- Arthur Pope: Your mother has arranged things with your grandfather, alright- call him. And I think you have some friend's around here.
- Annie Pope: I love you, baby.
- Arthur Pope: We all love you. Now, go out there and make a difference. Your mother and I tried. And don't let anyone tell you any different.
- Harry Pope: [the family car circles 'Michael' before exiting down the road] Bye, Danny!
- Michael: Now, I have no right in telling this to you. It's dangerous for you and it's dangerous for them, but i'm sorry i just couldn't stop myself. You can do what you want to, you can tell your dad; anything, i don't care. I just needed you to know... I don't know what i'm doing, and i love you.

- Lorna: Well, they wouldn't let me take auto mechanics, and I didn't have time to take the issue to the Supreme Court.
- Michael: Aren't we supposed to question authority? You taught me that! Who do you think you are, General Patton?
