Quotes 

• Eno : It has the singularity of outsider art,though the conscious rejection of spatial dynamics could only come from an intimacy with the conventions of picture-making.

  Jerome : Are you kidding me?

• Jimmy : [to Jerome]  So... Who do you like?

  Jimmy : [Jerome is confused by the question, so Jimmy rephrases it]  Who's your favorite artist, Jerome?

  Jerome : [Uncomfortable pause]  Maybe, Picasso?

  Jimmy : I see... Very good... Our old friend "Pig-Ass-Hole," the nasty little dwarf who went his whole life without a single original thought... I presume you're joking, right?

  Bardo : [Jerome is too uncomfortable to speak, but Bardo nonchalantly chimes in]  Jimmy's a Strathmore grad.

  Jimmy : Just look at me now!... Just think, Jerome, some day all this could be yours. You're going places, young man. I can feel it. But you really need to take some lessons in sucking cock and licking ass. Otherwise you might find yourself rotting away in some shit-hole, postponing suicide for the slim chance that you might one day, possibly, see some glorious plague or pestilence bring horrible suffering to your hateful species.

  Jimmy : [Jerome and Bardo look at each other in shocked silence, then let out uncomfortable snickers]  What are you smiling about?

  Jimmy : [Jerome only shrugs, an uncomfortable grin etched on his face]  Laugh away, laughing boy! I will stomp on your guts till they shoot out your ass! I will bury you alive and shit on your grave!

• Jerome : You were right about art. It's all about the cock-sucking.

  Jimmy : It's not what you do, but who you blow.
