Quotes
-
Ned McKlusky : Since that boy got back from that place up there he ain't been worth a tinker's damn. He wants to be like an old tomcat. He wants to prowl all night and sleep all day. Ain't been able to get a lick of work out of him ever since he got back down here.

Ned McKlusky : Don't let him talk like that in front of my granddaughter. You rat-faced bastard!

Gator McKlusky : [back from jail] You want some breakfast, girl?
Suzie McKlusky : I done ate before you got up.
Ned McKlusky : [more faults found] Yeah! What time did they wake you up in that place?
[Gator laughs]
Ned McKlusky : You know, you hang around with murderers and thieves and crooks and Lord knows what else. Them ain't nice people for you to hang around with.
Gator McKlusky : [laughs] I'll try to remember that, Pop, it's a good idea.
Ned McKlusky : You done lost all your respect for quality. Now you name me one thing of quality that you can do today.
Gator McKlusky : Licence plates.
Ned McKlusky : Licence plates?
Gator McKlusky : Yeah. I can make quality licence plates. I was gonna make one of them personalised ones for you. But I didn't know how to spell "senile."
Ned McKlusky : Senile, am I? I'm gonna have to take you down a notch or two, Gator! How'd you like I put a Dutch rub on you, right now, huh?
Suzie McKlusky : [laughing merrily] Do it, Grandpa! Do it, Grandpa!
Ned McKlusky : And you, young lady, mind your manners. Gator, this child's been out of school too long.
