BROCK (Julian Burton): Walter has a clear mind. Someday something will enter it, feel lonely, and move on.

BROCK: I am proud to say that my poetry is understood by that minority which is aware.
WOMAN: Aware of what?
NAOLIA (Jhean Burton): Well, not of anything, stupid, just aware!

BROCK: Where are John, Joe, Jake, Jim, jerk? Dead, dead, dead! They were not born, before they were born, they were not born. Where are Leonardo, Rembrandt, Ludwig? Alive! Alive! Alive! They were born!

ALICE (Judy Bamber): I'm a model. I only charge $25 an hour. Would you like to do me?

LEONARD (Antony Carbone): You can see the direction his "realism" takes - it's unhealthy!

WALTER: I didn't mean to hurt you, Lou. But if you'd have shot me, you'd be moppin' up my blood now.

BROCK: To be uncreative, you might as well be in your grave.

Beatnik: I saw a statue once. It was called, "the third time Phyllis saw me, she exploded."
Beatnik's Friend: Man, what kind of statue was that?
Beatnik: I dunno, it was made out of driftwood and dipped in fluoric acid. Very wild.

BROCK: Life is an obscure hobo, bumming a ride on the omnibus of art.

ALICE: You could use a little more heat around this place...!
WALTER: It's bad for the clay! You'll get used to it!
