“Telling the truth can be dangerous business. Honest and popular don't go hand in hand. If you admit that you play the accordion no one will hire you in a rock 'n' roll band. But we can sing out hearts out. And if we're lucky, then no neighbors complain. Because life is the way we audition for God. Let us pray that we all get the job.”

Dustin Hoffman - Chuck Clarke
Warren Beatty - Lyle Rogers

“The job I'm talking about takes brains and integrity. It takes more guts than there is in 50 salesmen. It's the hardest job in the business.”

Edward G. Robinson - Barton Keyes

“You see, there are two kinds of people in this world: the workers and the hustlers. The hustlers never work and the workers never hustle...”
Bryan Brown - Doug Coughlin

“Honest work. Let me tell ya somethin' about 'honest work'. When somebody says they got 'honest work', you know what they got? They got a shit job, that's what they got.”
Mickey Rourke - Charlie

“I'm Joe. I pay a day's pay for a day's work. I pay on Fridays. I'll give you a little something today but your first real payday is next Friday. We start about six in the morning, quit at one or two and if we work through dinner or get rained out, I pay for the whole day. Does that sound fair enough?”
Nicolas Cage - Joe
