Cort McCown: Quint

Quotes 

• [Quint walking into the New Year's party] 

  Quint : Quinton is in! Let the fun begin!

• Quint : [to Ronald]  Oh, Return of the Living Dred.

  Ronald Miller : [walks over with a bat]  Why don't you lay off?

  Quint : Why don't you go back where you belong, hose head.

  Ronald Miller : Take your hands off Kenneth or I'll break your arm. Your pitching arm.

  Quint : Oh yeah? Don't make me laugh, lawn boy.

  Ronald Miller : Let go. NOW!

  [slams the table with the bat] 

  Quint : [Let's Kenneth go] 

  Ronald Miller : You broke your arm once before, remember? You fell out of our tree house. Kenneth picked you up and we carried you 12 blocks to the hospital.

  Kenneth Wurman : Yeah, you cried all the way.

  Ronald Miller : We were all friends then, remember? And now you want to end his life because he's talking to Patty on your side of the cafeteria. Oh man, that's stupid. I know cuz that's where I wanted to be. On your side, with your crowd. But I messed up. See, I tried to buy my way in. But Kenneth, he's not trying to buy anybody. He's just trying to make friends *being* *himself*. Cools, Nerds, your side, my side, man it's all bullshit. It's just tough enough to be yourself.

• Quint : I've learned to appreciate the finer things in life. I even travel with my own wine. You never know the quality you may encounter at a soiree.

  Fran : [smells the wine and coughs]  Very classy.

  Quint : [takes a swig out of the wine bottle]  Mm-hmm. I'm into class. It's my new thing.

• Quint : Ronald Miller? He couldn't get nailed in wood shop.

• Quint : [to Ronald as he's sitting in the popular section of the cafeteria]  . Aren't you in the wrong section? *Losers* are to the left!

  Cindy Mancini : Then, I guess you'll be making a right.

  [Quint gives her a look] 

  Cindy Mancini : That's the *asshole* section!
