Maggie: Big Mama, what you said about havin' children, it's still kind of a secret but...
 * Big Mama: Oh shoot, Maggie, stop playing so dumb. I mean, is he still drinkin' this stuff much?
 * Maggie: Oh, well he may have had a little highball...
 * Big Mama: Don't laugh about it! Some single men stop drinking when they get married. Others start. Brick never touched liquor before he was...
 * Maggie: THAT'S NOT FAIR.
 * Big Mama: Fair or not fair. I want to ask you a question, one question: 'Do ya make Brick happy?' Well?
 * Maggie: Why don't you ask me if he makes me happy?
 * Big Mama: Cause I know that...
 * Maggie: It works both ways.
 * Big Mama: Somethin' ain't right. You're childless and our son drinks... When a marriage goes on the rocks, the rocks are there, right there!
 * Maggie: That's not fair.

 * Maggie: Oh, poor Big Daddy. I'm fond of him. I'm genuinely fond of that old man. I really am, you know. Oh, when he finds out. I wouldn't want to be the one to tell him. That's why you want to go now.
 * Brick: Yeah, that's why I want to leave now. You gotta do this for me, Maggie, please.
 * Maggie: And leave the field to Gooper and that wife of his? No sir. Let's face facts, baby. You're a drinker, and that takes money.
 * Brick: I don't want his money.
 * Maggie: Are you ready to settle for ten cent beer? 'Cause that's just what Gooper will dole out to you when they freeze you out. They got a plan, baby. Oh you should have heard them layin' it on Big Daddy - a mile a minute. Big Mama's already on their side. You're a drinker and I'm childless. We got to beat that plan. We just got to. I-I been so disgustingly poor all my life. That's the truth, Brick.
 * Brick: Have you, Maggie?
 * Maggie: You-you don't know what it's like to have to suck up to people you can't stand just 'cause they have money. You don't know what it's like. Never havin' any clothes. That dress I married you in was a hand-me-down from a snotty rich cousin I hated. You can be young without money, but you can't be old without it. Where did I fail you? Where did I make my mistake? Make that your last drink until after the party, please honey!

 * Maggie: I think I made my mistake when I tried to tell you about Skipper. That's where I made my fatal error.
 * Brick: Maggie...
 * Maggie: I never should have confessed...
 * Brick: Maggie, now you shut-up about Skipper. I mean it, you got to shut up about Skipper.
 * Maggie: The laws of silence won't work about that. Not about Skipper and us. It's like lockin' the door on the fire in hopes of forgettin' the house is burnin' - but not lookin' at a fire doesn't put it out. This time, I'm gonna finish. That night in a hotel room, Skipper and I...
 * Brick: I don't want to hear about it.
 * Maggie: Why won't you face the truth just once about Skipper? About me? About yourself?
 * Brick: Do you want me to hit you with this crutch?
 * Maggie: You're still blamin' me for Skipper's death.
 * Brick: Now don't you know that I could kill you with this crutch?
 * Maggie: Good Lord, man, d'you think I'd care if you did?
 * Brick: Skipper and I had a friendship. Now why won't you let it alone?
 * Maggie: It's got to be told.
 * Brick: But I don't want to hear it.
 * Maggie: It's got to be told and you never let me tell it. I love you, and that's worth fightin' for. Not Skipper. Skipper was no good.
 * Brick: Maggie!
 * Maggie: Maybe I'm no good either - nobody's good. But Brick, Skipper IS DEAD! And I'M ALIVE!
 * Brick: Maggie!
 * Maggie: Maggie 'the Cat' is ALIVE! I'M ALIVE! Why are you afraid of the truth?
 * Brick: Truth! [hurls his crutch at her but misses]

 * Big Daddy: I put up with a lot of bull around here because I thought I was dyin'. That's when you started takin' over. Your loud voice and your old busybody buttin' in here, there, and everywhere. Sashayin' around here, makin' a big noise like a boss. I'm the only boss around here. I built this place with no help from you. And I'll run this place 'til the day I die. Now is that plain to ya, Ida? Is that perfectly clear to ya? Now I ain't gonna die. There ain't nothin' wrong with me but a spastic colon! Made spastic, I reckon, by all the lies and liars I've had to put up with around here. And all the hypocrisy I've had to live with these forty years I've lived with you.
 * Big Mama: In all these years, you never believed I loved you. And I did. I did so much. I did love you. I even loved your hate and your hardness.

 * Brick: Somethin' hasn't happened yet.
 * Big Daddy: What's that?
 * Brick: A click in my head.
 * Big Daddy: Did you say "click"?
 * Brick: Yes sir, the click in my head that makes me feel peaceful.
 * Big Daddy: Boy, sometimes you worry me.
 * Brick: It's like a switch, clickin' off in my head. Turns the hot light off and the cool one on, and all of a sudden there's peace.
 * Big Daddy: Boy, you're, you're a real alcoholic!
 * Brick: That is the truth. Yes, sir, I am an alcoholic. So if you'd just excuse me...
 * Big Daddy: [grabbing him] No, I won't excuse you.
 * Brick: Now I'm waitin' for that click and I don't get it. Listen, I'm all alone. I'm talkin' to no one where there's absolute quiet.
 * Big Daddy: You'll hear plenty of that in the grave soon enough. But right now, we're gonna sit down and talk this over.
 * Brick: This talk is like all the others. It gets nowhere, nowhere, and it's painful.

 * Big Daddy: Now, why do ya drink?!
 * Brick: Give me my crutch.
 * Big Daddy: Tell me first.
 * Brick: No, you give me a drink first and I'll tell ya.
 * Big Daddy: Tell me first! First you gotta tell me!
 * Brick: All right, disgust!
 * Big Daddy: DISGUST WITH WHAT?
 * Brick: You strike a hard bargain.
 * Big Daddy: Boy, do you want liquor that bad?
 * Brick: Yes, sir. I want liquor that bad. [Big Daddy hands him his crutch]
 * Big Daddy: Now tell me, what are you disgusted with?
 * Brick: Mendacity. You know what that is. It's lies and liars.
 * Big Daddy: Who's been lyin' to ya? Maggie? Has your wife been lyin' to ya?
 * Brick: No. Not one lie, not one person. The whole thing.

 * Brick: That's what you hated. Bein' shut out.
 * Maggie: Not by the crowds, baby. By you, by the man I worshipped. That's why I hated Skipper.
 * Brick: You hated him so much that you got him drunk and went to bed with him.
 * Big Daddy: [After a long pause] Well, is that true?
 * Maggie: Oh Big Daddy, you don't think I ravished a football hero?
 * Brick: Skipper was drunk.
 * Maggie: So were you most of the time. I don't seem to make out so well with you.
 * Brick: Are you? Are you trying to say that nothing happened between you and Skipper?
 * Maggie: You know what happened!
 * Brick: I don't know what happened. I don't know, Maggie. Now I wasn't there. I couldn't play that Sunday. I wasn't in Chicago. I was in the hospital...
 * Maggie: But Skipper played. Oh, he played all right. Played his first professional game without Brick...Without you, Skipper was nothin'. Outside - big, tough, confident. Inside - pure jelly. You saw the game on TV. You saw what happened.
 * Brick: But I didn't see what happened in Skipper's hotel room. That little episode was not on TV. Go ahead, tell Big Daddy why you were in Skipper's room.
 * Maggie: He was sick, sick with drink and he wouldn't come out. He busted some furniture and the hotel manager said to stop him before he called the police. So I went to his room. I scratched on his door and begged him to let me in. He was half-crazy, violent and screamin' one minute and weak and cryin' the next. And all the time, scared stiff about you. So I said to him, maybe it was time we forgot about football. Maybe he ought to get a job and let me and Brick alone. I thought he'd hit me. He walked toward me with a funny sort of smile on his face. Then he did the strangest thing. He kissed me. That was the first time he'd ever touched me. And then I knew what I was gonna do. I'd get rid of Skipper. I'd show Brick that their deep true friendship was a big lie. I'd prove it by showin' that Skipper would make love to the wife of his best friend. He didn't need any coaxin'. He was more than willin'. He even seemed to have the same idea. [pause] I was tryin' to win back my husband. It didn't matter how. I would have done anythin' - even that. At the last second, I-I got panicky. Supposin' I lost you instead. Supposin' you'd hate me instead of Skipper. So I ran. Nothin' happened. I've tried to tell him a hundred times but he won't let me. Nothin' happened.
 * Brick: Hallelujah - Saint Maggie! (He raises his drinking glass)
 * Maggie: I wanted to get rid of Skipper but not if it meant losin' you. (To Big Daddy) He (Brick) blames me for Skipper's death. Maybe I got rid of Skipper. Skipper went out anyway. I didn't get rid of him at all. Isn't it an awful joke, honey? I lost you anyway.

 * Big Daddy: What are you runnin' away from? Why'd you hang up on Skipper when he called you? Answer me. What did he say? Was it about him and Maggie?
 * Brick: He said they'd made love.
 * Big Daddy: And you believed him.
 * Brick: Yes.
 * Big Daddy: Then why haven't you thrown her out? Somethin's missin' here. Now, now why did Skipper kill himself?
 * Brick: 'Cause somebody let him down. I let him down. When he called that night, I couldn't make much sense out of...There was one thing that was sure. Skipper was scared. Scared! It would happen that day on the football field, that I'd blame him, scared that I'd walk out on him. Skipper afraid - I couldn't believe that. I mean inside, he was real deep-down scared. And he broke like a rotten stick. He started cryin': 'I need you.' He kept babblin': 'Help me! Help me!' Me help him? How does one drownin' man help another drownin' man?
 * Big Daddy: So you hung up on him.
 * Brick: And then that phone started to ring again. And it rang and it rang and it wouldn't stop ringin'. And I lay in that hospital bed. I was unable to move or run from that sound and still, it kept ringin' louder and louder! And the sound of that was like Skipper screamin' for help. And I couldn't pick it up.
 * Big Daddy: So that's when he killed himself.
 * Brick: Yep. 'Cause I let him down. [Tears well up in his eyes] So that disgust with mendacity is really disgust with myself. And when I hear that click in my head, I don't hear the sound of that phone ringin' anymore. And I can stop thinkin'. I'm ashamed, Big Daddy. That's why I'm a drunk. When I'm drunk, I can stand myself.

 * Big Daddy: But it's always there in the morning, ain't it — the truth? And it's here right now. You're just feelin' sorry for yourself. That's all it is — self-pity. You didn't kill Skipper. He killed himself. You and Skipper and millions like ya are livin' in a kid's world, playin' games, touchdowns, no worries, no responsibilities. Life ain't no damn football game. Life ain't just a bunch of high spots. You're a thirty-year-old kid. Soon you'll be a fifty-year-old kid, pretendin' you're hearin' cheers when there ain't any. Dreamin' and drinkin' your life away. Heroes in the real world live twenty-four hours a day, not just two hours in a game. Mendacity, you won't... you won't live with mendacity, but you're an expert at it. The truth is pain and sweat and payin' bills and makin' love to a woman that you don't love any more. Truth is dreams that don't come true and nobody prints your name in the paper 'til you die... The truth is, you never growed up. Grown-ups don't hang up on their friends... and they don't hang up on their wives... and they don't hang up on life. Now that's the truth and that's what you can't face!
 * Brick: Can you face the truth?
 * Big Daddy: Try me!
 * Brick: You or somebody else's truth?
 * Big Daddy: Bull. You're runnin' again.
 * Brick: Yeah, I am runnin.' Runnin' from lies, lies like birthday congratulations and many happy returns of the day when there won't be any.
 * Big Daddy I'll outlive you. I'll bury you. I'll buy your coffin... [stops and grabs at his belly] This pain - keeps grabbin' at me. It's death, ain't it? Answer me! The truth!
 * Brick: You said it yourself, Big Daddy. Mendacity is a system we live in.

 * Big Daddy: I suddenly noticed that you don't call me Big Daddy any more. Ah, if you needed a Big Daddy, why didn't you come to me? You wanted somebody to lean on. Why Skipper and why not me? I'm your father! I'm Big Daddy. Me! Why didn't you come to your kinfolks, the peoples that love ya?
 * Brick: You don't know what love means. To you, it's just another four letter word.
 * Big Daddy: Why, you've got a mighty short memory. What was there that you wanted that I didn't buy for ya.
 * Brick: You can't buy love! You bought yourself a million dollars worth of junk. Look at it. Does it love you?
 * Big Daddy: Who'd you think I bought it for? Me? It's yours. The place, the money, every rotten thing is yours!
 * Brick: I don't want things! [pushes down and smashes vases, an old athletic trophy and other accumulated objects] Waste! Worthless! Worthless! [destroys a life-sized poster of himself throwing a football and then breaks down in a fit of uncontrollable tears]
 * Big Daddy: Don't, son. Please don't cry, boy. That's funny. I never saw you cry before. How's that? Did you ever cry?
 * Brick: Can't you understand? I never wanted your place or your money or any—... I don't wanna own anything. All I wanted was a father, not a boss — I wanted you to love me.
 * Big Daddy: I did and I do.
 * Brick: No. Not me, and not Gooper, and not even Mama.
 * Big Daddy: That's a lie. I did love her. I give her anything, everything she wanted.
 * Brick: Things. Things, Papa. You gave her things. A house, a trip to Europe, all this junk, some jewelry, things. You gave her things, Papa, not love.
 * Big Daddy: I gave, I gave her an empire, boy.
 * Brick: The men who build empires die, and empires die, too.
 * Big Daddy: No. No, it won't. That's why I've got you and Gooper.
 * Brick: Look at Gooper. Look at what he's become. Is that what you wanted him to be? And look at me. You put it very well indeed. I'm a thirty-year-old kid, and pretty soon I'm gonna be a fifty-year-old kid. I don't know what to believe in. Now what's the good of livin' if you've got nothin' to believe in? There's gotta be some, some purpose in life, some meanin.' Look at me. For the sake of God, look at me before it's too late. For once in your life, look at me as I really am. Look at me. I'm a failure. I'm a drunk. On my own in the open market, I'm not worth the price of a decent burial.
 * Big Daddy: You and Gooper and the rest of ya, blamin' me for everythin', huh?
 * Brick: Nobody, just...We've known each other all my life, and we're strangers. Now you own twenty-eight thousand acres of the richest..., you own ten million dollars, you own a wife and two children, you own us but you don't love us.
 * Big Daddy: In my own way, I've...
 * Brick: No sir. You don't even like people. You wanted Gooper to have kids. You wanted me to have kids. Why?
 * Big Daddy: 'Cause I want a part of me to keep on living. I won't have an end with the grave.

 * Brick: Why you heard what Big Daddy said? 'That girl's got life in her body.'
 * Mae: That's a lie.
 * Brick: No. No, truth is somethin' desperate and Maggie's got it. Believe me, it is desperate and she has got it.
 * Mae: [to Gooper] Why don't you say somethin', honey?
 * Gooper: All right, honey. SHUT-UP!
 * Brick: Maggie?
 * Maggie: Yes?
 * Brick: Come on up here.
 * Maggie: Yes, sir. [at the door to their bedroom] Thank you for keepin' still, for backin' me up in my lie.
 * Brick: Maggie, we are through with lies and liars in this house. Lock the door!

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:16, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 05:40, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
